friends and family trial run:) (may 2018)

Whoever came up with the concept of "friends and family day" for the opening of a new restaurant is definitely genius. WELL worth the cost!! A bunch of kind and supportive individuals, who aren't going to get mad at the staff when they take too long entering in an order or receive extra onions on a salad they specifically asked for no onions on. Kind souls who are willing to wait extra long to receive their sandwich, quesadilla, or wrap because the first one got dropped out of the oven. Of course, free food is never a terrible incentive, but these are the people who don't mind spending their valuable time, and would have come anyway even if they had to spend their own hard earned money.

When you're about to do something new and crazy and life changing, there's nothing more valuable than a committed support system. Serious gratitude for life for all of these people (and more)!!

Another little miracle, Joseph Benjamin Dueck , arrived in our family September 5 th , 2010 at 3:23pm. Of course, every mom describes the birth of her children as miraculous--I know, I feel that way about each of mine--but in this case Joseph's healthy arrival really did turn out to be something of a miracle. But before I get into the story, I have some catching up to do since I haven't blogged at all about this pregnancy. So ... Here's me on the first day of school which was just two days before Joseph was born. Since I was taking pictures of the kids, James decided I needed one as well. I'm actually glad he did, because I had been meaning to get a picture of my baby "bump" for days if not weeks and hadn't gotten around to it. Of course, I thought I still had plenty of time to make it happen. And just very quickly, I have to throw out some highlights from this pregnancy which for some reason all have to do with Mae ... Mae telling me (during the first tri...
