My home life is officially sans Katie. This is a sad, sad day. There are no pictures today, becacause Katie took her camera with her and I still haven't bought one. But if I were to post a picture, it would be of a very quiet house. Dad upstairs watching TV. Mom downstairs watching TV. And me in my new place (Very exciting. No door yet, but I have walls!) texting Katie all those 20 miles away. So in honor of Katie going away to college, I have compiled a list. Little pieces of advice for my three girls (Katie, Albree, and Melissa) to remember while they are at school:
1. Keep your eyes open for the correct backpack/man combination. You may inadvertantly pass by members of your eternal team if you aren't paying attention.
2. Do not find a boyfriend your first day on campus. Keep your options open.
3. Do not skip school to go to work (I know from personal experience that this is not good for your grades)
4. For the love of Mika, please keep your sense of humor. If any of you three lost that, the world would be a sadder place
5. Do not be a food whore.
6. Lifelines are available any time except Tuesday and Thursday nights. Phone, email, and text are all acceptable forms of communication.
7. Let's be honest. I was not good at college the first time around, so I'm not even going to try and make up anything else. Love you girls and good luck. Keep me "posted" (haha - funny blog joke...)

Katie's Team
Good news. My Internet is finally fixed! So tonight's quick post is just a shout out to Katie's team. Why do I love Katie's team? I am shallow. Can we talk about the amazing streamlined muscles? The abs of titanium (pretty sure titanium is stronger then steel)? The broad shoulders? The line? I know that there is a rule about not coveting thy neighbors team, but Katie, I covet. Shout out to the United States. Take that France!
