Built-in Re-Finish

Mary's Painting came back to re-stain our built-in entertainment center last week. We're very happy with the turn-out (as is Polski).

Hayley Hoop and the Escape from Sideshow Bob

Hayley would just like to thank all of her wonderful family members for their generous birthday gifts. She has saved her money to spend it throughout the year on life's little necessities.





Like this mega-light-up hoola hoop.











She is a hula master. These pictures hardly do her unrivaled talent justice.











We've affectionately named this tree "Sideshow Bob" (for obvious reasons).




Or is "Audrey" more appropriate. (FEED ME.)




In a MacGyver-like moment, Hayley instinctively moves to the cartwheel as her go-to getaway move.

Father's Day

The Man of the Hour just after opening his awesome card with #1 Dad stickers in it. Hayley is touting her subsequent sticker: "My dad is my hero."

Here's how this photo session went.

Meghan: Everyone smile!

Meg: Troy, worst Father's Day smile of all time. Try again.

Meg: HAYLEY!!

Meg: Thank you.

Um, do you hear that? What's that noise?

Hayley: The dog's choking on a carrot.

Troy: Somebody grab him!

Meg: YOU grab him!

Troy: UGH. Fine I have him. I think he's ok.

Meg: Alright, look alive. Literally.
