A Thief in the Park

YaYa: It may seem unimportant, but to whoever stole my sister’s Barbie doll from Humboldt Park, you suck. She brings her dolls everywhere to take pictures and today a girl stole one of them at the park. When asked about it she promptly stuffed it in her parents car, got in, and then the family left. This isn’t the first time that our things have gotten stolen from Humboldt. Although I doubt this situation is of much importance to anyone, just a reminder to *try* to be a decent person. Teach your kids not to steal. This was a $20+ doll, one that my sister loves and adores. If you see this, and your kid has magically acquired a new doll, there is a $10 reward.

For reference: it’s the one on the far right. 

This the girl, photobombing a picture that my sister had taken.

LOL

Lisa told Junie to throw out this Barbie we found after a winter buried below the trampoline. "No, I think she's pretty. She's Reality Barbie" LK said. "Yeah, if your reality is meth," said Lisa.

A Day with Junie and Grandpa

Monday was a tough day. Not without its good, but a tough day all the same. For part of it my #Bookends and I watched my stepfather-in-law. While there, LK talked me into playing Barbie with her.
