Look what is new in our yard...

Eddie, Papa Ed, built this bird house for Aubrey this Spring. We really haven't had time to put it up yet. This was one of the things Steven accomplished while being home with Jamie. Needless to say we have new friend. This was quick... it took only a couple days! Hopefully he will stay with us until Aubrey comes home. She will get a kick out of this.

Another thing that Steven has accomplished was getting the piggy banks rolled. Aubrey has collected a lot of change. She accrued most from PAPA. He keeps change jars for her. Every visit she collects! Papa's last visit he had a zip-lock bag full coins that he had to tote through the airport and on the plane. They weighted to much to check-in with the luggage, so he had to carry them through the airport. Aubrey had the 1st hard lesson of being a "BIG STISTER" as she says, she had to share these coins with Jamie. Hummm...something has come between her and money! Anyway, she shared. Steven wanted to go ahead and roll it and get it in their accounts, especially since she is away and won't throw a fit. Jamie ended up $50 and Aubrey has about $140. Not bad! Especially for coins!

Aubrey has been spending these past few days with my Dad and Sister. Aubrey has being riding horses at Dad's. I spoke with them yesterday and she had been thrown off. She was trying to keep her flip-flop from falling, and she ended up kicking the horse. The horse took off and Aub was left on her stomach. Dad said she looked like she wanted to cry, but he asked her if she wanted to ride the horse and she said yes, and she jumped back on. You go girl. When I called she, Dad, and Nikki were in his bed trying to take a nap. " The secret was let out...they were watching Sponge Bob!"
We don't let her watch this creature because he is just nasty. However, Papa's house all the rules fly out the door. She was real coy about telling me what she was doing.


Today she will make her trip to Nashville. Mom and Harry are taking her to the Olive Garden near at the Galleria in Birmingham at 2:00 to meet Robin and Bernie. They have some plans to take her to the park tonight, where some bands play in the evenings during the summer. She will have lots of fun.

Daddy, Harry, Bernie, and Eddie we all want to wish you all the best Father's Day ever! We love you all. Thank you so much for everything.
