Goin' fishin'

We really wanted to do some fun stuff today but the day was already getting away from us when I tried to pin Gene down. Gma and Gpa O can't come for dinner, which we had hoped to do so we could get all the grandmas and grandpas together. Dad called and asked about fishing so we decided to go for that. Gene thought Casey would like to go the most. I'm staying here with Colin to pack. He's fine watching his movies, although he just asked to "go."

Light your candle tonight!

Please light a candle at 8:00 pm, your time, for the Annual Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) Candle Lighting Event. August is SMA Awareness month and so we choose to use the 2nd Saturday in August every year as a time to reflect on those lost, as well as to honor those living daily with SMA.

Temporary Home

Here is our temporary blog home until I can get into our LiveJournal. I like LiveJournal and have used it for years, but I've always felt that BlogSpot has more creativity to it so we may like it here!

It started last evening. I decided to post about our day and couldn't log into our blog. I chalked it up to a glitch on their end and went to bed :)

This morning--same thing! I could NOT get in. It would take longer than normal and then it would come up with the Internet Explorer saying "this page could not be displayed." This is especially weird since I could go to any website except our blog and livejournal.com.

Several other people could get in, but not us. I tried on the boys' Dell (which I usually use), the boys 'old' IBM and Gene's work computer. Huh?

I'm hoping someone can help me figure it out. Gene just reset our router and all that. Didn't work.

Anyone have any ideas???
