Columbus gathering

[Deannalee]

Hey guys...I wanted to meet up with you today. I was so excited but couldn't get ahold of anyone. I hope you will still be here Sun and Mon. Gosh, I hope someone even reads this! Anyway, I got the message from Christi tonight at 10:30...I figured too late to call you back. I at least got my car paid, groceries bought, and diapers/pullups restocked. My kids Dad picked up everyone earlier today...except Justin....so it was a lot easier to get everything done.

We went to see President Bush on Weds and I had hoped to get my proposal for reform for special needs kids to him, but the secret service guy I spoke with said that no letters or packages could be handed over to him. Big security deal, I guess. Anyway, I took his advice and instead mailed a copy to him at the White House as well as copies to senators and Ohio's Governor. Say a prayer....it will help us all.

Anyway, please let me know what the schedule of events is for the remainder of your visits. I really, really, really want to see everyone. Oh, I don't have a t-shirt. The lady at the hotel said you all had matching Uno Mas shirts. Have fun....and someone, anyone can give me a ring tomorrow.

We were at the park all day yesterday. This morning, we are just finishing breakfast. So far, the plan is to hang out here at the hotel pool (REALLY cold, by the way!!!) and later we are considering a trip to Chuck E Cheese (6pm or so???). There is one right down the road from our hotel. Kathleen is coming from Cincinnati and should be here before noon. We've talked about the zoo, but that may not happen. It's hot and muggy here! We also talked about going back to the same pool we went to yesterday, cause it was BIG fun!!!
We wore our matching Uno Mas shirts yesterday, so today they REEK.....we'll be dressed in a little bit of everything today!! Robin has a Tshirt for sale, size XL....in case you want it.
We haven't discussed what to do tomorrow, but we'll all check out by around 11am.

The GREAT news is that Russell is MUCH better....and cute as can be!!!!!!!

Can't wait to see you and Justin.

Oh yes.....Ladie's Night Out was big fun. The waiter walked right up to the table and recognized that Robin was "easy" and Adrienne was a "lush"......we tipped him anyway! Food was great, company was better, and we all crawled back to the hotel room. Afterward, the only 2 guys went out to eat and to play pool.

Ok.........off to the shower. HUGS!
