WEEK IN REVIEW


The Ross household enjoyed a lovely visit from the Rosses of Kentucky this weekend. Madeline and Meredith have seemingly dropped "baby" in front of Edwin's name which means that Edwin must be growing up. We did a combo celebration of Mindy's 30th birthday and Valentine's Day. It was quite fun! I made a new dessert and it turned out quite well. Let's just say German chocolate cake mix, Eagle Brand milk, caramel ice cream topping, cool whip, and toffee chips. YUM!!! Click on "dessert" above for the link to heaven. HA! We got to see the webcam in action b/w Mindy's laptop and Grandma's computer. Awesome idea and it really worked well. Matt was pretty excited when we finally saw Dave and Grandma on the computer screen and he let out a scream. Well, this caused poor Edwin to lose it, full out tears and screaming. Sorry Edwin, I guess you haven't been around for a Steelers game yet to see Uncle Matt in full excitement. Lent has begun which means there is no chocolate eating or beer drinking for Matt and me. I am interested to see if this means that there will be some weight loss as well. After dinner on Wednesday, Matt announced that is was time for bathtime. Madeline, 'why do we have to get a bath?'. Matt, 'b/c you stink'. Looking at the bowl between Matt and herself Madeline replied, 'eh, I think it's the shrimp!'. Funny. And finally, Madeline had her haircut for the first time professionally. She was the perfect little lady there. And it turned out so nicely. For those of you who see this in action, I have included a video of Meredith calling for Uncle Dave. "DAVE, WHERE ARE YOU, DAVE?"
