FORMAL!


I am sooooo excited for next weekend, I can't even put it in words! I know how much you all are dying to see our polka dot dresses, so I thought I'd give you a preview of mine with a picture of Zack and me from my sorority formal last night!

Thank you

Hello Family,

I just wanted to say a quick thank you to everyone for helping out with my dad. Even if I didn't speak with all of you individually, I could still feel your love and support. I know that what he had was considered "routine," but there was nothing routine about my dad having a health problem. I mean it certainly hasn't happened in my lifetime.

Jeri, thank you for helping me think clearly on Monday. I don't think I would have been able to do it with out you.

Anyway...I kinda think this may be too serious for blog talk. I'm sure I'll see everyone soon and I'll be able to express myself then.

Sidebar: Are the chicagoans enjoying the beautiful spring weather we're having?

Ok...talk to you soon. Love, Jess. ok.ps...Jamie you looked beautiful in your prom dress!

Jamie's Prom!

So, this past weekend was my junior prom! It was sooo much fun! My friend, Rosey, came in for it which made it even more special, because, as many of you know, he is from Milwaukee, so i obviously don't get to see him very often! So, here are just a couple of pictures! If you want to see more, just let me know! I have lots! See you all very very soon! YAY!

Love, Jamie

Life in A^2

Hello all! So I decided that it is time for me to update you all on the life in Ann Arbor. It's March and there is still plenty of snow! In fact, it snowed quite a bit today. Besides my desire for spring, school is pretty great! All my classes are good...time consuming and really difficult...but good. The work never ceases. I still make time for fun though... tonight I went out to dinner to celebrate a friend's birthday and then my friend James was in a play called "Girl in a Goldfish Bowl", so I went to see that. My spring break was last week, and I went to Boston to visit Jonathan! I'm going to post a picture or two! We had a great time touring the city. We spent an afternoon in Harvard Square, went to Emerson to visit some friends, got a private tour of Fenway Park, walked on some bridges and in some parks, rode the T (a train) and more.

All in all, life is pretty good right now. I cannot wait for the bat-mitzvah! I'm counting down the days...
Alright, here are a few pictures from my first visit to Boston!

Making a post

There seems to be some confusion on how to post, so I am making this post to clarify the process:

1. Log on to the blog (www.dummyline.blogspot.com)

2. In the upper right hand corner of the screen, there is a link called "sign in." Click on that or the following link: sign in

3. Once you get to the blogger start page, there should be a place in the upper right hand corner to enter a username = matt@ettleson.com and password = dummyline

4. Click "Sign in"

5. You are then taken to the dashboard page. In the middle of the page, there is a box entitled slaw dummyline. Click on the "new post" link (it is right next to the green plus sign)

Hope this helps,

Matt

Live From New York...

So it's been a long time since I've posted so I thought I'd give it a whirl. It's been quite busy here in the big apple. I've been very busy at work and lately I've been doing a lot of work with Hulk Hogan. He's the spokesperson for a campaign I'm working on and while he's a blast to work with, his personal drama (if you've been following at all) is bringing a lot of challenges. All in all though I think that this job move was the correct decision and I think for the most part it is going well.
Otherwise, still just enjoying the city. Seen a few good plays recently, new exhibits that just opened here and we even went ice skating in the park a few weeks ago. A lot of traveling ahead. Next weekend Rob and I go to Raleigh, NC for a bat mitzvah and then I go to Minneapolis the following week for work. Can't wait though for Atlanta! Very curious as to how everyone will be decked out in polka dots... :)
Anyway, hope everyone is doing well. See you in ATL! Much love, Jeni
