I know that most of you have been anxious for me to resume my blogging now that it is summer and the horrors of school are over. By horrors I mean the lack of time that I have to do anything, not that I think of the kids as my little horrors. Although, there are some who might think of that as a compliment.
Anyway, we just got back from a trip through Minnesota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Utah, Nebraska and Iowa. We were on the road a lot and my rear end hurts. We saw big heads carved in rock, went to a place called Wall Drug that wasn't as cool as the fifteen million billboards told me it was going to be. We also saw the Corn Palace and it was a BIG disappointment. We stayed over in a very small town in Wyoming where I wouldn't have admitted that I did not vote for Bush lest someone kill me with their six-shooter.
We finished off the trip in Utah where Daphne got to spend lots of quality time with her grandparents. We will soon start the deprogramming because I don't want her to think that life is always going to include people who will actually answer her when she asks a question or feed her anything more nutritious than cereal.
Here is the photographic evidence:












And of course I was in Utah on Father's Day so I did not let the world know once again what an awesome Dad Jack is and how much Daphne and I love him. Proof of his supreme aswesomness is that he wore this tie ALL DAY. The tie that his daughter picked out all on her own for him because she just knew that was what she was supposed to give him.

SUPER DAD

Those pictures are great. I love the one where you and Jack are impersonating the dinosaur and Daphne is just staring at the ground, wondering how it could be that she is related to you (which I mean as a compliment; I look forward to humiliating Miles with my own dorkiness).

Ya, she was disgusted that we wanted her to strike a pose for the picture. I am looking forward to humiliating her during the teen years.
