Baby sinnergirl at Christmas

Our Bundle Big Bundle of Joy!

Wanted all you guys out there in Sinnergirl world to see how much our newest Sinnergirl has grown. Baby Mama and Daddy are awesome parents...Ryleigh is one lucky girl.

A Christmas Miracle.

Also called, Miracle at Atlantic Station.

Jamie has a credit - yes, a credit - at H&M.

Foto Fun!

Here are the promised photos taken in the Foto Fun booth/sleigh at Dawsonville, GA!

Go forth and shop.

The sinnergirls and mom of sinnergirls, minus shopper-extraordinaire sinnergirl BCB (who had more important things to do), ventured to the North Georgia Outlet Mall in Dawsonville on Saturday. First of all, there were fabulous savings - stores that had everything at least 50% off "the entire store"! Selection was good, the company was even better. During a quick coffee break, the girls spotted one of those Foto Fun booths and decided to capture the moment for all to see. The actual photos from the "sitting" will be posted later, but here's the Flip video of us trying to figure out how to center three of us in a little oval on the screen. Obviously, Malibu forgot the Flip was on and didn't aim it at the screen for much of the sitting...but the audio is worth it anyway. Oh, and at the very end we figured out that we weren't supposed to look at the screen, but at the "Look here!" button. Who knew?

Turkey anyone?

Everyone wants some turkey at Thanksgiving:



















OH! You mean turkey!

We're here and we're thankful.

Greetings all,

Things are going well for the 'Ho family. 'Ho is about to get a second opinion on her progress, and we'll see after that where we go. She still looks alright-mighty-fine and has actually been busy tending to her sickly kitty, Sam, but I'm sure we'll hear something from her soon.

Needless to say, we all have much to be thankful for. Indulge me for a moment while I run through my "side" of the family:

• A healing 'Ho, who has handled this whole thing with grace, a sense of humor and the most accurately spelled text messages ever.
  
• A BCB who has the biggest heart around, a creative design talent that make her clients (and me) go "ah!", and loves her family to no end.
• 'Mo new relatives: welcome Lauren!
• 'Mo tiny relatives: welcome Ryleigh!
• A wonderful new Mommy: way to go Tiffany!
  
• My hubby, who encourages me tirelessly, provides me with incredible art to behold every day, and keeps me laughing. (oh, and provides fabulous design work for me at below-industry rates so that I look good at work.)
  
• My Mom who loves me and I never have to doubt it, and will always let me lay my head in her lap when I'm down or tired. I'll always be her "baby" and I'm glad.
• My stepdad, who thankfully likes to talk golf and politics (like I do), but most importantly, has made my Mom happy.
• My darlin' brother-in-law who thought he was giving me away at my wedding, but found out he was still stuck with me after all. He lets me type pages-long emails and if he rolls his eyes over them, does it when I can't see.
• My oldest nephew who fit right into the role of really good Daddy and is a true joy himself.
• My youngest nephew who has never lost that look of wonder and curiosity that I saw on his face when he was about 3 months old, and will always be my baby (whether he likes it or not).
• There are countless others in extended family, and in-laws for whom I am very very grateful. But they'll have to go on another blog...

Have a happy, blessed Thanksgiving, and may all your stocks go up in 2009!
Malibu
