Ice Keem !

Man, is there anything better than homemade ice cream on a nice July day? If there is this little cutie wouldn't want any. This is Katie, she is a member of Rob's side of the "fam". We were at a family get together called the "First Annual Invitation Pro-Am croquet tournament". And of course eating was involved. Katie eats like a pro. Loves her veggies but when mom said she was getting some ice cream, she was very excited. It's been a long time since I had to decipher baby talk but when I got it she was saying "Ice Keem" over and over. When her mom brought out the ice cream she explained that they were going to share the cup, Katie shook her head in agreement but when the time came for mom's spoon to enter the cup - Big Problem. That's when Katie started using bigger spoon fulls. Then when she was done, she did this:
All I could say was "Enjoy doing that when you are little girl, because it's not appropriate later on!" If only we could all go back to that kind of innocence, huh?

Wedded bliss and crawdad huntin'

Well this is what wedded bliss looks like?!? This is my aunt and uncle in WV. They just celebrated 50 years together. People in the hills don't like much fuss over themselves. They will fuss over you but not comfortable with you fussin' over them. Can you tell my aunt is one of those people. They have 3 kids and they put together one really nice party for them. Lots of fried chicken, cake and gifts. I enjoyed seeing cousins I haven't seen in 10-15 years. My mom is youngest of 7 kids so my cousins already have grandbabies and I have a 14 and 11 year old. Yes I looked better/younger than the rest too! HAHA! I also loved the country air. I mean we were in hollers of WV. Ryan asked if we were on a one way street because the street didn't have any lines in the middle! His first taste of a holler I guess. They also enjoyed playing in the creek. That was what my sister and I enjoyed doing when we went to mamaws house. See below:
