This summer seems to be the summer of family fun.  First, my sister LeAnn came to visit from Texas.  Now, my older sister Becky and her family are visiting from Tennessee.  And, in a couple of weeks, my niece Kati will be here from California! It’s been a lot of fun seeing everyone.

Yesterday, we had a get-together at my parents’ house.  We had yummy food, enjoyed each other’s company, and played croquet.  I came in fourth and mom won yet again! (It seems like my mom always wins any game we play with her.)

While everyone was together, I showed my sisters my blog because they hadn’t really looked at it before.  Cindy asked why there was writing on my blog. I was kind of speechless.  I said, “Um … because it’s a blog.  That’s what you do.  You blog.”

My brother-in-law Brett thought it was weird that I blogged about the things I blogged about, like my new do for instance.  I told him people blog about all kinds of things because they’re basically electronic journals. Some of my family is kind of electronically/technologically challenged.

I tried to get a picture of me with my great-niece Kilee, but she was kind of grumpy.  I had to sneak around to get pictures of her and they didn’t turn out so well.  Finally, she let me take a picture of her on her own, but she wasn’t too excited about it. My older sister Shari also hates to have her picture taken, but I got one anyway.
