Uncle Eric is stashed in Norfolk for the month of July - we are LOVING having him around. Ellie Bean, his God Daughter, especially lights up around him.
Good to have someone wrestle with the girls again and get their craziness out!
Ava decided to "clean" her kitchen since Mommy was cleaning hers. She will do anything to get a Clorox wipe. I hope this lasts!
I know when the guys are on deployment everything breaks. I did preventative work this week and got all new tires, oil change, alignment, etc knowing that we will be driving lots for the month of July. Wouldn't you know I ran over something on the highway and popped one of my 5 day old tires? Thankfully, USAA roadside service came to the rescue and I was able to park at the back of a church right off the interstate. Other good news was that I got roadside hazard warranty on the tires so I got a new tire for free from Sears.
We were a sight to see with the baby crying, Ava trying to help the gentleman change the tire, and Penny freaking out.
We are learning to roll with the punches!
We went to visit with Poppy and had a great time.
Not a fan of asparagus
PLEASE can we have a piano player in our family!?

The girls had so much fun with Cousin Eric. He is quite the entertainer.

She was thrilled to feed the fish
We went to a Goodbye Party for the Deans who were moving to Hawaii. I was chasing the bambinos around so I didn't get many pictures
fun crafting
We will miss you Cailin!
Our local artist. She was specific in saying that THIS painting is for Daddy.

Playing card with Pop Pops
You can't bring tools out without Ava jumping in to help. She is helping Pop Pops lower the crib here.
Ellie was fascinated with Uncle Eric and was literally watching his every move.

So sweet
Sweet little foot prints
Nanny and Pop Pops got a fun kiddy pool that the girls could not get enough of. It also gave me a great opportunity to learn how to use the camera and play wit the different settings. Ultimately, Cousin Eric gave me some valuable advice so the next blog posting should have better quality pictures.
