Sunday Sound Out

I'm back from Monterey. As wonderful as it was to get away from real life for a while, and as awesome as it was to collaborate with some amazingly talented authors, it was really nice to come home. I couldn't even get in my door before my kids flung themselves into my arms. I missed them so much!

Here are a couple pictures from California...

















And here's a pic from Halloween...


It's Phineas, Ferb, Candace & Isabella

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And finally, you're ALL invited to my book launch party this Tuesday, November 2nd. It's at The Comedy Sportz Theater in Chicago from 6:30 - 9:30. And since it's for a book about pregnancy and childbirth, what better way to celebrate than with a baby shower? Bring diapers, formula, new/gently used baby clothing, or other baby items to be entered in a drawing for raffle prizes. All donations will benefit Wings (Women In Need Growing Stronger), a non-profit organization helping women and children who are fleeing domestic violence.

* FREE ADMISSION * RAFFLE PRIZES * REFRESHMENTS * GOODY BAGS FOR EVERYONE FROM SUAVE * SIGNED BOOKS * FUN *

I *love* that they dressed up as the Phineas and Ferb crew. P&F are very popular in my house.

I really want to come to your book launch but can't get off work. You should have someone video tape your "stand up" and post it on You Tube for those who won't be able to see it! Good luck - I know you'll be great!

I know you wrote this on Sunday but due to my chaotic week/weekend (my father was hospitalized and had multiple brain surgeries but is home now) and my being out sick yesterday, I just saw this. You made my morning when you posted a picture of an otter! Thank you so much for the smile, I needed it :)

PS I also enjoyed a tasty cranberry limeade at Sonic thanks to the giftcard I won from you :D

Congrats on the new book launch.

What did you oldest two kids do for halloween? Somehow I don't think they missed out on their fair share of candy.

Unknown said...

I LOVE the costumes!!! We love that show! You all are so creative!

Glad your family is healthy once again. Did the older two ever get it?

Ha! Those costumes are awesome! Phineas and Ferb is actually one of the cartoon my son watches that I love- so great.
