Family Gathering

After a four year hiatus, we went back to Virginia for a big get-together. Mother Nature hadn't heard that it was September and treated us to some 90+ heat, humidity, and biblical bugs.

Some of us slept through it.Aunt Ella and cousins Theo and Miki unsuccessfully try to beat the heat.Hanako sought sanctuary in the shade with G-toko.
Uncle "Ars-surr" was a big hit with his fishing.Danny's first catch!Water balloons are a good way to cool off.
Danny looks a bit overwhelmed by girls.After-dinner sparklers.It's hard to get everyone to not cry at the same time.See you in a couple of years!

Danny and Leigh

Danny plays at Leigh. Her concentration is superb.

And here's some good old fashioned fake/real laughing. Leigh doesn't concentrate so well on the food in her mouth.

Danny has triplets

Danny likes to pretend he's having babies.
Here he is delivering triplets on the couch. It sounds like "naturally" but he's really saying "Pete's not too early." But Baby is.

Unchi Face/

Ordinarily we would blame DHV for making Leigh cry, but this is just her own version of unchi face. On another day, Leigh pretends she is looking for a favorite book. She is actually standing on her tip-toes in her unchi-stance; maybe she gets more leverage? Usually she only lifts the right, I guess she was going for double power on this one.All unching over, happy times.
