HI ALL!! RECENTLY NINHA SENT SOME PICS OF THEIR FUN 4TH OF JULY, SO HERE THEY ARE FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT!! EVERYONE LOOKS HAPPY AND HEALTHY AND HAVING A GOOD TIME!! BOTH OF THE KIDS HAVE BEEN SPENDING LOTS OF TIME AT DAY CARE AND SUMMER CAMP, SWIMMING IN THE POOL AND BEING OUT IN THE SUN SO THEIR HAIR IS REALLY GETTING LIGHTER, ESPECIALLY DREW'S - HE'S SUCH A TOTAL 'TOW HEAD' NOW!! AND IT'S HARD TO BELIEVE SHAWNNA IS ONLY 7-1/2 CONSIDERING HOW TALL SHE IS GETTING - SOON, SHE'LL BE PASSING UP HER MOM!! MAYBE EVEN PASSING UP THAT TALL GUY IN THE PIC - ABE LINCOLN!!

THE PIC OF DREW ENJOYING THE SPARKLER BRINGS BACK MANY FUN MEMORIES OF MY YOUTH AND EVEN WITH MY KIDS, WHEN WE WERE STILL ALLOWED TO BUY FIREWORKS AND SHOOT THEM OFF AT HOME. THERE WOULD BE FIREWORKS GOING OFF ALL UP AND DOWN THE STREET PLUS THE ONES UP IN THE AIR!! OH, WELL, GONE ARE THOSE DAYS IN SO CAL. GLAD FOR SHAWNNA AND DREW, THE STATE OF VIRGINIA STILL LETS YOU HAVE THEM SO THEY CAN MAKE SOME OF THOSE SAME MEMORIES!!

LOVE YOU ALL,

CASSY
