Wednesday

Walter & I got my folks to the New Orleans airport for 5am this morning, thank goodness! They had a 7:30 flight scheduled, but were hoping to get on a 6:00 flight instead, and they did make it. They will meet up in North Carolina with my step-sister and her family and then fly to St. Martin, which I'm told is in the Netherlands. We will pick them up late Monday night at the airport. I am sure they are going to have a great time! Here is a picture of Cameron last night with my mom & step-dad.
Speaking of Cameron, he's been in a bit of a situation today! He has a cell phone on his dad's plan and his dad (as I've said before) has a very laid-back approach to most everything and told Cameron not to worry about how many calls or texts he uses and that when the bill "looks different," then he'll adjust the plan. Well, this month the bill is going to look different! Cameron looked up his bill balance on the phone today, which i'm sure is for their whole family, but it shows $1,100!! Last bill paid shows $270, so I'm guessing this is "looking different!" My friend, Lesley, is a former employeee of the phone company, so she gave me some good advice on how to try to get the phone company to cancel some or all of the extra charges, so I passed that information on to Neil. Cameron is worried and upset, but I told him he didn't do anything wrong. He's asked Neil several times about how much he can use the phone, but was told not to worry about it. I'm glad that is his phone bill and not mine! And hey, I suggested unlimited texting in the beginning for $20 a month, but who listens to me?? After 5,842 texts this month, they now have unlimited texting!

And speaking of Lesley, Cameron & I stopped by to visit her and her boys after Cameron's orthodontist appointment near her house. It has been about 3 years since i've seen her and it was WONDERFUL to see her today!! Lane was sleeping but I did get to talk to him for a minute by busting up in the bedroom where he was sleeping and it was obvious he has tripled in size since I last saw him! Ryan was sleep walking and wasn't awake enough to chat, but he sure is a cute little boy! I hope Lesley & Mike will come out soon with the boys and visit us and maybe go for a boat ride!

My friend, Courtney, had an interview this morning with my boss, so i'm excited about that! My friend, Kelly, has an interview later this month. The decision for both jobs will be made in July, so i'll be biting my fingernails until then!! I haven't heard from my other friends who I recommended to see if they are interviewing, but I know that at least one other person has interviewed already. I hope there isn't a lot of competition!

Walter barbequed ribs for dinner and they were really good! He is going to a home owners meeting tonight so Cameron & I are just hanging out at home, probably texting!

I was very relieved to find out that Cameron didn't get in trouble about the phone situation. It's not Cameron's fault since he was smart enough to ask about limits on using the phone, and that Neil was silly enough to say there weren't any!! Gotta love the $20 unlimited texting feature :-)

It was AWESOME to see you and Cameron today!! To me, it was like no time had passed at all... well other than Cameron getting so darn tall and grown up!! Sorry my boys weren't too social today!! Poor Lane got stung by a wasp and was taking a nap courtesy of Mr. Benadryl!!!!!! Trust me, he never takes naps ... he is wayyyy to busy for that, LOL!! And, well Ryan just isn't a good "waker-uper" at all. I think he must get it from me, poor baby! Later I asked Ryan why he didn't talk to you, and he said "I was shy to her!" (Shy + sleepwalking = a not talkative 3 year old!) Give him time though, LOL He is hilarious!! I did tell him about the boat ride coming up, and he is all excited!!

I hope your friend gets the job she interviewed for! That would be fun for y'all to work together!!
