Hello ladies~ Loving the new thread and all the amazing decorations everyone's posted thus far....
I know this has already been posted once or twice....
but it never hurts to see this picture again....and again....and again..... 
Karena~ Great to see you! Sorry that you've had a bad week, and hope things look a little better tomorrow. Remember that we're always here with a listening ear, a shoulder to lean on, and a little Robcrack and silliness for distraction.
Lulu~ Happy Birthday to your sweet Babyboy, and congrats on the milestone of his first birthday! I'll try to watch the video Sunday evening when I have a bit more time to catch up on my Lexing. Hope all is well with you and your family.
Susie~ Glad you all have made it safely through the first leg of your trip, in spite of random east coast earthquakes (and not so random hurricanes). Being in Lexington just now, you're really not all that far from
Newjen, Jenn Jenn, or myself. I hope you enjoy spending some special bonding time with DaughterDear over the next few days, and we look forward to your regular megaposts when you return safely home.
Ginnie~ Glad to hear your weather is okay and that Irene passed you by. Uh oh.....I probably won't have time to read the
Arms update until Sunday evening, and I'm a little concerned by your comment.
. I'll let you know my thoughts once I've read it.
Amy~ Thanks for continuing with the Facinelli Friday updates--I can't think of a better way to celebrate our Fridays.
Newjen~ We're sending postive vibes and thoughts your way for some much needed rain, without all the destruction from the winds and debris from Hurricane Irene. Stay safe sweetie. I'm glad to hear your two oldest had a good start to school. Is your youngest excited about starting Kindergarten? You probably won't know what to do with yourself that first day, with seven or eight hours of solitude. I love me some Daniel Gale as well. I actually preferred the movie
The Bad Mother's Handbook to
How to Be, although Rob was especially adorkable in both movies.
Brenda~ We're always glad to read your posts, whenever you have a chance to check in. How are the kiddos liking school so far? I did lurk a bit on the Gutter thread recently with all the talk about Edward's "longevity" and "recovery time"; and found all the references to the sea, sailors, tugboats, and Bella's dock very creative and hilarious.
Suzan~ I'm glad you enjoyed watching
How to Be and seeing Rob at his adorkable best. I have to agree with
Newjen.... if you enjoyed How to Be, you would probably be also be enthralled by Art in
The Bad Mother's Handbook. I enjoyed Bad Mother's Handbook even more, and fell in love with the sweet, earnest, endearing, and adorkable Art. I found the storyline of Bad Mother's Handbook very compelling, with some interesting female characters alongside, as well. Have you made any more decisions regarding your Master's, and how to proceed with your coursework?
Caryn~ I hope you've had a safe trip for work, and sorry you didn't have time to meet up with
Sandy. I hope your foot feels better soon....having an icy cold vampire close by would probably help with the pain and inflammation. The Bel Ami stills are just amazing. I'm assuming by your mention of "the bathhouse scene" (which means nothing to me), that you
did read the book on which Bel Ami is based? If so, maybe you already posted your thoughts here and I missed them, or I've just forgotten. What did you think of the book?
Marielle~ The Bel Ami stills are killing me! Thanks for sharing them, and especially the positive news that it seems like there may be an actual release date for Bel Ami in our future.
We'll keep our fingers crossed. Have a lovely weekend!
Missp~ Have a great time on your date hon, and enjoy your weekend!
Christina~ We'd love to see your Twiward cutout at the Halfway House and he should be displayed prominently.
I'm counting down the days to the WFE premiere myself (whenever in September it is...) I just listened to the WFE soundtrack again after not hearing it for weeks, and I'd forgotten how absolutely beautiful it is.
The Help was a great movie with a ton of amazing performances by those wonderful female actors, and a pretty darn good book-to-screen adaptation, as well. Hope you and
Ginnie have fun, and we look forward to reading your thoughts about the movie.
Chrissy~ Congrats on getting your driver's permit, and good luck with classes.
Ann Marie~ Hey there! Have a great weekend!
Love to all!
i'll leave it up for a couple of days then if you missed it, just message me. 
Thanks for posting the HH b-days list. That was a great idea on Susie's part.
He's so adorable. Thank you for sharing your beautiful video with us.
