Oh Pandy! I love this post. I especially agree with #8, #10, #16 and #23. I would love to come meet your family in Old Town for lunch on a Saturday. That sounds delightful. And I would kill to see Bailey slap her butt and say what? what? Ryan is now saying bye-bye and we're all thrilled...maybe he's not retarded.
ReplyDeleteThat picture of Bailey sticking her butt out is to die for...Love it.
ReplyDeleteI never get jack done in the summer as well...all those BIG plans I make in May never seem to compare to swimming and sleeping in.
I'm so glad you're back! I love Bailey's butt slap picture--that is way too hilarious! Having just done two days at the beach, I have to agree with number three. And I totally took the summer off from exercising and cleaning! I don't have that kind of time.
