Well, if I did, they'd be 8 megapixel, and I'd have to resize them using my sister's computer... probably when she isn't home... :) Last night would have been good.  She was on a date.

It's ok Kae... I know you're married (unfortunately).

 who do you think TOOK most of the pictures :-)

Ok whatever... excuses.

Ya'll should move to Charlotte btw.  Housing prices have only fallen 0.2% here, best in the country.

Yeah, I lived with a male stripper.

Charlotte?  hmmm... I might consider it, but I think my sister really has her heart set on Austin.
charlotte is even CLOSER to boston!

just sayin :)
though i'd never live in the south, but i'd visit!

Charlotte is an amazing city...so clean and the weather is amazing!

BTW...there may be a pic or two floating around the web....hubby doesn't mind showing what's his EmbarassedTongue out

Mayhap I should just move to... Boston!  I keep getting closer and closer :D
YES! though i'm not sure you'd survive our winters :)

Philly winters aren't bad at all!

oh god, I forgot about that.  I'd die.  Heat, I can do.  Cold... not so much

Charlotte isn't exactly "the south."  Most residents are Pittsburgh, Boston, and Florida transplants.  We have no accents here.  We're the 2nd largest banking zone in the US second only to NYC.  It's a bigger city than most people think (1.4 million in greater Charlotte) and it's the fastest growing city in the US for the last 5-10 years.  Plus, we have 6 of the top 100 high schools in the country and UNC, Duke, Wake Forest, Davidson, NC State, USC, and Clemson are right up the road.

I have lots of pride for this city... although I plan to move ton Cali in a year ; )

hehe i got in trouble for telling someone from VA he was from the south too. basically, if it's below DC, it's the south to me!

i'd love to visit charlotte, it sounds cool.
winter here can get pretty...long...

but i think it helps me appreciate the beautiful spring, summer and fall.

new england in the fall is spectacular

the year before last while visiting Charlotte, we were at the Christmas Tree lighting in the square and our family was being ourselves...ok, a bit loud and we were asked up on stage to sing Christmas Caroles and were feactured on the local news!

I have also lived in Boston...and the falls are worth it all.  And there is nothing like a 3 foot snow fall that shuts everything down and you just need to shovel yourself out and drink hot chocolate...reminds you that we really aren't in charge at all!  LOVE it!

lol check this out.

Why am I gaining weight after a gastric bypass?

After a gastric bypass, absorption becomes more efficient over time. And so, unless you have dumping syndrome, assume that absorption is not a problem... Read more
