DAY FOUR

Day Four highlights: 1) Clare met her cousins Kianna and Avery. Kianna gave Clare one of her Bengals t-shirts but I'm guessing by the looks of things that Clare would rather be a Colts fan! 2) Clare took a ride on the Bumbo in Roman's kiddie pool. And then she had a fierce stare down with the giraffe. She loved being in the water, which we hoped would happen since she enjoys bath time. 3) Jill was brave and took the girls on the giant trampoline. Steve's sister Jeanne lives next door on the lake to his parents and they have this huge trampoline off the beach area behind their house. The girls loved it. Jill was impressive with her rah-rah moves. 4) Steve took the girls for individual rides on the wave runner. Then Jill got brave again and rode one of the wave runners too. It was so exciting to see the girls giggling, having a good time, and enjoying themselves being a kid at the lake on a hot sunny day. 5) Late that evening, Steve's nieces Nicole and Kim gave me a pedicure. I ended up with beautiful feet, blue sparkly nail polish on my toes, with two glitter stickers on my big toe. Usually not my style but it was fun to mix things up! 6) We then concluded the evening with a game of Balderdash. I had to cop out early to tend to Clare but I heard that Ben received a Gary-award for making up the acronym FTBS -- Free The Blue Smurf.
