Concert

Steve's cousins Ron and Laura and their daughter Joy came to visit a few weeks ago.  Abbie and Joy loved dressing up like princesses and putting on a show for us.  Joy would play the guitar and Abbie would sing.  The were so cute and we all enjoyed all of the concerts!!



Father's Day (2 months late)

We celebrated Father's Day 2 months late this year.  Which is pretty typical of our family.  Too much going on to actually celebrate the special day on the special day!!  Father's Day was June 20 with was also - Abbie's birthday, first day of VBS (I was the director), and our good bye reception at Avenue.  We actually told Abbie it was her birthday on June 19 because we could not celebrate it on the 20th either.  So after 2 months of patient waiting, we finally celebrated Father's day!  The fun part was Steve did not know we were celebrating that day so he was quite suprised when he got home from work.  I cut most of the lawn for him and we cooked dinner for him.  Then we gave him his present - a fire ring.  We have enjoyed a few family fires since then.  Abbie loves them and asks when the next family fire will be.  She loves eating the graham crackers, marshmellows, and chocolate but likes them each by themselves.  She does not like a smore.  The best part of the fire ring is just hanging out in the backyard talking and watching the stars!  Hopefully we get in a few more fires before Winter hits.
