Because I Haven't Blogged in a While

I haven't updated my blog and added new photos in a while so I thought I better get to it!

My roommate, Jean, decided that it was time she bought a big above ground pool for the back yard. Jean, Gus (Doodle) and Sophia (neighbor) have been having such a blast in the pool.

In the last few weeks, we have celebrated Daniel's (nephew) and Mary's (sister) Birthdays, Amy's (sister) visit, Brittany & Caleigh's (nieces from Las Vegas) visit and Dad's (favorite person) Birthday which was today, the Fourth of July.

Due to the pressures of my job, I wasn't able to celebrate my Dad's Birthday with him (and some family) up at Okoboji. I was quite sad about it and decided to spend some time with Daniel. Later in the evening, some friends stopped by which was nice.

Daniel is especially handsome when he smiles. I couldn't be at the lake, either, but I was there in spirit.

Any further news re Conn.?

Love you, M.

Having fun with Blogger, eh?
Thanks for the link!

Had a nice chat w/ my youngest niece last night. She makes me smile.

Love, M.
