Learning to Bowl

While Marmee tried really hard to teach Angel the proper way to bowl, she would rather make sure all the pins got knocked down by doing it herself!

Fun times at Marmee and Poppy's house...driving the new car, filling it with gas and getting "real money" to pay for it!! Wish a couple dimes and quarters would pay for it!

Even though Angel was 8 months old and winter when she wore this, the cold weather allowed this tall 6 month old a chance to wear the snow dress too!!

Updates

Hard to believe it is June and we are still using the heat and wearing sweatshirts!! We have had a cold spell here this week and ready for some warmer weather, although the 100 degree heat our family is having back on the East Coast does not sound like fun.
Jason is eagerly waiting to start his new job with Boeing, probably won't happen until July as they need to do the paperwork and physicals and such. Still need to figure out how his commute and all will go, but we are excited about this change for us.
PopPop is doing alright back in his residence, although he has fallen once but did not injure anything. He still has to wear the brace on him arm and we try to get him to use the walker. Pepe is slowly recovering...has had some flare ups but hoping that with time things will smooth themselves out and he can get his energy level back up to normal. Me and the girls travel back to NYC with Caitlin to help my sister Megs set up her new apartment and have some fun bonding times!! (Am I crazy to make that trip again so soon?...hopefully we won't melt in the heat!) We had a nice weekend...on Saturday we celebrated with friends at their 35th wedding anniversary party...congrats Mahlers! It was great to catch up with people, see all the friends from out of town (including the O'Kray family which came over and visited this morning...good to see you guys, and Mary, send the pics you took!) and witness such a beautiful marriage and life the Mahler's have created and been blessed with. We got a lot of gardening done yesterday (and by request of my hubby, I may start a weekly post of Watching the Garden Grow...) and enjoyed Sunday fun and dinner at my parents. Hope life and the summer is treating everyone well!!

Rotten Robin

Well, for those that remember THIS exciting post, this empty nest is all we have to show for it. Apparently, some mean robins decided to pick on a little mother sparrow and then get her nest out of the hanging basket and take away the eggs. We are so sad as we were looking forward to watching the baby sparrows enter the world. Mother Nature can be so mean!!
