Catch Up!

The Dude loves his Grandpa.  I loving watching how patient my

father is with him.  This snake was the topic of their 

conversation the other day.  The Dude kept telling Grandpa

that it was made of "mint" and Grandpa kept telling him it

was plastic.  Guess who won?

Sunday we took pictures after church and I got this great one of my sister 

Gretchen with her little boy Dylan.

And this one of MomE and my sister Erika.

I love it.

And of course with us sisters.

I really love them and am grateful 

we have

developed a sisterhood.

Check out the Dude?  He was a menace!

I love that Miss Boo was posing in all the pictures I took of them.

And the Dude...well, he was just laid back.

We tried to get cousin Dylan in the pictures, but he couldn't hold

still for anything and ended up in the light everytime.

This is the first trip that I have been able to spend so much time just visiting

with my family.  We have had fun laughing and sharing.

We are off to Mesa tomorrow to visit with friends.  Back on Thursday

evening and then off to Nyoka's again for a week.

Mr. Finn assures me he is doing fine and is surviving.  His 

daughter misses him terribly.  We will be glad to see him

when we return from our adventure.

Thanks for being such a trooper.
