Wow.

After all the cute baby pics on here, I thought you might find the following amusing. It's me. Looking like a mutated dog, I might add. This was what went into getting my hair just right for my role in H.M.S. Pinafore. The performances are completed, and thankfully I don't have to cry trying to get my hair to detangle anymore. Who-hoo!
















Of course, I have to show you the final product. I'm in the teal. Hooray for the Pinafore chorus girls!!!

Warning

This is for those of you who haven't kept up with the individual blogs some of us have. I've noticed a trend that seems to run in our family that we should all be aware of. Not maintaing our balance. Katy's had the issue, Alyse has, and now so have I. I can tell my own story though.

For those of you who didn't know, I was in a show this past weekend. Gilbert & Sullivan's H.M.S. Pinafore. Too much fun! We're finished as of this afternoon, and I can say it was well worth the time to get back on stage. Anyhow... back to the inability to stay on two feet... OPENING NIGHT. The finale of Act 1. My partner turns, picks me up for a lift, I'm coming down, and my character shoes have no tread. So I fall flat on my back onstage in front of the entire audience. It was amazing! My parents especially loved it - it was reminicent (yes, I know I'm misspelling that - help me) of my senior year in The Mouse that Roared in HS. Thankfully I have the Lindsay ability to laugh at ones' self (what else COULD I do?) and was not seriously injured. New bruise though! Not on my butt this time! Katy, you should congratulate me. =)

Alright. So you've been warned. Watch out for ice, shoes without tread, or just walking around your home. I think we're at a slight disadvantage and need to all be more attentive to this obvious "talent" we possess. And we needed another new post on this blog. =)

CIAO!

New Blogger

FYI...We couldn't hold out any longer. We had to change over to the new google blogger. This won't mean anything unless you post. If you already have a log-in you should receive an email that asks you to create a blogger account. Just do it. Put in your email and then create a password. That's all you have to do. Then you can post away! And please do!

Andrew's Blog

Yet another Lindsay has started a blog! View the world from the eyes and heart of a teenage boy! Scary, I know! But it's sure to be fun!

Breckenridge, CO

You can check out pictures from our recent ski trip to Colorado here! Cousin Kate joined the Orender kiddos on the slope. Connor loves her and she was a saving grace to all of us sick kids. Plus she's hilarious! Ask her about her bruised butt. She'll probably show it to you.

The Orenders Head Home !

Alicia and I packed up today and headed for our 900 square feet of ranch property in Irving, TX. What a joyful day that is a historical landmark for us and Liam.

Alicia is doing a fantastic job feeding and adjusting to the physical changes. Liam is cute as ever - I now understand the love a parent develops for their child. Last night as I held Liam between feedings, I turned to Alicia and said to her with amazement, "I have never fallen in love this fast before in my life."
Here are a few more pics to help you understand why!

Welcome Liam to the Family







Hey Lindsay Clan! It is about time that Alicia and I add some love to the family. It came in the form of William Joseph Orender (Liam) on Thursday, March 8th at 8:08am.
What a spectacular experience it is to be blessed with a life. We are proud to have him as a part of the family and look forward to the next family reunion so we can join the cool kids in the "Baby Compound"!
