Guymons
We've spent our visit with the Guymons at the waterpark and playing games. We wish they would stay until the wedding.

Maddie's 1st
Maddie turned one today. My sweet angel baby let me take pictures of her in her birthday suit. We spent the day playing nicely together; Nick sang her "Happy Birthday" at least a dozen times. Maddie loved her #1 cake.
We love our baby.
We love our baby.

Oh, What Do YOU Do in the Summertime?
We play all sorts of games. I will attempt to explain the objects of our games.
1. Maisie's "CRAZY MAISIE" Game: Make crazy faces and ask to be photographed.
2. Andy's "SEA BREEZE" Game: Blow hot breathy air into your victim's face and rhetorically ask, "Doesn't this feel like fresh air?"
3. Maddie's "DUMP YOUR LOAD" Game: Part one, unload everything dirty from the dishwasher and dump it on the floor. Part two, well you can read what you want into the title.
4. Nick's "SUPER SMASH" Game: Run as fast as you can and jump on an unsuspecting person's back.
5. Meg's "DRUM BUSTER" Game: Sing every song from the "Wizard of Oz" and hold the last night as long and as loud as you can.
6. Perhaps the best game this week was Andy's "I SPY" Game: Empty dirty dishes from the dishwasher, then, try to remember which ones are dirty and reload the dishwasher again.
7. The "COUNTING CREWS" Game: Count the number of children a woman takes to Walmart, then ask if all four are hers. When she replies that yes all five belong to her, simply give her a compliment: "Well, what a nice, clean, handsome family you have."

Sleep Deprivation
Austin has been in Seattle the past few nights, so the children have been in bed with me. No wonder I haven't been sleeping well -- there was no room in my bed.
I should have joined Meg....

Best Friends
Maisie asked Andy, "Who are your best friends?" Andy replied, "Mickey, Matthew and Ronnie."
We can't wait to be with cousins in July.

Water Park
We've spent three days this week at the water park. Of course the children love it; today Maddie fell asleep in my arms while in the water. Tomorrow Austin gets to come with us.
