Tie-dyed, tongue tied...
Haven't got much to say- still trying to recover from my vacation- but thought you'd like to see the fruits of their labors. The kids tie-dyed these shirts. Yes, their bottom halves are filthy, but they had been climbing mountains- in the rain. And I am sure the older boys were wrestling- I have long ago quit trying to figure out why they do that. And I notice that my stair-step children are beginning to shuffle up the mix! Yes, they are in the proper order, age-wise, but a couple of the younger ones seem to be out growing their older siblings... hmmm... isn't that what we warned them about when the older ones would pick on the younger ones, "Some day they are going to be bigger than you..." ???? Not that any of my darling angels would ever pick on some one smaller than they are!

Cute picture! Trying to get my act together for our trip to the beach. Mostly just trying to get the kitchen clean. The dishwasherr has been dead for a couple of weeks.

Miss you!
