Happy Labor Day!

Hope you're having a great holiday weekend! I'm just glad to have my Daddy back home!

He had surgery on his nose and throat on the 21st and has been recovering every since! He was only in the hospital overnight, but, since Mommy has to take care of me and Morgan, Daddy spent the past nine days at Ditty and Grammy's house. And, know what? While they were taking care of him, they both came down with a virus, so everybody took turns taking care of each other! Whew! We're glad THAT'S over!

Anyway, Daddy finally got to come home with us last night and I agreed to sleep in my own bed again. I had been sleeping with Mommy because I didn't like it that Daddy wasn't home with us! He still has to take it easy for another week or so, until he heals up enough to go back to work.

Know what? I go back to school on Tuesday and I'll be in a new classroom with a new teacher! Some of my friends will be there and I'll get to meet some new ones, too! I can't WAIT!

Did you know that one of my great-grandmothers (we call her "Ma") turned 90 years old this month! We took her out to lunch and gave her lots of presents and sang to her in the restaurant! I love her very much!

There's a picture of her below, along with some more from my trip to Busch Gardens. Hope you enjoy looking at them!

Love,

Summertime And The Livin' Is Easy!

Hi, there!

Jayme Lynn here, back from a bunch summer mini-vacations! We've had lots of fun doing things close to home this year because it costs to much to travel!

We've been to Busch Gardens several times and I even got to ride the Log Flume! It was scary at first and there's a BIG DROP at the end, but, once it was over with, I realized how much fun I had! They have a new area with lots of pretty birds to look at. One time, Daddy and I walked up to a parrot and he said, "Hello" to me, just like he was a person!

We saw a show on Pirates and it was scary. I must admit I cried a little bit, but I still like pirates! Once, I wanted to be a pirate when I grow up, but, I've changed my mind. Now, I want to be a doctor and a mommy!

We went to the beach and the waves were scary, too, until I got used to them. I got sand in places I've never had sand in before! Daddy took a nap on the beach and I practiced my hair-styling skills on Grammy! She made us samiches in pocket bread, but my favorite snack was canteloupe! Unfortunately, I think I ate too much, because it came back up on the playground equipment! My little sister, Morgan, didn't like the water, so she mostly played on the sand.

We joined our neighborhood pool again this year and have enjoyed it a lot! I even learned how to float on my back (as long as I have my water wings on!). Ditty even jumped off the diving board, but Grammy said she couldn't watch!

How 'bout them Redskins, huh? They've won both of their pre-season games and I hope they win tomorrow night, too! Ditty and I have been watching the games together, wearing our Redskins jerseys for good luck. They've worked so far!

Daddy and Mommy moved their bedroom downstairs to my level and made a playroom for me and Morgan up where they used to sleep. It's lots of fun and I'll have to show you next time you come over.

For now, have a good weekend!

Love,

Jayme Lynn
