WHUT?????

We arrived home yesterday evening at around 7:00 p.m. last night. After traveling nearly 15 hours total, mom is quite exhausted. This morning Mimi woke up at 5:30 a.m. (she's still on Virginia time) and decided that everyone else needed to wake up also.

Mimi: Mom, can I watch tv???
Mom: NO!
Mimi: WHY NOT???
Mom: Because I would like a little peace and QUIET.

Needless to say Mimi played quietly on the computer but mom was NOT ABLE TO GO BACK TO SLEEP!!! Several hours later mom told Mimi that she needed to get ready for her piano lessons.

Mom: Mimi, you need to put your clothes on.
Mimi: Whut???
Mom: You need to put your clothes on (voice a little louder). Seems that I am always repeating things these days. sigh.
Mimi: What about SEX???
Mom: WHUT???
Mimi: What about SEX???
Mom: WHUT???
Mimi: Oh never mind (heaving a heavy sigh). Forget it.

Turns out Mimi was saying "What about socks?" Either mom is getting old and losing her hearing or it's the lack of sleep that she's not been getting lately or no coffee yet or all three.

WEDDING REHERSAL

In the late afternoon we left Joe's and headed over to the church for the wedding rehersal. The church is located waaaaay out in the boonies of Maryland. Very picturesque tho with the lush green hillside farmland. The only problem with the church they picked is that there is no bathroom believe it or not. Does not quite work too well when one has a 5 year old. I was told that the only restroom available was the one across the street at the restaurant. It's a little trek from the church. It's located at the same place where we had the rehersal dinner pictured above. Here Mimi is enjoying one of her favorite games of tic tac toe with Auntie Setsue.



MORE HORS'IN AROUND

HORS'IN AROUND WITH JOE




GUITAR HERO



When the Wii was done, it was time for Guitar Hero, another game that Mimi loves playing at home. Pictured here are Joe, Mimi, JR (Joe's BFF & best man) and Mari. Whenever Mimi's cousin's are around, mom and dad get dropped like a hot potatoe. She loves being around them soooo much.

HANG'IN OUT AT JOE'S


Yesterday morning after breakfast at The Waffle House, we headed over to Joe's place where Mimi found Mari and Setsue playing with the Wii. Of course she had to join right in. This is the picture she made for herself.
