Fred Arrives! Day 1

2005, Vacations, , ,

Phredlet arrived on Saturday, so he was here a full week. We didn’t do a lot on his first day here ’cause it was kind of tiring for both of us; he got delayed in his arrival, and I’d been working all day. Boo. We went grocery shopping and I fed him with shribble soup, and after my nap we got ice cream. While he was sleeping I read some of the horrific tome Eldest, but god, I really don’t want to go on.

Before leaving St. Pete we visited Bay Pines Veteran’s Hospital and Cemetary to see Mikey’s grandfather. This is a nice monument there dedicated to those who served.

Moi in the wonderful Haslem’s new and used bookstore. It’s so cool in there. I want to live in one of the aisles. Here is me with all the fairy books. (I got to take a couple home!)

Our next stop was Tampa, and we made a beeline for Meg’s house. Here, Mikey bonds with her daughter Katelyn through TICKLE FIGHTING.

Brendon arrived not too much later, and engaged in the Katelyn poking.
