Hey everyone!!
I'm so sorry I missed everyone at camp. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to make it.. but I am HUGE and pregnant and about to burst. The heat is definitely no good for me.
I am doing okay though, trying not to complain too much(OH my aching back!!!), and staying off my feet and indoors.
The big news- I am scheduled to go in for my C-section on Tuesday, JULY 15th!
So, (unless something happens before then)- Matthew will be born sometime shortly after noon that day.
I am really excited to have a date now and have been doing any last-minute things I think has to be done. I am nervous, too, though.. surgery is always scary.
I'm just praying that everything goes smoothly and mostly that Matthew is healthy and perfect.
I'm sure I'll be in the hospital for at least 2 days, anyone is welcome to come by of course.
I'll be at Presbyterian Hospital in Allen- its located at 75/ Exchange pkwy in Allen, right on the highway there.

Camp, Pics, and addresses
Hey girls! Thanks for another great camp, to all the girls that are a fixture in my life and the new ones that have joined/rejoined us this year. Other than almost sinking the boat, I think this is the best camp ever and everything else was PERFECT! The accommodations were more than enough space for the HUGE gathering that we have become, the food was FABULOUS, and the company was beyond words!
I would like to post all/as many of the photos to the group album as we can. I think posting to the new photo album I set up recently has more storage than the area on the Yahoo group and I think I got an email that they were thinking of taking that part off the group area anyway. I think I have transferred most of the pictures to the new album, but will double check. SO PLEASE post to the new album and not Yahoo. The link for the photo album is: http://aphi4ever.photoalbum.com. If you want me to post your pictures for you, then email them to me and I will gladly do so. If you would like to post them yourselves (or any others in the future to share) then the login information is as follows - LOGIN: aphi4ever, PASSWORD: bear. I have several albums already set up and most with sub-albums so we can keep all the pictures in the correct area/timeframe. I have already set up an album for Camp Aphi with a sub album for Camp Sink or Swim (not sure yet if that was decided on as the "official" name, but figured it would do for now. Please use this folder to post to. I have already added the few (all of 3...heck, I had intentions of taking more but with all the shutterbugs in the group I figured everything got covered). The main link for the photo album is also a link on our blog. I am still trying to post the video of Deb doing YMCA with her feet!! LMAO!!
I am also going to be looking for a database product that we can incorporate as an add-on to the blog as well. We have a small address list on the current Yahoo group, but would like something with a little more functionality. So, anyone that isn't a member of the Yahoo group, that might not have given me their current contact info (address, hm/cell/wk phone, home/work emails, etc), or that might have moved recently or changed phone #'s..... please REPLY with that information so that we can have an updated list.
Lastly, Shannon and I talked for a bit about Alpha Phi history and what becoming a member means on the ride home. She is very excited to make her addition to the group "official". I am going to give her the link to the international site and try to find my pledge book for her to look at before the ceremony. I think if she knows more of where we came from and what we stand for then initiation will just be that much more special to her. I am so excited to have her as not only my biological sister, but also take that oath that she become part of a much larger sisterhood and share her with all of you as well.
Anyway.....love to you all! Hope to see you all soon and lets not wait a YEAR! Dinner club... I see many emails in the future for you!!! :)
Love in AOE and MUCH MUCH more of mine!

Blogs - Saving vs. Publishing....
Just a quick note (and NO I have no idea why I am still up at 330am!!). Thank you to all the ladies that have written blog material and/or posted comments. For those of you that are writing blogs, make sure to PUBLISH when you are done writing and not just save. If you only save then your blog doesn't actually go public on the site... it sits in a DRAFT state and no one will ever get to see it. LOL
Mattie, you have a draft from 5-16 and Nicole, you have one from 5-26. You can still PUBLISH if you want to. I am sure everyone would love to share. Just go into the "dashboard" and over to posting and you will see a list of what you have written. Those blogs that still show draft....you can open them back up and hit the publish button (I think the actual button is orange). Please let me know if you need any help.

Changes in PHOTOS!!
Hey ladies,
In order to make the blog more efficient and keep the photo viewing updated easier, I have MERGED all the photos that I have to date and made a PHOTO ALBUM to replace the SLIDESHOW feature that I had originally put in the blog. I have also taken the few photos that were shown on the right to save a little space (but I may put a few photos in that area from time to time just to spruce things up).
Click here or note the photo album link to the top right of the screen. I have made separate albums for College Days, Dinner Club, Weddings, Baby Shower, and Camp and will be adding more categories as we go along. If you have photos that you want to add to the online album, let me know and I will give you the login information OR you can send the photos to me and I will make sure they get loaded. So... ENJOY!!!
