More Family Fun

On Friday evening, we went back to Aunt Claire's house for another swim and another visit. We also had a great dinner of BBQ ribs, rice, and corn on the cob. This was Andrea's first official attempt at corn on the cob--she held it all by herself, and with help from Daddy and Joanna, had soon caught on that she needed to spin it, and move her mouth across the cob, as she ate. Of course, we all paid the price the next day . . . you know what happens with corn!

Another point of note: Andrea was swimming on her own with water wings this time! She would sit on the pool steps, then slide/jump in; then she would swim a little circle around on her own, climb back up the stairs, and start over. We were amazed at her rapid progress with the water wings!

On Saturday afternoon, we took Andrea to my uncle's wedding ceremony. She was the only little one there, and she behaved pretty well, except for the occasional well-placed comment, and sudden outbursts of applause. For example, after they finished their vows, she yelled, "OKAY!" and "YES!"

Since everyone was all dressed up, I took the opportunity to get a nice picture of Andrea with Grandma Marty and Grandpa Rick, from Montana.
