Odds and Ends

Doug's aunt Cindy and her partner Mary were here for a brief visit and we got to see them Friday night and Saturday morning. I forgot my camera Friday night, so these pics are from Sat:

The grown-ups in the top part of the swing set while the kids are in the sand underneath. This is also a good illustration as to why we require Gracie to wear shorts under dresses.


Cindy holding Danielle.

I take a lot of pictures of Danielle. But the big kids always want to be in the pics too. Here are a few faves of mine.

Gracie kissing Danielle... priceless for the expression on Danielle's face.


Gracie is such a ham. But this would be a really good picture if her hair wasn't going everywhere.


Bradley kissing Danielle. Not the best pic, but I couldn't leave him out.


Last night while I was fixing dinner, Danielle got fussy. Since she was in the living room with Doug and the other kids, I knew he would handle it. This is what I found when I came in to check on them:


Here's a close up shot. He was playing Mario while bouncing Danielle on his lap. He said it made it more challenging.


And on that note, I should also mention that Doug and Gracie saved the Princess last night. And all I can say is THANK GOD. Because now my whole family can stop obsessing about a video game. ;)

We rescued the princess too, but the allure of uncovering the hidden world keeps us going. It's agreat game.
