MEI MEI

This is Mei, she was our foreign exchange student from Japan. She stayed with us for 3 weeks this summer, and we had a blast! She is so much fun, and willing to try anything. Our whole family grew to love her so much! We miss her now that she is gone.

We went with another family in our neighborhood to go craw dad fishing in the river. Everyone had a great time.

Mei, Satomi, and Nozomi, fixed our families a traditional Japanese dinner, complete with sushi.

Our family with Mei on our last night together at Pirate Island Pizza. We now consider Mei part of our family!

Ice cream!!!!!!!

After family night we all enjoyed an ice cream treat!

Olivia with her Ice cream!

Aubri with her ice cream!

This is a true story..........James lost a tooth eating ice cream.....I think that is worse than losing a tooth eating a banana.

Bad Dad gave Navy her first taste of Ice Cream, I think that she loved it!

My favorite pictures of Navy!

Thanks to my sister in law Skye, who took these awesome pictures of Navy when she was 9 months old. How lucky am I to have a professional photographer in the family!!!! Navy and Saylor in June.

Navy's new trick is standing on her head, here is the progression......start out on your bum...

Then place your head on the ground and stick your bum in the air...

Then go up on your tip toes and raise your hands in the air...Tricky!!!

Lookin' cute in a coca cabana dress that I made for Navy.

Happy as a clam...

Oh how quick things change!!!!!
