  1. Wow I *almost* felt like I was on vacation with you. Great job with the pictures! But two things need more explanation...why was the water like ice tea? Ew! And what is up with that cake? There's got to be a story.

    About Micah's odd faces...I think it's the age. It's like kids go through an awkward time with they are toddlers and teenagers. Mostly, though, she look beautiful.

  2. Water--the storms...
    Cake
    Marlene, "just put Happy birthday on it"
    clerk "is that all you want on it"
    Marlene "That's it, Happy Birthday"
    and from there you get that cake ..hilarious! It was a tasty treat though!!
