Empty Driveway :(

Our driveway feels empty after having Matt and Brooke here for a few wonderful, fun-filled days. Here's some shots from yesterday: http://www.flickr.com/photos/lifeinvector/3821540631/
Claire keeps saying, "Matt Brooke Camper Gone." "I miss Matt Brooke." "I miss Matt too." "I miss friends." She gets it already.

Funny from last night: we were eating hambugers fresh off the grill. I gave Claire several little hunks of meat. She wanted more. I asked her if she wanted more hamburger. She said, "NO! MORE MEAT!" Lol. It was the only meat we were eating. She'll get that soon enough!

Exercise won't make you Thin

Hanging with Matt and Brooke

Our friends Matt and Brooke recently rolled into town. I enjoyed making some dinner for them, followed by some Popsicles on the patio afterwards. Check out Brooke's pictures from Wednesday here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/lifeinvector/3816039887/ and Thursday here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/lifeinvector/3818977523/ We went black-light mini-golfing which I have been dying to take Claire to do all summer! We had a blast! Today I took Brooke (and Claire of course!) to the Broad Ripple LLL group. It was huge. About 20 moms! The leader said if one more person came in, they would split to 2 groups, but nobody else came in. It was, as always great conversation and a learning opportunity. For dinner we grilled out on the patio and used some yummy tomatoes from my plants.

Why do men have nipples?

Have you ever wondered why men have nipples? Wonder no longer! http://www.guardian.co.uk/society/2005/jun/15/childrensservices.familyandrelationships They are there for a reason. Isn't God amazing!
