Yesterday afternoon I got a wonderful call from miss Becca Tap who said that her husband was going on a fishing trip with most of her children and she didn’t want to sit home alone, so she decided to pack up Elena and head to Coralville to hang out with US! YAY!!! After they got here we sent Michael, Audrey, and Elena off to play some Pokemon. Chris still had a test to study for so Drew and Erin came over and played some cards with me and Becca. We taught Erin the Russian card game, Durock (still spelling that wrong I’m sure) and she picked it up probably a hundred times faster than our funny friend, Drew. Lucky for ME, I got to be Erin’s partner so we did fairly well together!
Then TODAY, Becca and I woke up early to get to the Salvation Army for QUARTER DAY!!! We both had fairly good success finding some good clothes for our kids and Michael and Audrey found some books in the quarter bin that they wanted, so everyone left happy. When we got home I suggested that we jet outside with the kids to play and of course, I took pictures…
Becca, Audrey, and Elena on the Pink Team against Michael in Badminton…
Michael defending himself against Badminton ATTACK…
Becca and Elena celebrating their successful volley…
Elena making funny faces for me…
Elena had a runny nose later, and Becca told her to get a kleenex and this is what Elena came back with…
Sadly, Becca and Elena have other weekend plans so they will be leaving us this afternoon, but we had a GREAT time while they were here!!!
Ok, firstly…it *is* Durock…and secondly, you have an amazing talent with that camera! That first picture of Elena is so perfect! I hope Becca frames that and hangs it up. It’s priceless! That’s at least worth 19.99.
It was a fun albeit short visit. Your spelling of “durock” does look weird to me, but then I realized that I spell it “dypak” which probably looks way weird to you. You’ll have to send me copies of all the pictures (so that I may frame some apparently LOL )
