Oh my...what starts as this...
...quickly turns into this...
...before I can turn it into this.
Turn my head for one second and she's nakey. "But mommy, my jammies got wet."

St. Louis...it's a wrap!
The morning after the party, someone got into the cake icing that had been left on the table.
She had fun helping to clean up.
And volunteered to help Pa with his scratchers.
We said goodbye to Terra and Bill, who headed off to Oklahoma.
And while Porter napped, Penny decided to explore the basement.
Grammy and Pa sure do have a lot of fun things!
Penny taught Uncle Chris how to color (just kidding...Uncle Chris is surprisingly good at coloring).
And we took a few more pics before we had to head off to the airport ourselves.
In case you couldn't tell, there was no giggling...
The cousins said goodbye...
Andria got a few more snuggles.
Aunt Lori and Aubs too!
She packed up her six string and hit the road...until next time!
Happy Birthday Pa!
Settle in...there are a lot of photos in this one. The reason we headed out to St. Louis in June was to celebrate Pa's 60th birthday. Aunt Meggie ordered the most amazing Star Track themed cake. Pa was impressed!
And, so were the party guests.
Friends and relatives traveled from near and far to celebrate with Pa.
So, we cut into that gorgeous cake. And, it was just as delicious as we expected!
Even Bubby had some :)
Porter had a blast hanging with the boys!
And everyone loved meeting Miss Reagan.
Porter proved he was a Thompson, as he had his first taste of cheese balls. He loved them!
The Thompson five were in attendance.
With their families!
And of course, Pa's family!
Old Dude was busy chasing after his grandkids.
Daddy's family together again!
The Johnson & Robinson crew helped with the fun!
Porter enjoyed time with his Emily.
And these two were like two peas in a pod.
They had so much fun playing with the cousins!
Emily learned the hard way that Porter loves to pull hair.
Aubrey Ann did too!
Penny got jelly beans for Pa.
There were some fun plays on the number 60.
Lots of smile...
...lots of fun...
lots of love. For me, it was most awesome to see Penny playing late into the night with her cousins. We decided to ditch bed time and let them build memories!
And memories, they did build. In the middle of their dance party, Penny convinced the girls to do ring around the rosy!
We watched some Thompson family videos.
And spent quality time with the ones we love.
What a great trip! Happy Birthday Pa!
Visitng Nana & Papa
Here's a post from way back in May that I never finished...
The kids had a blast exploring Nana and Papa's house. Penny taught her brother all about the school bus line and they counted the busses each morning.
Porter and Papa enjoyed nap time together.
Penny visited Nana's classroom. She was so excited to be the weather helper!
Bedtime bottle with almost-Uncle Eric.
Early morning stretches with Papa!
Bath time sillies with Aunt Miss!
The inaugural no hands hug.
And Ladybug Girl bedtime stories.
I think they had fun!
