High Five Friday

1. This week has definitely been difficult for our family. With Grandpa Reed's accident, we've been spending a lot of time at the hospital and hospice.  He's been in and out of consciousness, but it's been nice to hear him talk and joke around when he has been awake. On Monday, he was transferred to a Hospice of the Valley facility near our house. While we know it will only be a matter of time, we are happy at the thought of him being reunited with Grandma Betty.

2. Devin called me one morning this week to tell me of something dumb he did. He now refuses to remind me which morning it was because he doesn't want me to put it on the blog. He ran out of gas on the way to work after dropping Zander off at Jamie's house. Instead of calling his coworkers to help out, he decided to walk a mile to the gas station because he was too embarrassed.

3.  Zander is becoming quite a casanova. Here is Zander and Alice during story time at Barnes and Noble this past week. Zander kept putting his arm on Alice's back. She kept pushing it off. I think he finally wore her down because she finally gave in and let him do it.

4. RHCP Concert. So good, it deserves to be mentioned twice.

5. Monday nights have just gotten more interesting in our house. That's right - Dancing with the Stars All Star Edition has just started. Everyone is really good, with the exception of Kirstie, Pamela, and Bristol. After the first episode, my favorites are Emmitt and Shawn. It will be an entertaining couple of weeks and then the new Bachelor will get started.
