Oh Dear!

Much to my dismay - I guess - between my computer crashing and the battery in my camera going dead - I have lost most of the pictures of Munchie's visit with us!  We had such a nice visit - and no pics!  There seems to be only two.....

........... this one - Munchie and Poppa are trying to get the toy from his happy meal to work properly - I don't think they ever figured it out.  And another....

.......... from the same day - but neither of them are very good.  Poppa and Munchie had so much fun while he was here.  They went swimming every day, they tried out all the playground equipment in every playground around - even the one across the road from our old house, they had a ride on the little train at the park (and Munchie got an engineer's cap!), we all went shopping a couple of times and Poppa and Munchie went miniature golfing at a location close to us where we could also get ice cream cones since it was very warm during Munchie's visit.  So - to make up for the lost pictures.....

.......... here is a shot of the boys in one of the new outfits for school.  Munchie is the slightly taller one on the right in the grey pants and Curtie is in maroon pants.  Here is another picture........

......... taken in the school yard.  Munchie is third from the right in blue shorts and white shirt, while Curtie is on the extreme right in the hoodie.  The bottom insert on the right also includes Daddy!  Mommy just called and said Munchie qualified for the cross-country running team at his school.  He runs like a gazelle and loves doing it, so we're not surprised at all!  I'm still knitting on the blanket for Mommy and Daddy - pictures will follow.  But, I have finished the pair of socks that travel in the car with me and posted them in the sock file for further scrutiny....

........ they look like this.  Auntie Colleen will recognize them - she sees them every Tuesday while we are visiting Gramma Grace and Aunt Peggy!  And.........

...... also every Tuesday, Auntie Colleen, Poppa, Auntie Cecile (from left to right) and myself get together for lunch at the golf course.  Tuesday is the only day Poppa doesn't golf, but there are only two weeks of golfing left before the golf club closes for the season!  I wonder what he will do with himself then????
