Aaaaannnnddd the countdown begins! 2 days, 3 hours, and approximately 15 minutes until Kristen and Liam arrive in San Antonio! I'm so excited to see Kris and meet Liam for the first time! :)

There are people who I really miss. My family in Virginia, and friends all over the US. Some of them I haven't seen in 5+ years, and some I just said goodbye to recently. The reason I'm saying this is that one of my dear friends from Hawaii who I miss extremely is coming down here in March! One of my best friends from Hawaii, Sarah, is coming down here and I am elated!

Argh! As Daniel nicely put it, there is a fine line between being tough and being stupid. I was pretty much on the side of stupid all of Saturday at rehearsal. I thought I could just down a bunch of aspirin and my knee would be fine all day. Too bad we started with square dancing in Farmer and the Cowman. My knee was seriously burning all day. I thought I did a pretty good job hiding it until I heard Mrs. Miller say "Why does Shelley look like she's limping?" And that was the end of that. I had to wear a knee brace the rest of the day. Good gosh that thing was annoying! But I'm not letting this get in the way of the musical. End of story.

The Wholehearted Mother's conference is this weekend. That's why Kristen is coming down here. So I have to play the piano at church on Sunday. And Dad's gonna take us up to Houston to the conference to see Annie! If we're lucky, mom and dad will be able to take all 9 of us out to either lunch or dinner while we're up there. Funny, isn't it, that what we think of as a 'small family' really amounts to 11 people. :)

See yall later! *muah*
