Just Plugging Along

One day to the next. There isn't too much going on around here these days, just us hanging out. It seems Victoria has even less of a tolerance for warm weather than her daddy. Should make for an interesting summer. Already, she's spending warm days in nothing but a diaper!

We've been doing quite a bit of driving up and down state this past week, and will be doing more this weekend. Last weekend, Victoria and I went to Lexington Fri-Sun. The two of us and my mom bummed around Lex. Friday, playing tourist. Busha bought V this fun new elephant - she absolutely loves it!! He's got long legs and nobby knees (kinda like her uncle Jeff!!!)

When we got back from Lex, we picked up Rod and headed up to Mio. It was Victoria's first trip up there (long overdue) to see Grandma Penny and Grandpa Jim. She also got to see Faith for a little while, and Aunt Pam and Uncle Steven very briefly.

On a side note, if you're ever looking for a bridal shop, I would strongly discourage anyone from going through Victoria's Bridal in Dearborn (unfortunately they do share V's name). We've been battling back and forth on size issues for my bridesmaid dress for Natalie's wedding (which is this weekend!) and they're just not very nice to deal with. I know I've lost some weight, but have never been a size 4 in my life, and the fact that the dress doesn't fit proves it! No matter what, these hips can only shrink so far...

Things we're excited for this summer:
Later this month we get to go fishing in Canada!!!
Next month we get to head to Mackinaw for the family reunion.
August 5th we're having a party, and will be busy showing off the Camaro in the weekend-long Be-Cool classic car show.
ETA: How could I forget Aunt Mandy coming to visit in August?!?

Looks like you guys have a busy summer planned. Should be lots of fun. Thought you had a friend coming to town that you were excited about as well?? ;)

So not yet world traveler, but in 6 months Miss V has managed to cover lots of this state and several more with the trip to WV. Glad she likes the elephant! Looking forward to all of you visiting with Nat's wedding this weekend.Love and hugs, Mom
