A-L-L-E-E

So it's become a regular thing since moving down here to the valley of the sun to have to spell my name out to people. In Snowflake everyone thought Allee was spelled A-L-L-E-E...here they think it's spelled A-L-I or A-L-L-Y or A-L-I-E or A-L-Y or A-7-Y-R or well you get the point. And every time I spell it they say,"Oh that's an interesting way to spell it." [Is that like saying I have a sweet spirit?] "I've never seen it spelled that way." [NO KIDDING!!!] "Ahhh that's cute!" [You should see my face!] And then they proceed to ask,"So it is short for Alison?" [Is that a real question or are you trying to be funny? How in the WORLD would you get Alison with A-L-L-E-E???? It must take some pretty scientific phonetics that I never learned.] The other day a man called and I spelled my name to him and he said,"That is the cutest way to spell it! I have three girls and another one on the way so I'm all into girl names right now. I love it!!!" NO WAY?!!! I LOVE MY NAME TOO!!! So thanks to my mom and dad...wait...ummmm so thanks to my AUNT LASCHELLE for coming up with my rockin' name! {Grandma Kathy, I can't believe you let your oldest daughter let her friend name her youngest daughter.} I thought there was an law or something that said that mom's are supposed to name their kids, ESPECIALLY their youngest, most cutest, most important child. But I guess Aunt Schelle is my 2nd mom so {no} hard feelings! I love you both! I've had some fun times with my moms [and dads]!! Workin' with Uncle Steve and riding on the van to the golf matches! He always made me sit up front with him so I wouldn't get in 'guy trouble'. Thanks Uncle Steve! And now my dad is {trying} to get me in 'guy trouble'!! Would you two get together and figure it out?!!? No wonder I'm so confused...And Aunt LaSchelle...I LOVE HER LIKE, WELL LIKE A 2nd MOM!!!! (She did name me after all!) She is always happy, smiley, AND she always has TREATS!!! I can remember one time that my mom was having a hard time with me and a decision I was wanting to make so she called Aunt LaSchelle. Aunt LaSchelle helped keep my mom calm and knock some sense into me...needless to say it didn't work. I love it when my parents get all together and have a good time...FRIVOLOUS FRIDAYS....ps I'm mad about that...wait til I leave and then it's ALL fun and games.

*I watched Alice in Wonderland for the first time at the Schneider's house.
*Brittany used to tease me that I was going to marry Creston and then we could be real sisters.
*The only time I've ever watched Star Wars was in the boy's room. I was hanging out there and noone would play with me so I watched it...by myself!
*Brittany had a doll that felt like a real baby. You know, glass head, squishy body...Aunt Schelle would help me hold it like is WAS real.

So I guess I've been double blessed...or I just need that much more help!!! I got my first name from my 2nd parents and my last name from my 1st parents...not bad if you ask me! I love you!! ALL 4 OF YOU!!!!
