Teaparty with Scrabble

Duncan wanted no part of the tea party. Gates liked having the party with Scrabble and me...

This was where Scrabble was supposed to sit, and where Gates was pouring her tea... she was not the most cooperative guest...

Forest Park Mini Train

Brandon and I took a cue from some girls and went over to the FPMT last weekend. What a fun time we had! Bright sun.

No Free Rides....
... that means you, Bird!

So much to look at!

My, what a large tree.

Birthday Party

Gates is two! I can not even believe it. We had a fun birthday party on Saturday and she had such a fun time. All of her family came to celebrate and most of her little buddies were able to come too!
Here she is in her birthday get up playing ball. she loved opening presents, and is getting pretty good at it!
But, this was by far the best part. The yummy cake!!!



So on Friday afternoon, when I had lots to do inside my house, I locked myself in the backyard. At least I had the dogs out there with me (I guess) and some sodas... It was almost 3:00 when I discovered the sliding glass door locked behind me. Great. So, I mess around with some stuff and sit down. Here are a few things I learned...
1. I need to hide a key
2. I could write a children's book, and it would be about being nice to your dogs.
3. How to work the most complicated bubbles ever.
4. Coke has less caffine than Diet Coke... weird, huh?
5. my window screen is very difficult to get back on. as a matter of fact, it is still off.
6. I would never last on Survivor.
7. Duncan HATES the dog next door.

Well into hour 2, as I was lounging on our wooden loveseat, I heard a loud knock on the door. My BIL, Peyton was there. I ran around to the front yard and invited Brandon's parents and brother to the backyard for a diet coke.....
