Lazy Days of Summer

Eric wanted to test his canoe for leaks so he took me and the girls on the lake. Siggy watched from the bank with Gigi and Pop.

Happy Birthday Uncle Mike

I hope Uncle Mike has a Happy Happy Day!!!Things I remember about my Uncle Mike....
Yes he bought Erin the beautiful purple umbrella and I was green with envy
I used to play with Kristina at his Mechanic shop in Green Forest looking for Rollie Pollies....he never yelled at us or complained we were in the way
I like his smile....he seemed to always be smiling or at least his eyes always look mischevious
One time when I drove to Arizona with Aaron...he put new brakes on my car before he would let us drive back to Arkansas and somewhere along the trip home I found 100 dollars in my glove box....(Helen might have done that)Anyway Happy Birthday to a Great Uncle....

Ingie's Playmate

Ingie had a friend over Monday. They played dress-up, barbie dolls, and all the stuff Astrid doesn't like to play. Ingie says Abby Grace is her bestest most special friend. I think she is too young to know Astrid is also her most special friend....she just thinks she can be her sister. Ingie also worries when Auntie Erin has babies who will be her Aunt. She just hasn't quite grasped the concept that we all wear many hats.

Our Trip

Well we had a nice visit with auntie Hey. All Astrid was concerned about was when she could see Uncle Greg. He was asleep because he had worked the night before. When he woke up he took her to the car parts store with him and she helped him with his "Beast" then he took her for a ride in it. She loved it. Ingrid played with her new mermaid dolls and Erin and I took the girls to the Froggie pool. Ingrid made new friends and had a blast. Astrid sat on the side and wondered when she could go back and see Greg. Gigi got to experience what it is like to sleep with three girls. Astrid sleeps like a log....Sigrid and Ingrid roll around and kick and whimper all night.

It was good to see my sister.
