Family Visit

This past weekend we took a little drive to Jeremy's hometown. Sadly, we had a casualty on the way up. Our camera got dropped! I was sooooo mad! It still takes pictures but the screen is totally busted and I can't see what I'm taking pictures of. I guess it's kind of like having a camera with film again. I hate it!!! How did we ever take any decent pictures without digital?!. Oh well!

We were able to visit Jeremy's uncle and grandma. It was a short little visit but good. I feel bad that we don't get to see them more often. Jeremy's grandma cries every time we have to leave to go back home. It's so sad to see how lonely she gets! She's a very sweet lady, although, I was a little worried to meet her the first time. I had heard stories about how she would tell Jeremy's friends that they were all going to go to you know where because they were LDS. When we finally met for the first time I was prepared and on my best behavior. We had a nice talk while Jeremy sat next to me with his hand on my knee. I later found out that Jeremy's grandma couldn't sleep that night because of the way we acted, and if we kept going down that path we would end up going to "the bed"! All because he had his hand on my knee! I about died! Now that story totally cracks me up! She's so funny and really very sweet. I'm glad we'll be able to visit with her this summer.

We also visited with Jeremy's best friend growing up. They have a little boy just about Jake's age and they had a blast together. I think we're going to plan some fun trips together this summer. Their family is a lot of fun.

Not many of the pictures from our trip turned out very well, but I did have some cute pics from the pool the other day...











Jake found a potato bug that he could not leave alone! He wanted it to turn into a ball and then back into a bug over and over again. Poor thing probably ended up with some sort of damage! I guess boys will be boys.

You still took great shots. I'm so sorry about the camera. A few summers ago I lost my camera that had a whole bunch of cute pics from a family vacation/campout and I was sick for days over it. I think my camera might be my most favorite possession. Tell Jeremy to donate a sale for you to buy a new camera. :)

Virginia looks like so much fun! That stinks about your camera. I hate not having a camera (although, when I do have one I never remember to take it with me).
