Our days in Gville are numbered. It's sad to think it's really over, but I always viewed this home and town as temporary. We've tried to take advantage of the neat things about Gainesville-
- Attended UF Gator Volleyball, Gymnastics, Swimming & Diving, Baseball, Football, & Basketball events

Natalieisms-
- "I know what the President does... he keeps the whole world healthy."
Every night L watches us eat dinner from her walker. Every night she watch us drink from the big red plastic cups. She finally got her hands on her own!
V & Dad went fishing with Girl Scouts on a chilly morning. And look close... she lost a front tooth!!
