Making Haunted Houses....YOU VOTE!

This past weekend, Blair and I traveled to his parent's home in Greensboro. Lee Anne (sister) and Brad (the boyfriend) met us there. We spent the weekend at the GGCC (Greater Greensboro Chrystler Classic) golf tounament. We also celebrated my big birthday #28, can't believe it. 30 is approaching quickly. We had one night of making haunted houses which turned into a competition. We obviously couldn't decide on a winner since we're all so competitive. This is where we need YOUR help. I have posted below, in random order, the three houses made by us over the weekend. We need you to vote so that we can pick an official winner. Send your vote to me. I will announce the winner by next week......

Surgery was a Success...

I know that this wasn't public information, but I (cara) had surgery yesterday underneath my right arm. I found a small cyst there about six months ago and have seen an array of doctors since then. I was very fortunate to have found a wonderful hand and arm specialist that was able to get me in quickly (I have found it very difficult to find a time to schedule surgery or even doctor's appointments). Everything went well, Blair was the one I was worried about; he doesn't do well with needles and hospitals. I've already had an ultrasound, an MRI and a biopsy to all confirm that it's not cancerous. However, now that they have it out, they're still going to take precausiouns and send it off to a lab. I've never had surgery like this (I don't count wisdom teeth). So, needless to say, it was an interesting experience. The anesthesia was quite fun; falling asleep and then waking up and not remembering a thing is really a strange concept. My arm is really soar today but considering what the outcome could have been, we're extremely thankful that this was reletively minor. Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers, we're back to the world of blogging!
