Moments which could have been Better
Forgot poles for tent in Catskills-arrived in dark, rain, brand new puppy! Not fun, always remember the poles!!
Forgot Brooke's suitcase when we went to Orlando.
Kate sells 150 boxes of girl scout cookies-went to deliver, NO cookie form-convinced Dupree must have chewed the form, we deliver the cookies asking people what they ordered. Kate finds the form in the couch cushions weeks later. Yes, we did actually blame Dupree. See the photo in Nov 2009.
