>>  LOL! So I guess you and Lorraine aren't really the ones
>>  planning the wedding, but merely writing the checks?
>>
>>  I'm sure you're incredibly proud of her.

>>  She is getting married in the national maritime chapel at
>>  Kings Point, and the reception is in the Melville House on the
>>  academy grounds . . . with full naval pomp! By the wedding day
>>  zvic will have minute by minute instructions for the band!

>>  Wow! You and Lorraine sure are busy with all those

>>
>>  Enjoy the festivities!

>>  Dirk used to love building things. His grandfather
>>  showed him how to use a hammer before he turned 5 and he loved
>>  pounding nails. Not sure if he'd still be into it. Also, his
>>  guests tend to be mostly girls and not sure if they'd be into
>>  construction projects either. He invited 4 girls and 1 boy to
>>  his party today. When Dirk told hiim on Friday that there were
>>  4 girls coming and him he said, "Four girls!" Needless to say
>>  he knew all the girls, but it was evident he wasn't as
>>  comfortable around them as Dirk was. They all seemed to enjoy
>>  the Treasure Hunt which kept them busy for 50 minutes.
>>
>>  So..who's wedding are you planning now?

>>  Dirk is getting to what Lorraine calls my

>>  we made small bird houses.
>>
>>  If I remember correctly I took the projects from the
>>  cub scout handbooks.

>>  We're into our fourth wedding planning routine here .
>>  . . except when Grandpa bugs out and goes to play with his two
>>  grandsons (who are getting ready to head down to Disney again
>>  with us).

>>  I'm making you feel old???? I was reading a card he
>>  got from his aunt and in it it says that he's 3 years away from
>>  being a teenager. Now that scared me!
>>
>>  I'm glad I planned a treasure hunt for his birthday
>>  today that has them basically indoors (a few clues are outside)
>>  because it's raining here. Should be fun. Yesterday Rya went
>>  to a birthday party at Chuckie Cheese and I was disgusted. The
>>  kids got tokens and off they went. No one played together at
>>  all. There were 20 kids and I doubt any of them spent much time
>>  with the birthday girl. It just didn't feel right to me. Call
>>  me a traditionalist, but I still like parties at home, even if
>>  it is more work for me.

>>  ...Dirk was born. Yes, folks, in a few short
>>  hours (12:07 a.m. Eastern Standard Time) it's Dirk's birthday.
>>  It's hard to believe that 10 years has passed already and many
>>  of you were around when I Ieft for the hospital. He's grown up
>>  to be a pretty great kid who does well academically and already
>>  has a goal in life -- to be a Marine Biologist. Not sure that
>>  will happen since he may change his mind, but he sure does read
>>  an awful lot about fish! I've attached a photo of him we took
>>  on our trip to Canada this summer. We used this photo when he
>>  entered the National Geographic Kids Magazine contest for a trip
>>  next August to South Africa. Cross your fingers and say some
>>  prayers. He'd love to go and he did a great job with the essay
>>  he had to do for it. They choose 15 kids and 2 teachers and we
>>  think he's got a good chance. Of course, we're slightly biased.
>>  :-) If he does win, it'll be a battle in the Holzman house as to
>>  which parent will go with him. We can't afford to have the
>>  whole family go -- the trip is worth $20,000. They stay at very
>>  luxurious resorts - several hundred per night. I'll be sure to
>>  keep you posted.
>>
>>  Hope you're all having a great weekend!
