While the boys are away, the girls will play. Sarah and Jenny-Lynn got mom and I hooked on this series called Downton Abbey tonight. We finished all seven episodes in three nights, which would be awesome except that now I have to wait until January to access season two on Netflix. If you find yourself wanting to admire beautiful dresses, laugh at some dry British humor and grow to both adore and despise a cast of characters, all while sitting on the edge of your seat as the plot thickens, then you should totally check it out. And if you get hooked like us and figure out how to connect your internet to some random British server so that you can watch the new episodes as they air, don't tell me what happens. Unless I beg you to. And I might.

Downton Abbey joy...
