Adriana and Mandy!!!

Our friends, Adriana and Mandy are at school in Spain right now. They are missing certain things about American life, so we grabbed the little photo cutout that Mandy's mom gave us and took them on an adventure.

After church, we went to lunch. Tobias tried to share his fish taco with the girls. They declined, smiling broadly.



The girls were frightened by the sight of the massive burrito I purchased at Chipotle. Delaney tried to comfort them.



Having finished our lunch, we ventured over to the local family rip-off, uh...I mean family "fun" place and had ourselves a good time.

Unfortunately, A&M didn't meet the height requirement to ride any of the rides.


We settled on miniature golf. The girls were just happy to be there (even if "there" meant being posted on Jeff's rear end.)


Hey wait...I thought they were in Spain...so how is it that we got a glimpse of them in Holland in this shot?


And here they are in a place that looks suspiciously like Kentucky...



The girls weren't even embarrassed to join me in a goofy little victory dance to celebrate a hole in one! (Well, maybe they were embarrassed, but they didn't complain or run away.)



Uh, girls...I know that looks like a festive place to hang out, but you might want to move.


In More News As We Are Wending Our Way...

Jeff delighted me with a sweet pucker up when he came home after his lip and gum numbing dental appointment. (Yes, I did kiss him once I stopped laughing.)


Here's a close-up:



Delaney has now joined the contact lens wearing members of society. Although she had a rough start (touching one's eyeballs is not natural), she is now excelling in the application and removal of her new vision aids.


I successfully removed and refitted a tire that had picked up a nail somewhere, all under the watchful eye and helpful guidance of my husband. It was the first time I had ever undertaken this "manly" task and I was pleased that the car drove normally afterward. (Regardless of how the picture looks, my knees are not suffering from Elephantitis.)




And as for Tobias...well, he's just creeping around...
