Day with Friends

We spent the day with Mia, Charlotte and Baby Gabrielle.

Gabrielle is SO cute!

Intruder...

We arrived at Deep Creek on Friday to this. Someone had obviously broken into the garage. After investigating, we found nothing taken from the garage. The trash bags had been ripped, but that was the only other damage. We were puzzled by why someone would break-in through the middle of the garage door and still not take anything.

Upon further investigation, we noticed how there were tears in the seat of the riding mower. And not just tears...
...but puncture marks as well! So, this was our final conclusion...

...A BEAR!!! We can only conclude that the bear smelled the trash in the garage and tried to get in. Next on our agenda...a new garage door!

***On Saturday morning, Betsy was running with some friends back up the hill towards the house. About midway up the hill, a black bear crossed the road in front of them! The bear took a look and kept on walking...but the girls were not going to cross the bear's path! They headed straight to a neighbor's house and got a ride home! It was a weekend full of wildlife!***

Special Quilt

Katelyn and Josh had a special visit with Gigi Squires at Granddad and Grandma's house. Gigi completed her quilt for Katelyn - what a special gift! Katelyn was excited to receive this gift and covered up with it all weekend. Josh brought his quilt from Gigi too, so they took a picture of two of Gigi's masterpieces. THANK YOU GIGI!

Josh had fun playing with Granddad's iPhone. :) Who needs toys?

Puzzle Time

Katelyn and Gigi Gallo worked on a puzzle together. Katelyn was very pleased!

Do you think you could trace a truck under these circumstances? Super Pop-Pop!
