Squirt attack

Getting ready for a road trip. . . .

Gotta get my hair done

On our way to Jessica’s house in Melbourne, we had to stop to get gas. While Fred filled it up, I looked around the gas station for something to prank him with. I found a squirt gun, bought it, filled it up in the bathroom, and when Fred came in to pay . . . ATTACK!

Here’s the next morning. I was getting ready to go out mini-golfing, and decided to show Fred what I looked like with my hair tucked into my shirt!

At Putt-Putt, Fred mini-golfing.

Safety Fair!

Scott and I finally got to do our Safety Fair project on bike safety. We made a deal that I would do most of the project if he would do the majority of the presentation and interaction with kids. 🙂

Here’s me with my little cat ears headband on. Look! I’m from Josie and the Pussycats!

When we got back to Gainesville, we visited some shops. I like Books Inc.

Fred had never had “grits” before, as it is sort of a Southern food. He had ordered some in the restaurant but we didn’t have the camera then. Here’s our memory of his experience with grits.

Me in the store with bananas, and a Chiquita sticker on my head!

At Mother Earth they had these cool cheesecakes. Fred stocked up.

Happy birthday Lindsay!

We went to my parents’ house to visit my sister on her birthday. Here’s my sister Lindsay, me, and my dad, while she opened her presents.

Surprising Lindsay for her birthday

Fred and I gave Lindsay a card with a cute moon on it. She apparently liked it. (I hope.)

Here’s me with a big blow-up bat with which I was preparing to smack Fred, probably.

Here’s Fred riding a bike to the picnic we were going to have.

We had our picnic on a roof; here is me on the wall that is around the outside of the roof.

Lounging on the wall

And here’s me on the wall again, because Fred seems to be camera-happy.

There’s Fred enjoying the food of the picnic.

There’s me, also picnicking.

After lunch we played my game, The Phantom Whistler. On a second-story roof, I whistle and then see if the people on the ground figure out where the sound is coming from.

Whistling at passersby

These are some people we photographed who were walking by while I was whistling. Hehe!

There’s me populating! Another one of my pranks: I made little men out of clay and give them roof-pebble heads, and place them all over the music building in a mini-men invasion.

Fred helped. 🙂
