The Cleaning Princess

Abby loves to help. She really does a great job, seriously. She cleans the toilet as well as I can. She loves to help with the dusting and everything. I greatly encourage this, because I am looking forward to the day when she can really help. Yes, sometimes, she can be more of a hinderence than a help but the day is coming when that will be flipped. Oh, do you like the attention to detail on her part, all the way down to the pretty princess shoes? Isn't she just too cute? We love her so much. She is such a lot of fun! (That was bad English, I know, but it was how I was feeling!)

Sleeping . . . Babies, it doesn't get much better than that!

Uncle Daniel

Such a dashing young catch, for any single girl out there looking for a man who is wanting to serve the Lord with his life! If you want, I can give you his e-mail! Or give him your number! :o) Seriously, We were very priveleged to have Daniel stay with us this week! We had a wonderful time of fellowship and fun! We love you "Uncle Dannell". Abby walks to your room every morning, knocks on the door and asks where you are! We miss you and can't wait to see you again!

Abby in the Wedding

Danielle and Alan's wedding was absolutely beautiful! Nicolas was very handsome in his little tux. Abby and Dina were downright cute and the Bride was the most beautiful bride I've ever seen. We were so pleased to get to be part of the Mundy's big day! Thanks! We wish them the best of everything as they continue their life together! You guys are great!

P.S. Dawn, is there any way to get some pictures from the photographer? I would love some of Danielle, the flower girls and Nicolas, plus they were taking some great shots of Abby and her daddy at the wedding blowing bubbles. I would love some of those!

My Goodness How Time Flies . . .

It seems like the summer is going to be over before it starts!!! We have had a few exciting and very busy weeks. Abby was in a wedding in June, it was wonderful, the worst thing she did was try to bite the ring bearer before the wedding started, thankfully in the privacy of the nursery so the poor bride didn't have to see it and add to her stress. The ring bearer then turned to her and told her that that's not how we used our mouths and proceded to tell her, here I'll show you and kiss her. I don't have pictures of that up yet, but hopefully I will. I'm just now getting the promised zoo pictures up. We have a zoo pass for two years that someone in the church gave us! What a special blessing! Abby loves going to see the animals and every day when her daddy goes to church to work she says, Going to see the animals? He replies, yes. By the way, I've been informed that some people very dear to our hearts read our blog regularly, (Hi Pastor and Mrs. Sumner!) and that because these prestigous peoples read it, I need to work on my English! I hope it doesn't bother ya'll too much! I'm workin' on it . . . Really, I am! These pictures you see of the monkey, are kinda funny. Abby loves loves loves Curios George! She couldn't wait to go to the zoo to see the monkeys and she thought, feed the monkeys! We saved them for last! When we finally saw them she was elated, until this one, right by her head pointed his great big black finger at her, she lost it, screaming, terrified, not liking the monkeys after that! She's since gotten over it, still likes George, but is a little nervous when she's near the monkeys! Well, that's about all for now. The Murrays from Tennessee are here and I need to go be socialable. I hope you enjoy the long overdue pictures. Hopefully in the next few days I can steal away and post some more!

Even Andrew enjoyed the zoo!

Here she thought, "this is neat!" It was still okay at thsi point as well!

She was a little amazed at seeing the monkey this close!

After the monkey pointed at her, she was done. She was screaming, terrified, very frightened and as good parents we held her while we laughed!

This is a very good zoo. Their aquarium is amazing. All the exhibits are really good. Abby loved each thing! She is always looking forward to going to the zoo!
