I didn't get to finish preparing the garden today because it poured rain - but didn't hail like at the girls' houses. Joanna described piles of ping pong ball sized hail on the swing set and all over the yard - striking looking and a little alarming.I learned that both of the new babies had ingrown toe nails this week. Joanna fixed Andrea's and, at Ruth's request, also fixed Liam's. I don't remember ingrown toenails on babies.

Bob and I are planning a big road trip for July. I've pretty much decided to take the whole month off. We have reservations already at Yellowstone and he north rim of the Grand Canyon! . We will also go to Bryce Canyon, which I have not seen. I'm really excited. We will take the KDZ with us, Bob's choice for his sixtieth birthday summer,

Victoria, I so enjoy reading about your life - life with Bob, your daughters, and all the grands. I don't think I've ever heard of ingrown toenails on babies, either. How unusual that both of these oh so close little cousins have them at the same time.
Your road trip sounds perfect, and I love that it's Bob's choice to take the kids.

The road trip you and Bob are planning sounds wonderful! What a nice thing to do for Bob's 60! And how nice of you to take the kids too.

OMG, Victoria. This sounds absolutely amazing. A whole months vacation!!!! Wow, you really know how to do it up good. What a great way for Bob to spend his birthday. This is one I know Bob, the kids, and you will remember always.

Great trip planned. What a nice treat for the bigger kids. We have visited most of those places over the years (except Yellowstone) but I would like to go back again and reabsorb them. We are currently thinking maybe Death Valley in May and perhaps the Grand Canyon if we have time. We hope to feel like doing this during Steve surgery recovery period. But we will be playing it by ear.
