hi sweetheart-yes,it's me (with Carol sitting beside me) Oh my, we certainly do miss you but know that you are having a grand time. Those two lines have taken me 15 mins to type. Not like the typewriters of old!!!!!! Maybe by the time you arrive home, I"ll have this down pat - the great part about all this "computer learning" is that I will be able to keep up with you on all your travels-HOW GREAT THAT WILL BE FOR ME!!!!! Have fun, dear,take care, and much love, Mima.

Hi Lovie,

Sounds like you are having the time of your life!! I am so happy for you...I bet it feels good to have your feet on solid ground. Life here is a tad slow, especially the St Paul social scene...the word on the street is that it just isn't the same with Chizzel off on her sea adventure!!! Oh well, it's time to leave your mark in Europe...don't disappoint me lovie!!

Love you and miss you!!

Warm Greetings Chiz B. Lou,

It has been H.O.T. here! The humidity has rolled in making all of us look so darn fetching...beads of perspiration and a touch of friz to the hair - a very "fresh - perky" look. Rum and I took the light rail to the Twin's Game last night - what a blast. We were 4 rows behind Home Plate (more importantly, JOE MAUER). They won. Tonight we're going to dinner and then across the street to the Orpheum to see A Chorus Line...should be great. Then of course tomorrow is Father's Day - much love and good wishes to your Daddy-o. We'll be spending sometime with Grampa T...he has been bragging about your adventure to his friends at T & C. He is so cute. Bye, bye for now sugar lump.

xxxxx,

B and Rum

Hey chizzel, my nizzel:).. hope you are feeling ok... Those waves can be really annoying! Be sure to start taking some pics . we are anxious to see some. Also, what deck are you on??Thinking of you all the time and starting to wish my summer away so it will be August 24th:) As your Auntie says.. never drink and delete:)

Love you lots... yo mama

Goodnight Chizzer. Hmmmm...I wonder what you are doing.

Be sure to snap pictures of EVERYTHING. Be careful - never "drink and delete". We'll delete when you arrive "state-side".

..monitored deletion. :)

Chelsea.. I am sooo bummed I missed your call. I told dad that I had an incoming number that said it was a NYC number and come to find out it was you calling me:( So sad..

Dad said your ship was leaving port and there were bagpipes playing.. HOW COOL> We are all so excited for your adventure. Have fun, be safe and stay healthy. Love you lots and miss you tons!

mama

Hi Sugarplum! :) Hope you got some much needed rest and that you're all settled in on the boat! I was soooo excited to hear your voice last night ... Can't wait for our next chat. By that time you'll have lots of updates, I'm sure. <3you!!

Hey C - I'll be the responsible one and hope that you're not drinking and sitting in a room at the bottom of the ship studying very hard. Part of that hope is jealously cause I'm white as the driven snow and need some vitamin D stat!
Take care and be clean (shameless Arrow plug)
