August '15

I had to take a picture of Liz. I let her dress herself. Here she is wearing an old sweater that was made for me by my nanny, I believe, for when I was probably 2 or 3.

When we were driving down our road we saw 2 calves play fighting. It was pretty cute. At one point another calf came over to stop them and the brown cow nudged it away.

The beginning of our trip to MA. Fried Alligator from the Barn and Grill in Bourbon, MO. Yum! Oh and Steve's new obsession with Empires and Allies on his phone......blurgggg

Thank you hand sanitizer for being in my purse to clean my seat/tray on the plane. Smelled a little like vomit.

And look....no puke bag.

We were flying to MA/RI area to attend a memorial for my wonderful Aunt Maureen. She passed away April 19, exactly 9 years after my mom passed away. I can't help but think this is not a coincidence. I really don't believe in them. My Aunt Maureen was a mother hen. Her job was to worry for others, not to have anyone worry about her. She made many accomplishments in her life and touched many peoples hearts. She knew how to love and I loved her. She was part of many memories I had as a child, which is saying a lot because I have a VERY bad memory. I love you Aunt Maureen!

I'm very interested in my family history and got some pictures (of some pictures lol) of my Poppy Doyle.

Poppy and Kelly

This is Poppy's father and Kelly

After being able to spend time with my family we were able to meet up with Steve's son Dylan and his family. They met us at Providence Place Mall and we ate a yummy meal at the Cheesecake Factory. We just love the Baker family.

Poor Tristan was sad that Stevie couldn't come on the trip with us.

He's growing like a weed. He's as tall as Steve now!

When we were driving back to the hotel we saw fireworks. I tried to take a picture. Steve told me to take a video because it would work better. I guess he was right.

These pics are out of order, but worth posting.
