Massive Update

Chloe: Lord love a duck!  She hasn't updated our blog since October 25!

Amber: Well, the hurricane and then Daddy was using the camera and camera cord to document our destroyed ceiling, plus she's busy at work... you know how it is.

Chloe: Well, I think I speak for Grams when I say, "that's no excuse."

Amber: Okay, well, on it with it then...

Chloe and Amber's Massive Update

Chloe: We had a great time trick or treating at the mall as a family.

Amber: Why weren't other Mommies and Daddies dressed up like ours were?

Chloe: Mommy said it's because they have sticks up their booties.

Amber: That doesn't even make sense.

Chloe: Yeah, I don't know.  I wasn't really listening.

 Amber: Here we are at Pirate Day at the Brandywine River Museum.  We had fun making pirate crafts, seeing art, listening to pirate stories and touring the grounds.

 

Chloe: I really liked seeing the animal sculptures and listening to you speak to them in their native tongue.

 Amber: Yes, here I am, oinking at the pig.

Amber: MOOOO

 Chloe: Here we are, celebrating Simma Simma Founders' Day.

Amber: Are you sure that's how you pronounce it?

Chloe: UM, this is my fourth Founders' Day and it's only your first, so I think I know I what I'm talking about, thank you very much.

 Amber: Sure.

 Amber: Anyway, I had a really good time.  I'm not sure why I wasn't included before.  I was helpful with the raffle, quiet during the keynote, I only colored on the table cloth a little bit, and I was really enjoying the carbohydrates.

 Amber: See?

 Chloe: It was a great day - we got to see our Simma peeps and Mommy bought us buttons and let us wear some of her jewelry.

 Amber: Yes, I wore a Phi Sig pin from the California Alumnae Chapter with a sun on it and one from the Northern Virginia Alumnae Chapter (the state of Virginia).  You chose the Panda and the Democratic Donkey.  I don't know if that's also from the Northern Virginia chapter or a DC chapter and Mommy can't remember.

Chloe: Mommy stuck to representing Philly and wore her Ben Franklin pin, plus a lot of others that she said she wouldn't loan me because she had "earned" them.  Whatever.

Amber: It was a great day.  I loved when you reprimanded the sales woman for not selling Simma Simma shirts for kids.

Chloe: Well, really.  My FOURTH time.  Can no one plan ahead??

Amber: And here we are, modeling our new Hello Kitty Christmas shirts from Grams. 

Chloe: They are so fab!  Well, that's all, everyone... have a wonderful Thanksgiving and we'll see you again soon!

Amber: Over and out and gobble gobble.
