Hello everyone!

We arrived safely in Charleston West Virginia Friday to meet Evette, Lil Evette and Cynthia. We met halfway (between Ohio and North Carolina) to bring Cynthia home with us for a month, or so, this summer. Kristian stayed with Granny and Gramps ("thanks so much") while mom took the more economic car. As usual Evette brought everything except the kitchen sink. Just try to make it through the maze! =) Poor kids didn't even have floor space for their feet. Don't ya feel sorry for them...LOL Also, you'll notice our two queen bed room became a one king bed with a roll away brought in. The special Olympics were in town and the hotel was booked with no more two bed rooms available. UGH! Four of us what to do....we opted to have three of us in the king bed and Lil' Evette on the roll away. I slept little to none with both girls grinding their teeth and Cynthia trying to kick me out of bed. By about 6:22 AM I surrendered and got out of bed to start my day. It wasn't long until the other three joined me and we went to eat breakfast @ Shoney's. We enjoyed some river pics before eating and the girls were urged to climb out on the rocks for a photo op. Lil' Evette declined but Cynthia smiled for the camera. We arrived back in Ohio several hundred miles later and began getting things in their place. We pray Cynthia has a wonderful summer with us. Kristian is on cloud nine! =) Stay Cool!
