Heidi's Shower

There was a shower for Heidi in her home town. Kate H. helped plan it. Me and the girls drove up Monday and came back Tuesday. Molly left with Sara to go to Minnesota and Gretchen went with Emily for a week. That leaves only Kaitlin, Danny and Jeanie here during the day.

Heidi and Jeff's families at the shower.
All of my daughters except one. Jennifer you were with us in thought!

Grandkids Come To Visit

Auntie Jeanie gets two down. She loves to read to the kids. I think Lori lasted about 5 minutes and Paul maybe 8. They play so hard outside and swimming all day, it doesn't take them long to fall asleep once they relax with a story.We've been having such a fun week with Sara and her kids. Sara and I were commenting last night that we were quite amazed that Jeanie hasn't gotten bored with the kids and keeps busy playing with them, all day long! These kids are lucky they have an aunt and uncle that will play with them, non-stop! (I just noticed that we don't have Danny in any of the pictures. I'm not sure how that happened as he usually tries to sneak in all of them!!)

Molly Gets Confirmed

One Tree Down

Dad took out the chainsaw the other day. That tree was looking so straggly so he took it down to make more room for the other two little ones. He plans on taking down a few more by the back lot line between us and Randy's that have died.

Take Me Out To The Ball Game...........

We took Danny and Jeanie to the Tiger's game yesterday. It was HOT but fun! The kids were so excited! Danny kept exclaiming from the back seat, "I'm so EXCITED!" During the game, they both kept saying, "This is so fun!" Jeanie said it was much funner than watching the game on Dad's computer! They loved the cheering and yelling and joined in whenever they flashed the "Make Noise" sign. The "wave" went around a few times and they really got into that! It was also the big fireworks night. We left before the ninth inning started to beat the crowd as the fireworks were already half way done. We enjoyed them on the walk (jog) to the car and out the back window as we were heading to the freeway. On the way home Danny said it did get a bit annoying. When I asked him, what did. He said, "Those guys yelling, Get your ice cold water! Get your hot dogs! Get your ice cold "beard"! They started to give me a headache!"

Beautiful Sunday

Enjoying a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Dad and I even hung around the pool and swam for a couple hours this afternoon.
