The latter part of the summer was
wrapped up with family events. Grandma helped Alea and I make suncatchers
by putting glass pieces into molds and then melting them (I brought mine
with me to Belgrade). I also had a quality afternoon with dad at the Mall
of America where I got my official King Leinenkugel outfit (so named by
Grandpa)
We went camping with all the cousins
on the Hebrink side. We're all of an age now were we can play lightsabers
and Legos together. Alea is still the only girl out of all the families,
but she still seem pretty well adjusted!
Of
course, I love to swim around with cousin Nathan's shark fin googles on
and practice my Jedi technique.
