Skype

We downloaded Skype to keep in touch with out-of-town family, and it is soooooo cool!  We are making video calls just like they said we would be doing in the future (when we were little).  It is a lot of fun to be able to see everyone when we are talking to them, and it keeps our faces fresh in their memory.  The only down side to it is that you realize how bad you look when you are dressed in your "hanging around the house" clothes and no makeup.  If the calls are a surprise, you don't have time to "spruce" up :)

Averie has decided that she wants to come back to visit and this time she wants to stay a month!  They are all going to try to come at the end of July before school starts.  I don't think she will be able to fit in a month, but maybe another week?  I have discovered the children's arts and crafts department at Michaels.  I didn't realize that they had so many wonderful things to do.  We already bought some stuff, and I am ready to play with it.  I don't know if I can wait for Averie to get here!  I'm glad we didn't go there when she was here.  We would have been in there for hours, and I imagine spent more money than we should.

If you want to know more about Skype, let me know, or you can google Skype and download it for free.  The calls are free between Skype users.  It is simple, fun, and free!  Who could ask for more?
