Playing in the Backyard

Kendra from across the street came over today for a few hours - joined us for dinner, wii and racing and playing in the backyard with Emily & Will. They had a good time. She's 10 or 11 (I forget). Anyway, it was fun watching them play.

Yesterday Tom set up the volleyball / badminton set - - wish I could play!! I love to play badminton !

Playing Soccer on the Fourth of July

After dinner we all played soccer in the backyard. It was Emily and me against Tom and Will - we were winning, too! Unfortunately, as I was kicking the ball with one leg, my other foot tripped on a hole in the ground and I twisted my right ankle pretty bad. We went to the urgent care today and had xrays - nothing broken...just a bad sprain. I am wearing a brace on my foot and using crutches. They told me to keep off my feet and not put any weight on it - not to worry there, because right now it's too painful to try that.

Emily has taken to calling me 'Hoppy!' Funny girl!!! Anyway, the upside is that I was able to get some shots of them playing together. Today we were all pretty low energy - Emily isn't feeling too well today - so we all just took it easy - which was nice, too.

For Kelly!!!!

From Will: "I hope you like the Stinky Feet Pictures!"
We wanted to surround you with love!

Out for a Walk After Dinner

Will has been waiting for Emily to get here since they said goodbye over a year ago in Washington. He has been so excited to have his favorite person come out to be with him!
He said she still looks 'new' to him!!! I love that! She just looks so grown up and different - hence 'NEW;!!!

She Is Here!!

What?!! Emily's Here?!!!!
