Closet Bloggers

I was just looking at this page wondering if any of the authors of this blog are closet bloggers who haven't told us all about their blogs so we can check them out. I hereby vote that those who don't have links to a personal blog either come out of the closet and give us their blog addresses or create blogs so that we can see cute pictures of what they are doing. I guess that if people are just unwilling to do that, then they could post on this community blog too (thanks again for setting this up, Jen).
By the way, I don't have any reason to believe that some of you have blogs, except that Amy seemed way too handy at sending that message. Amy, do you have anything to say for yourself? Have a good day, Maggie

"The War" on PBS

Ladies, if you're not watching Ken Burns' new WWII documentary, start now. It goes from tonight to Wednesday night, starting at 8 p.m. each night. It's huge.

WHERE ARE YOU?

Hello All! So randomly yesterday I was going through my emails and actually taking time to read them and I thought I was clicking on a new Jen and Ty blog but was pleasantly surprised to see that it was a girls' blog. What a treat! Thanks for just taking the initiative Jen. I think hens have a tendency to be the first so that is not surprising (I am not sure of that but it definitely sounded good.). I just wanted to encourage everyone to post here. I want to find out what everyone is doing. I just got home from a week-long trip to the Outer Banks, North Carolina with my parents and brother Matt and his family. After spending just this short time in the South, I realized that I may be southern at heart. Everyone was so friendly. It was a sharp contrast to the stiff population of Rochester. Well, just thought I would say hello. It has been a while. I hope you all are happy and well.

Happy Birthday Tori!

That's all...just wanted you to know you are being thought of on this special day!

Blast From The Past

That's right, ladies. Here we are in all our high school glory--the traditional "girlfriends photo" from all three years. I figured that this post was inevitable, and hey, what better way to get things rolling?

Great expectations...

Hello friends...and any other fellow readers! I would like to explain my reasoning behind creating this blog:

1- I have been thinking about how much I miss all of you
2- I love reading Emily, Maggie, and Nicole's blogs...so fun to read updates and see pictures
3- Emily's "recipe sharing" email made me want to have a central place to share (and receive) great recipes, ideas, etc.
4- Martha Fetzer started a blog for our Freshman Year roommates and it is a lot of fun
5- Then.. Ty's sister told me all her friends post something on a group blog every month to keep in touch.
6- I love writing in my blog and think it is something that all should try
7- Everything seemed to be shouting "make another blog" and I thought, why not?

So here's the deal...this is open to all of you to share updates, announcments, invites, recipes, tidbits of inspiration, anything that you want. You can change/edit/customize/add anything you want as well. I hope it will be fun and a way to keep in touch! I love you girls!

Aren't we cute?

I love this picture and wanted you all to see it. Thanks for sharing my special day with me. We are a pretty gorgeous group of women if you ask me!
