We Found One!

Kim and I, as you know, are big J.R.R. Tolkien fans. So, when we saw this hobbit for sale recently, we couldn't resist. She looks a lot like Abby, too, so we don't even have to change any of the pictures!

Abby, Aunt Susie and Emily and Mark. 

The lone wanderer... with only a sweet poncho for protection... 

Hi, ducks.

Hi, Abby. 

On The National Mall

Kim and Abby spent the day with Aunt Susie and the Randolphs a few weeks ago. There were ducks, so Abby was happy.

Three generations of boat lovers.

Trip to St. Michael's Maritime Museum

This Saturday, we visited St. Michael's to see Grammy and Grandpop, Uncle Bob and Aunt Pat, and Mark and Emily Randolph. We also met Bob and Pat's grandson, John Cole. A good time was had by all, along with lots of oysters.

Jemimah, Abby and Daddy.

Hey, man. 

Spirit Week at GBCS

For homecoming week, we got to dress up in various costumes. Wednesday was 50's - 80's day. Guess what decade I represented?

Abby's Princess Party

Abby had several 3rd birthday parties, but the most populous one was last Friday (see above), when Jackie, Anna, Hannah, Hali, and Ama were here, all dressed as various princessi. Very cute stuff.

Abby is in love with all the Parker girls. Especially Patricia. :) 

Now I'm three years old. Big girl, and what not. I get a hat. 

Abby got several princess outfits, including Snow White. She likes them.
