I Suck At Blogs

It's true.

We learned how to suck thumbs.

Piper Cousins Meet

We had quite a weekend with the Rhode Island Pipers making their way down to Southwest Virginia.  It was too short a visit, but nice for cousins to meet...

and to learn guitar...

and the best part...Lucy's Lullaby was debuted by Eugene...like to hear it here it goes...

and the perfect end to a perfect weekend...

I told Wendy this looks like we fell asleep and I woke up a baby...she's been creeped out ever since...
