I was able to link to it. You guys are so funny. I am looking forward to further siesta fiesta instructions, and I hope I can be there. I suspect there will not be many siestas among the siestas at this fiesta.

I could see it, but the volume (was that SNORING???) was very low.

I love y'all...

Mr. Lee is impressed with the tech level of the video. However, he is a little concerned about the authenticity of it. Beth not talking?! "Real stretch to the imagination!"

OMGosh!!!!!!!!!! This is the funniest thing ever! Listen I didn't know I snored, recently my 3 year old woke me up and said mom, stop making the noise with your mouth! funniest thing ever. . . ohh maybe I shouldn't write this, but Beth reminded me and made me laugh even harder. . ..

I had to watch it two times because I was laughing so hard, my eyes were tearing and I couldn't see. Hilarious.

So hope I can come! The video was hee-hawlarious. I consider myself a silent siesta - I love to read but don't comment much.

By the way, I need an opinion - I have an almost 4 year old and almost 1 year old and study my SS lesson during their naps. So, I was wondering if it still counts as Bible study if you have to tell the 4 year old "be quiet, be still, go to sleep, etc." after every paragraph. Please tell me I'm not the only one!

Love you siestas!

That was AWESOME!! Saw and heard every last snore and word! But...i'm sad! Some of us have already bought our tickets for Louisville '08. Can we have special "siesta seating???" We even thought about flying out to Tx for the San Antonio LPL because we love it there.

It will be one fun time for those going! We will tear it up in KY!

I've been trying to choose my yearly Living Proof Live event to attend & had made up my mind yesterday to go ahead and make hotel reservations in San Antonio and they wouldn't let me do it just yet. I'll check back tomorrow and see what the details are.
I'm SO excited. I'm definitely in!

Saw it here too...hysterical! Already checking schedule...how gracious to allow us to plan a year in a advance...you know the life of a woman all too well. It takes that long for us to plan the lives and events of our families so we can steal away for a couple of days. :)

Whoop! (I knew you'd appreciate the Aggie talk, Amanda) That is the event I was planning on attending in '08 since I live in East Texas. When I first saw the signs I thought "She's going to say San Antonio!" When it did, I said, "Yes!" Sorry for the play by play, but I was quite excited! Can't wait for instructions!

Too funny! The video worked wonderfully here. Maybe too wonderfully. The whole time up to the San Antonio sign I was internally chanting "Phoenix! Phoenix! Phoenix!" Alas. I am happy for my Texas Siestas.

That was so funny! Oh, Amanda - I wanted to share this with you. I thought your top 25 things about your sister was so cool I decided to do that for my sister. I took several days and put together my list, and used one of the items on your list - the last one about donating a kidney or a lung to each other. So i put it in a nice card, and when my sister got it she said she loved it, but we couldn't share organs because she's a positive blood type and I'm negative :-( She didn't have to tell me that - talk about bursting my bubble. Anyway - thanks for your work here - you guys are much loved!!

In Him,
Susan

- wish we all had funny nicknames; then we could all wear t-shirts with our names on back. Here are a few ideas, for the siestas I know well :)

Shelly- Shells
Faith- Faith o' flava
Kate- Kat

so far I haven't been creative enough for everyonelse, I WILL think though:)

The best, best part of that video was the SUSPENSE! WHERE? Where is it going to be???? And finally the card pops up -
The second best part was the siesta-ish state Beth is in. Duh. It's a siesta fiesta. I had almost forgotten the real meaning of the word siesta after seeing it here so often.
The third best part was the really authentic shawl-thingy Beth is was wearing. I think I have one of those I can wear.
Siesta Anna

p.s. maybe we can have siesta snacks, too?

p.s.s. and can we wear siesta party hats?

Please give me more information because I am booking the flight from California! My husband wants to join us and then go with Keith to have Mexican food while us Siestas visit.
Beth, although you have gone through pits in your life, the glory of your cup is overflowing!

Oh well, I'll catch the next one...the next one off to college, I mean! Oh, just kidding. But the following year our next child goes off to college so that will be two years of missing Siesta Fiesta! Please o' please plan it for another time in 2009, other than off-to-college-time! (insert loud whining here).

DD#2 discovered that both mom & dad snored when we vacationed at Disney World. We had a busy day at Animal Kingdom & the family of 5 crashed in one hotel room. She woke up crying- she was dreaming of the lions and heard our snoring & thought they were after her! :0 True story!

Pattie,

I didn't see anyone else respond to your question about when "Sistahs" got changed to "Siestas", so I thought I'd send my first post on this blog. It was after Beth was out here in Albuquerque a few months ago. She was trying to post her May 22nd post and spell-checker insisted that the "sistahs" she had written should be spelled "siestas". It was great timing because of the recent Albuquerque conference, and "Siesta" just stuck. :)
