Eve, the Nemitz mama, and I are very similar in personality. We're both recovering elementary teachers turned homeschool mom. She's the only person I know who loves her rubbermaid and label maker as much as I do. We both tend to have a plan A, plan B, and plan C on hand at any given time. The good thing about that is that we tend to understand each other. She can grasp why I get such satisfaction in an orderly attic. However, she's also good at reminding me that it has little eternal value and that I need to get out of the attic and have fun with my kids too. Most of the time, we're good for each other.
In typical Eve and Christy fashion, we decided to tackle the t-shirt project on the cover of this month's Family Fun magazine. So, yesterday afternoon, we found ourselves elbow deep in a variety of red, white, and blue t-shirts, ribbon, buttons, and thread. The kids tried to hang with us, but in the end some of the finish work was left to us. The t-shirts turned out cute, although the painted ones her boys chose didn't dry in time to wear them to the big Franklinton fireworks put on by the American Legion. Of course, I snapped some pics of the day, and of course here they are for your viewing pleasure.

Isaac and Ian- good buddies!
The whole Campbell Clan
Enjoying snowcones at the Franklinton football field.
Abe wasn't picky about who he begged snowcone from.
Emily Nemitz escorting Abe down his first inflatable slide run. That was also his last for the evening. Let's just say he wasn't loving it!
Abe enjoyed licking the flag more than waving it, maybe next year!
