Hiya Ladies! Well I have definetly been MIA lately so I will try and catch you all up on things. The biggest news of course is that my sister had her baby!! Rory John Joyce was born on 1/29 and was 7 lbs 13oz. Me and Sam were both there in Boston to see him be born. My sister went into labor the night before we were suppossed to fly out to Turks and Caicos for a vacation. So we delayed our flight. She was in labor for around 18 hours before they decided that she wasn’t going to be able to fit the baby out the old fashion way so she had a c-section. Both my sister and the baby are doing well and my mom is just going crazy about being a grand-ma! That baby is going to be spoiled rotten!

So after Rory was born me and Sam went down to Turks and sat on the beach for a week. We didn’t do much else except eat, drink, swim and sleep. We did go snorklling once and saw some sea turtles and manta rays so that was fun. It was fun to be back on the beach seems the last time we were was for the ol wedding. we did see one wedding down there and it was so ghetto compared to ours! mostly cuz the guest list just couldn’t compare!

The job is going pretty good…very busy but i am surviving..the kids are cute and that always helps.

hope that you are doing well. Dawn-when are you arriving in chicago and when is your wedding again?  Caitlin-happy birthday! Shira-enjoy your valentine’s day party!! i wish i could attend..ours is still one of my favorite memories! Miss you all tons!

Hey Everyone!  Thanks Shira for sending the e-mail with our user names, it’s been a while!  I’m glad to see everyone on facebook too, I am very obsessed.  Things are the same around here – working, etc.  I play touch football in this social league here and I think of the Champlain ladies all the time!  Still remember seeing “Princess of Power” on the back of Shira’s shirt.  Oh the days!  Anyways just preparing to turn 27 (ugh) and for two weddings I’m lucky enough to attend this year – one being Dawn’s, woot!
