4th of July!




Growing up, Janet's family always went to Fairmont, West Virginia and sang Take Me Home Country Roads crossing over to W.Va. Mark, Janet and Quinten went this year but it was so different. Grandma's annual picnic was cancelled since she is in the hospital. She looked very good for 94 years but time is taking it's toll. It meant a great deal to go and visit with her even for a short period. Not many people over 40 can say they still have a living grandparent. All you can see is the top of Quinten's head. He was not thrilled to get a picture.


This was the 1st time Quinten was not a great traveler. As he approaches 3, I think I see testing three's looming! He has been so easy, fun, silly that the testing phase has thrown us for a loop especially Mark! Combined with a 13 year old at home, who is also usually great but learning to test her own waters, is challenging. Mark let Quinten watch Curious George DVD. Quinten usually has a 10 minute video span to which I am personally glad! He watched him most of the trip; incidentally, he acted up when we were not in the car. Coincidence? He was not allowed to watch videos on the way home after he hit me and dropped my camera. He was he usual self on the way home so I say no more car videos!
