Uncles are fun!

Well, we are back and we had an amazing time with my brother and his family! It was a very busy vacation, not one that was relaxing at all, but lots of fun was had and lots of memories were made!

When I was growing up some of the best times and best memories I had are times I spent with my Uncle. He took us to the local swimming pool with him daily in the summer. He was a lifeguard there so we were there open to close everyday. Summers I spent at least a week with him once he moved away and got married. Those are still some of my favorite memories.

I'm glad to say that I think Girlie will also have fond memories of her Uncle. Her "Uncle Bubby", as she calls him, is always willing to play and act crazy and give her chocolate candy for breakfast!

The day we were leaving Uncle Bubby helped us load our car. On the way back to return the cart he and Girlie had a bit of a ride!

I didn't get many pictures because I didn't notice at first, but this is one that shows how he was pushing and spinning her around the parking lot! She was thrilled!







She wanted to keep doing it forever.
I'm almost positive this will be one of her fondest memories from the trip! I have tons more to share but these were some of my favorite pics from the trip.
I really wish my brother and family lived closer. That's my dream! Maybe someday!
Do you have fond memories with your Uncles?

It looks like she was having a ball! I was so close to my uncle Kenny, who passed away back in 1997. He was so great to me, I think my fondest memory is shooting off fireworks with him every July 4th. He would always buy me 'special' fireworks that my stinky boy cousins (I was the only girl)didn't get. I really miss him and I wish Trevor could have met him.

I could imagine Jason being a great uncle and I remember you and how you adored your uncle and the times you got to spend with him. The car seat in the luggage cart is priceless. So cute!
