Char: Can these apple cores go in the portal?
Me: Yes, but in this dimension, we call it a garbage disposal.
Charlie comes running into the kitchen with a new tub of neapolitan ice cream. "Yes!! It's Napoleon!"

Char: we shouldn't play on train tracks.
Me: never! We want you kids to grow up safely to do lots of cool things for God.

Charlie: I'll be ten this year. Two digits. I'm really tired of being one digit.
Oh, the drudgery of childhood...

Black Widow
 |
| So...we found this little fella crawling in the grass near our shed. Yep, it has the markings of a black widow spider. He met Jesus shortly after...unless he bit someone, then he went somewhere a little warmer! |
Michigan summer, 2021
 |
| Up to Michigan we drove for a long weekend. Papa bought some of Jenna's cards to help support her fundraiser for St. Jude. |
 |
| Beautiful weather to spend time on Grandma and Papa's deck. |
 |
| Ice cream with the family! |
Camp for Charlie
 |
| Charlie and Greg headed back to Little Galilee camp for 2021. |
 |
| They had changed so much from 2019! |
 |
| Charlie was ready to come home. Poor guy ended up not feeling great after a rainy, dark, damp week. |
Hair donation!
 |
| Jenna decided to get her hair cut. It was getting too heavy and giving her headaches. She was able to donate ten inches for Children With Hair Loss in Michigan! |
Jenna's fundraiser
 |
| Jenna sold cards and blankets, which she had made, to raise funds for St. Jude Runs! She was able to donate over $80.! |
Father's Day 2021
Father's Day Weekend included food downtown Chillicothe, beginning with cheesecake!
 |
| Jacob and Jenna helped prep dinner for grilling. Jamie grilled stuffed burgers with his new grilling tools. |
 |
| The weather was perfect for swimming, too! |
 |
| Another Father's Day gift...detailing the BMW. |
 |
| Greg came swimming with us. |

Jenna-isms
From July 4, 2018
I took Jenna shopping with me to a cute little boutique. First, I tried on a sundress.
Jenna: Oh, no.
Me: Why not?
Jenna: It's too short. (it actually touched the top of my knees)
Me: I can wear shorts under it.
Jenna: I don't think so.
Me: How about this shirt?
Jenna: No!
Me: Why not?
Jenna: It shows part of your back.
Me: How about if I wear a black garbage bag?

St. Jude Progressive
St. Jude Progressive Dinner, 2021.
Rachael & Carl, Darrel and Carrie, Angie & Jamie, Sara and Randy.
 |
| Our group started with dessert first! |
 |
| The host family shared science experiments with us. |
 |
| This cool, frozen dessert was perfect for the hot, humid evening! |
 |
| Peyton Drake served coffee drinks. |
 |
| Sara won the drawing, but turned the "prize" over to Jamie. The prize was to use a flame-thrower to torch a pile of boxes with "cancer" written on them. |
 |
| Our second course was appetizers at Doug and Jenn Nelson's home. Chelsea Duke shared her experience as a nurse for St. Jude. |
 |
| Our third course was at Tyson and Jessica Richard's home. They served the main course of bbq meat, and cheesy potatoes. |
 |
| For entertainment, Cowboy Randy, Reed, and Will Richards played patriotic songs on their harmonicas. |
