Phoenix 2010

 In August Chloe and I decided we needed to go visit the Phoenix clan. We had the best time.  Cousin Colleen now has a baby so, staying at Aunt Megan and Uncle Jeff's house now means having a full time play friend in her cousin Anela (AKA Nelly), yahoooo!!!  Grandpa D and Grandma Jacquie came over for lunch one day and, Chloe had a great time coloring with Grandma Jacquie and kicking a ball with Grandpa D.  We also got to head to the lake and go out on the boat with Grandpa Art (who let Chloe drive the boat) and Grandma Meg.  It was such a relaxing fun filled weekend.

Giving Nelly kisses.  Chloe couldn't get enough of those cheeks.

Look at this happy crew.  Love the smile on Grandma Meg.

Grandpa Art was explaining the way his sonar worked and Chloe listened so intently, I was really impressed

Chloe still paying attention, look at that look of concentration

LOL!! Cousin Angela gave Anela this flower mask and Chloe just had to try it on and pose for the camera.  Love my littlel Flower Girl.

Go Flower Girl

This is how both girls started off the day.  Drinking milk while chilling on the big dog.  It was reallly cute.

Chloe had a great time giving Anela rides on the car.  She held on really tight so Anela wouldn't slide off.  Chloe had such a blast staying with Anela.



Driving the boat. 

Digging on the beach at the lake.  The fish were biting so we kept telling her she was getting poked by sticks so she wouldn't be scared of the water but, dang when they bit it made you jump.
