Today we had a “lunch date” with some friends who will be
watching the girls for a few days next week. After, Mom and Dad stopped by on
their way home from a visit to Rockford. The girls were so happy to see them.
It was a great pick-me-up for the start of the week!

Sometimes, a snuggle with Daddy and a flower headband are
all she needs to get through the afternoon…
Tuesday, June 5
We went on our first black (rasp)berry picking extravaganza
after the girls went to bed and came away with 12 cups…enough for a pie and a
sorbet we’re going to try for our anniversary next week. Well worth the venture
into prickers and thorns!

Usually, there is no way in h-e-double-hockey-sticks I would
ever, ever post a picture of my feet. (No need to traumatize you, my dear
readers, with images of my freakishly long toes, for starters.) That being
said, I couldn’t pass it up when I tried out my new nailpolish: Minted. Isn’t
it fantastic?

Took the girls to the park. Armed with a mason jar, Elaina
and Josh collected rocks and seashells, while Ellie and I enjoyed the beautiful
scenery.
Friday, June 8
Tonight we took the girls to the town fair. Elaina and Arcadia had such fun riding the
rides together, and Ellie plotted her adventures for next year.

Saturday, June 9
A busy Saturday. We went to watch Rylan’s tball game in the
morning, came home for lunch, and then headed out for the parade in town. Mom
and Dad spent some time with us afterwards, and it wasn’t long afterward we
discovered Elaina had a fever. She and Ellie were both in bed an hour early…a
sign of things to come…but thankfully the day itself had been a success.
