Lisa here... did anyone ever use "gotomypc"? It means that you can log on to your computer through the internet and use it from anywhere. It works like a dream - but has one major fault. It doesn't consider the problems encountered when you have a 10 year-old on your computer at the other end who thinks it is really funny to close the mail that you just opened - or open application windows that you don't want on screen. Stop it Emily - or I will be blogging all day!!!
Anyway - not the point of this post at all.
Although I miss Mark and Emily tremendously (yes even if she messes with my blogging efforts) , one of the bonuses of being in PA at this particular time is that I get to participate in events that I otherwise would have missed. We celebrated my nephew Jack's 3rd birthday - but there is an even bigger event.
Happy 40th Anniversary to my Mum and Dad! 40 years! I can't believe Mum has put up with him that long - and don't tell me you weren't all thinking the same thing. Here is to another 40 - and hopefully most of that will be spent fishing on their own lake in Arkansas.
Last night Dad treated us all to a lovely dinner at a beautiful local restaurant. The photo of Mum and Dad above is from that dinner. Here are the re-united Dowler siblings with some absences...(from left to right) Little brother Alan, Michelle's husband Ryan, Alan's wife Diane (pregnant with twins - we think they are girls), Me and sister Michelle. Mark is missing of course, as is oldest brother Con who was working his butt off pouring drinks in his bar (Sugar) in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Here are some other photos just because my Nan has learned how to download them off the blog. My new nephew Tommy in the first and Maggie, Grandad and Jack opening Jack's birthday presents.

What a lovely treat to be there to share in your family's happy occasion.
Happy Anniversary Lisa's mum and dad! Great to have a family get-together. And doesn't little Tommy look cute. So sweet. Good to have bonus time with your family.
Congratulations to your parents!! That's awesome that you could be around to celebrate these occasions with your family ~ makes seperation from home a little easier to bear. Have a wonderful stay!
40 years is quite an accomplishment! What's their secret! Inquiring minds want to know.
I'm also curious if your business is a secret...I've read your previous posts about your business but can't recall reading what that business is. You don't have to answer...was just curious.
Happy Anniversary Mum and Dad... when ALL the family is around.. this is when it is fun... take care
Hiya - the business isn't a secret at all. We are very proud of our business. You can find it here: http://www.dollsclothes-emilyrose.com
