Uncle Mark

Each week Mark drops by a time or two to visit, do laundry and eat. Any time I ask Izzy, "Guess who's coming for dinner, she always responds "Maaark?" and grins. Izzy loves visits from Uncle Mark because she gets tossed around and chased after and entertained for a extra few special hours each week. She gets a huge kick out of his laugh and likes it when he tells his animated stories and sings. She also laughs her hardest when Mark is "going off about something". Her newest thing is when we play the Beauty and the Beast dvd, she looks around for Mark (because he watched it with her once and sang along to the music)! Robert and I got a big laugh out of that!

(p.s. Mark, I get a kick out of your calls/texts early in the week to hear our menu and then choose which night you are coming!) I think you came this day because I wasn't working though, that was sweet.
This week, we made homemade Pizza...thank you Mom for teaching us how to make pizzas growing up! Cheree, this picture is for you...although it's not cooked and not a pretty counter, it's for you! :)
Mark, choosing the worst time to change his tire.

Izzy has to sit by Uncle Mark and cross her legs like him too!
Take two! None of us were expecting it!
We're glad you always drop by Mark!

Labor Day Weekend 2010

Another busy weekend has come and gone. It feels like we did so much with our family this weekend, but really we were all able to relax some and enjoy hanging out and playing with Izzy for the weekend. I'm thankful for the extra time with everyone. I just wish we had one more day off to do nothing now! Here are a few pictures to recap the weekend. Grammy made homemade blueberry pancakes while Izzy and Grandpa supervised (and taste-tested) YUM!! I'm pretty sure she said Yum a lot this weekend! Izzy showing Grammy how much she loves to take off and run outside She is growing up too fast - but still cuter than ever! Excited that Cheree and Daniel came too Learning all about Mac Books from Uncle D Laughing when Grandpa makes animal noises, another favorite for Izzy Ahhh ...my daily scene of frustration - wish she would listen to us and NOT stand on chairs every chance she gets...but naturally standing is always more fun than sitting for this daredevil, so we're working on that...

Closer than ever

It was soooooo good to see my brother and sister. I'm glad they will get to see Izzy more too! There is so much to her personality and abilities, it is just too hard to describe her over the phone! Yesterday was a very cool day for me - I got to hang out with my brother, sister and brother in law too... hanging out might not sound like a big deal, but to us, it is exciting because for the first time in a long time - at least 7 years the 3 Voyles siblings all live in the same state. Not just that, but we are only 2 hours away from each other. We have been 10 hours apart for the last 4 years...which meant only visiting each other 3 or 4 times a year - 3 or 4 RUSHED visits is hectic and not enough time together for us. Now with Cheree and Daniel in Chattanooga and we're in Nashville (so is Mark), we're all going to be able to see each other much more often, allowing us days to just "hang out" like we used to. I literally called Cheree and Daniel on Thursday to ask so...
