A late game of Hide-and-Seek

[Can anyone tell who that is in the picture-- besides erica. Is it abby or becky?]

Erica was up past 11. It was ABBY'S fault... Well, mine too.

Abby's over for a few days. She has a teachers' conference in Lancaster, so she's staying with us b/c the drive is MUCH shorter. So, she came last night. She was here for dinner, then she and i went out for some FUN! we went to see "Chicken Little." it was GREAT! we laughed alot. And one of the best parts was-- THE PREVIEW FOR THE NEXT HARRY POTTER MOVIE! it was much longer than any other previews i've seen yet for it. I was put in awe.

Anyway, then we went to Starbucks for some coffee. I stepped out of my comfort zone and got something new. It was yummy-- a peppermint mocha. Then, we went to actually FIND the conference center where she needed to be. Good thing, cuz the first place we stopped WASNT the right place. hehe. so, we eventually found it, went in, and she was able to register already, so she could skip the long lines this morning.

When we got home, Erica was still awake. (Around 9:30 ish i think.) So, we played. We went upstairs and played hide and seek! it was great fun!!! the hall light was on, but then the bedroom and bathroom lights were off... adding to the fun! abby would crawl somewhere to hide, and erica would go find her. Then i'd crawl somewhere and erica would come find me. She's a smart kid. Cuz she KNEW when it was time to follow me and when it was time to follow abby. When erica would look for abby, i would just kinda stand behind, watching. Erica would look at me, but instead of come to where i was 'hiding,' she continued to go look for Abby.

oh, such fun!
