So Much Fun!
Parades Eating

Arrests

Friendship

Seriously Silly times!Grace and Kelli have been so funny to listen to. Everything is serious and very dramatic. The terribly dangerous dogs, Queens and princesses, cutting and gluing to make quilts and skirts for barbies, and of course, running from bad guys - sometimes this happens to be Emma, Derek, Becca, Clara and David. They are so funny because it's all SUCH a drama. Kelli sings a little vibrato when it's really dramatic. John said she sang a terrific opera during sacrament meeting while sitting with him. It was about a barbie bracelet. It's a good exercise in silliness for Grace. She gets worn out from the strain of being so dramatic. Maybe she'll get it out of system so we will have a peaceful school year.... hmmmm.

What a Feeling!

We've been having a fabulous visit with Annie and her family! We had Sydney last week some too so we had 8 children 6 and under. It has been great fun.

One of my favorite moments was when Annie did everyone's hair and painted all the girls toe nails pink.

Another great moment was when we sent them to brush their teeth, all at the same time! So fun!
Just LOOK at Graces face. You must be able to imagine the excitement!

Sweating It!

The roof''s going on!

We had a pretty hot weekend. High nineties I think.

I guess the hottest weather is supposed to be the best for roofing, right? Nothing like sweating off all our 4th of July feasts! Worked out great!

Isn't this man cute?! I found him on the roof!

I tried to lure him down with food but he'd already eaten.

We've been a little worried because we wanted to have the play house at least sleep able for Scott and Annie's family. They are coming on Tuesday.

Do you think we are going to make it??? We're not too sure!


Our great friends, Terry and Shannon have again offered assistance by volunteering their apt. which is vacant right now. They are so sweet!

Reinforcements

Reinforcements have arrived! Roger this: We are UN-stalled on our project and making cautious progress!

Thanks Dave and co. and Terry and co. for you help and just helping us be more amused with the work! You are great friends and we really appreciate you!
