Happy Father's Day: June 21

Abby & Hope took Joe to a Twins game for Father's Day.

We made a "circle me Bert" sign.Hope even put on her rally cap...but no luck the Twins lost.

Two hits the whole game...ugh!

On a positive note...Abby had her very first Dome Dog!

Redneck First Aid: June 17

Abby fell off a chair in the living room and bonked her lip. She walked into the kitchemn, opened the fridge, and grabbed a cold beer can to hold on to the sore lip.

For real.

Joe & I just looked at each other accusatorily.

Mirror, Mirror On the Wall - June 7

We have found that Hope LOVES to look at herself in the mirror.

She smiles.

And laughs.

And talks.

And squeals with delight!

Scary the Clown - June 5

It was circus week at Abby's daycare...and one day she came home with her face painted like a clown.

It was actually a bit scary!! I think it was the eyebrows!
