And it's good to be back too! My family and I recently took a trip down to AZ for a family reunion. But before I get a whole bunch of comments telling me about how crazy I am for going to AZ because it's so hot you need to know that we didn't go to Phoenix. In fact, where we went it's about the same temperature as here. So now you can relax and know that I'm not as crazy as you think. :) My dad is from AZ so his family got together for 3 or 4 days during his town's annual 24th of July Celebration. There's an ice cream social. Basically they back up the shwans man truck at the park and they just scoop ice cream until they're out. It doesn't cost anything and you can go back as many times as you want. We also went to a campfire circle. It's just a big field and cars park around in a circle and people are just BBQing or talking by their cars. When you walk around the circle you can talk to and see all the people you haven't seen in awhile. I don't think any other town in the world has this. But for my dad, who only makes the 9 to 11 hour trip every couple years, he really enjoys seeing his old classmates and friends. While we were there Tally got her 3rd tooth! It's right at the top so now she can eat big girl food! She loves soup, crackers, muffins and french fries now. Tally also learned how to Pat-a-cake all by herself. She claps her hands, slaps her knees, then throws her hands in the air. Once in a while she will even say "cake cake cake" while she's doing it. It's very cute to watch. (One of the pictures I'm posting with this blog is she and I playing Pat-a-cake)
