Kermit de frog here

Coming to you live, from the wilds of Nevada, where the family reunion has begun. My sister and I drove here this very day. We brought along my children, of course. We left this morning, sometime between 6 and 7 am, which means that I was up at 5. Now I am a zombie. Everyone who is related to me on my Mother's side is here, or shall be tomorrow.
Johanna and I are sequestered in our room, awaiting the pizza delivery man. My children are running off with cousins, so it's quiet here. The richer members of our entourage are going out to eat Basque Food at an expensive restaurant. Like I said, me and Jo are poor.
We are also sunburned. When we arrived today, we sat out in the sun with chilled white, and cousins. Now we are red.
Have I MENTIONED THE TIREDNESS?
Therefore, I shall allow Jenn to speak a few words to you:

------
Hello, fellow readers. This is Kelly's cousin, Jenn. We are together in the middle of nowhere, Nevada. We haven't seen each other in many years and so our entire extended family has descended on this resort/casino in order to wreak havoc on the Nevadans. I am guest blogging for Kelly since she wants to let you all know that we are here, doing nothing. So far we are waiting on the pizza and playing with a camera. And at the moment she is photographing me, which I am sure she'll post in order to prove that I exist. Don't you wish you were part of our family?

In fact, things have gone in a typical family fashion. So far there are many, many of us and very, very little brain. See, we all like to talk and make much noise and merriment but not a single one of us is capable of making a decision. So we all talk about ALL of the possible options but then none of us actually make any decisions. So come, be a bit crazy with us!

paj....come come! you'd fit right in and we'd just love you to bits!

Kelly and Jenns, aren't you glad you are part of this family? Cause how else could you get so frustrated and love us all at the same time? In this family, we reserve our rights to every possible option...or not if we want. Whatever!
