Hi Sis,
Fran (our neighbor) and I, enjoy going on walks together around the neighborhood, and have talked about going to local parks. This time we did it. We drove to one of the covered bridge parks and went for a walk to the river. Evelyn, loved it!
The delicious red raspberries Fran brought her made the walk even sweeter.
Evelyn and Fran
Evelyn had fun playing in the river.

Dear Sis,
Daddy and William have been digging out the space under the play set for a few days. Today they went to the hardware store after lunch. William napped when they got home, giving Daddy time to line the box and fill it with sand. He spent the rest of the afternoon like this:

Hi Sis,
This past week has been difficult for many of us. Nate’s grandfather (Evelyn’s Great Grandpa Quick) passed away on Monday, one week before his 80th birthday. He was a kindhearted person, that you couldn’t help but to love and feel comfortable with right away! He sure had a knack with the kids, Evelyn always seemed to be smiling at her Great-Grandpa when they were together. We sure are going to miss him!
Love,
Jamiegoof
Dear Sis,
We joined the Trenton Historical Society last summer. Tonight we went to a potluck dinner. Most members are retirees, so its like a room full of friendly grandparents. William loved all the attention! They were even sweet enough to have a dish of beef along side the pulled-pork entree.
We Brought:
Egg Salad Tea Sandwiches
Pineapple Mandarine Sunshine Cake

P.S. We are waiting on a recipe from for a delicious sheet cake from one of the ladies. We’ll share it upon arrival:)
Dear Sis,
At the grocery store today William pointed out the fruit-by-the-foot. I asked if he wanted to get some for Daddy for Father’s Day. He thought that was good. When I asked how many, he gave the answer he always gives… five:)
After dinner, we made a card to go with our silly gift. I chose the sentiment, but William chose the font and colors of each line.
To my surprise, William pick brown card stock. I expected him to grab a super bright color:) We cut and pasted our sentiment inside the card. Then, I asked how he wanted to decorate his card. His response? Sprinkles!
I wrote with the glue. He sprinkled… and ate… sprinkles!
Love,

Dear Sis,
Today we had leftovers for lunch when we got back from family story/craft time at the library. William had the rest of the creamy cauliflower soup we made yesterday when Mama Jen, Carter, and Brother Zach came to play.
William loves cauliflower! This is a great way to turn it into a meal:)
Love,

Dear Sis,
We finally rounded up a present for Evelyn’s party in a few weeks! Since it’s only her first and she won’t really get the present process, I decided to get her lots of practical things.
William saw me taking pictures and decided he needed his picture taken too. He is very excited about his first tattoo. We got it at the library yesterday from at the space program.
Can’t wait to visit you guys for Evelyn’s Birthday!
Love,

Dear Sis,
Today we went to the library for a special kids program. The Planetarium had an inflatable dome to project a movie about space for kids. William got a kick out of it. Afterward, he said he didn’t want to go home. We’d already had lunch so we went to get ice cream before coming home for nap time.
William had his favorite. Vanilla ice cream, with chocolate cookie crumbs, chocolate sauce, and candy worms. I had the strawberry shortcake sundae:)
Just another fun day compliments of the library:)
Love,
b
