1983 bank stationary

apparently, in 1983 there was a promotion at my parents bank in which you could have some personalized stationary printed.

this is what my dad had made:

i think about this phrase often these days. like today, when we thought ivy was napping but really she was in the bathroom smoothering $50 a tube of medication stuff for my teeth on her legs like thick sticky lotion. at least once a day (usually many more times) i am left scratching my head wondering thinkgs like- how did that paper trader joe's bag get in the bathroom sink and become full of water? who broke the guess who game? or why are there plastic forks and knives thrown all over our complex's laundry room? (a few of todays other examples)

i concede my title, ivy has taken it over and truly is my destryoing angel.

I love it. You are right Cruz and Ivy are ment to hang. Naptime for him is playtime for hours, hopefully some sleep. All of our games are out of reach b/c I was sick of having a pick up session after every "nap". Spill the beans, cooties, candyland--and more all in bed. A gluestick was once mistaken for chapstick. Lovely littlies.

That is a perfect way to describe kids: destroying angels. Wish I thought of that:)

p.s. when is your birthday? This week!? Mine is the 19th! November babies!

ha ha ha! That's my little Odin! And Ashley, you always had a really rambunctious spirit, from what I can recall. No wonder your kids take after you. It will serve them well in the long run because they will have so many fun things to do all the time when they grow up!

and, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

p.s. i have a question for you guys....are you moving back to "da kine." And if so, where you going to be living? Just curious. We are thinking of moving back and looking into maui.

This is kind of random but I wanted to wish you a belated Happy Birthday...It just clicked that you and my husband have the same birthday!!!

Happy birthday, hope it was a good one...can you believe how "old" we are =) It's hard to believe I've known you since we were about 5 years old!!!
