Camden Yard

Our visits to Virginia are always memorable, and the evening we returned Michaela was no exception. The storm that blew through (see Lexi's blog for details) left us without power. However, we planned to go to Baltimore the next day to catch the Tribe taking on the Orioles, there was power at Camden Yards, so off to Maryland we headed, decked out in Indians gear. In spite of the intense heat, the Tribe prevailed. We were very impressed with Camden Yards, and had a great time.

Michaela Visits Ohio

We were thrilled to have Michaela with us for the last week in June. School was over, her parents thought she might enjoy a week away on her very own, and we had a blast! Here are a few pictures from our week together.
Other activities: reading to the new doll she received from Great Grandmama, a manicure, sharks in the sea tube at the aquarium, and watching the waves crash at Edgewater Park.
Jim and Michaela checked out the Memphis Kiddie Park, which has been around since 1952. She is in training for Cedar Point - maybe next summer?
Michaela LOVED taking care of Orphie, and he is already missing all the great care she gave him. She also found a robin's egg in the back yard (newly hatched?) and really enjoyed a fantasy exhibit at the Museum of Natural History.
