5 silly blue eyed girls...

Yesterday, we had a visit from more of those superbly cute nieces of mine who currently reside in Missouri. It was a bit tricky at first as the five year old seemed to have NO desire to stay with me, despite having stayed here before. As she sat by the front door and cried, the boy went up to her and talked to her, told her that if she was going to cry, so was he. That helped a little. She eventually warmed up to us, though, and we all had a good time.

I had to giggle when the same five year old came up to me, wrapped her arms around me and whispered in my ear... "(the boy) sure is bigger than he was last summer!" Ha ha!


We had a fabulous time, they posed for some pictures for me, even (and totally gave me a photoshop challenge that was funner than heck as I transposed a head from another picture on to this one... LOL It's good to know when a certain three year old doesn't want to cooperate, you just edit her a little and it's all good!). We all miss them terribly when they aren't here and Ishee asks weekly when they are coming to visit again. Too bad I don't have some sort of control over where they live, eh? (Just for the record, their daddy just got home from his second tour in Iraq, so they go where they are told!).
