| Maile! (And yours truly.) |
Maile is lovely, intelligent, polite, friendly, adorable, wonderful...I could go on! We had so much fun hanging out at Brian's Grandpa's 80th Birthday party! Just to give you a glance into how much fun we had, here's a funny little snippet from one of our conversations:
Maile: "I feel like you're a teenager!"
Erin: "I am a teenager!" (Frantically thinking of how I will convince Maile that I'm twenty-nine-teen...)
Maile: "No, you're not." [Followed by a blank stare that basically explained that she wouldn't be fooled.]
Erin: (Ok, she's way to smart for me.) "Ok, maybe I'm not, officially, but guess how old I am."
Maile: "21?" (Maile, I think this officially makes us new besties!)
Erin: "A little higher."
Maile: "24?"
Erin: (Technically that is a little higher.) "A little bit higher."
Maile: "27?"
Erin: "Ok. A little bit more."
Maile: "28?!" (At this point, I'm sure Maile is thinking, 'If this girl really is 28, she needs to grow up.')
Erin: "Ok, just a teensy bit higher."
Maile: "29?!!"
Erin: "Yep, you got it!"
[Followed by a bunch of giggles from the both of us!]
After Maile walloped me in Chinese checkers (yes, folks, I lost...royally), we got a little artsy and started making some designs using the game pieces!

| Our flower! |

| Our 'upgraded' flower! We both agreed that this was our favorite! |

| The American Flag - 'America the Beautiful' tune by Erin. |

| Nemo! Come on, use your imagination, folks. See the water? The seaweed? Nemo? |
Maile and her Mama, Mary Sue, head back to Chi-town tomorrow, but we are so thankful to have been able to meet these two extraordinary people and spend some good QT together using our imagination!
PS: Thanks for playing with me, Maile! It was really great to meet you and I had sooooo much fun!
