But that's just part of the story. Inside the house just before we planted the tree, Ryan and I talked about how excited Mom would be about the brand new apricot tree and how much she would love to be there planting it with us. Upon coming outside, Dad and Alicia excitedly told us about an encounter they'd just had with a robin on the fence right near where we were preparing to plant the tree. No coincidence. Mom was excited about the tree after all and a robin was sent to make sure we knew.
As for the rest of the evening, Dad and Ryan began to work on his high-class pine wood derby racecar, but I believe with this car it should be called the oak-cherry wood derby. Here is the work in progress.
Eric went to bed early, he's got to go to Julianne and Joe's early tomorrow morning to water the lawns before his soccer camp. It's hot in our house, excuse his shirtless sleeping.
Alicia is packing for departure to girl's camp tomorrow morning. Well, sort of. She's getting there. She's got to talk to all her friends first.
