Jessie at Toy Story 4
Brian took Dorothy to see Toy Story 4 this weekend. She dressed in her Jessie hat, and I asked her if anyone mistook her for the real Jessie. "No," she said. "It was dark in there."

The Sunday Funnies
Dorothy's phone wasn't working. She brought it to me and watched me push a few buttons. "Oh, right," she said. "It was in airplane flight mood."
You Tube Kids has a timer and in order to extend the timer you have to answer a multiplication fact. Dorothy had been watching her phone for much longer than I had set the timer. I asked her how. She answered, "First I asked you, then I asked my daddy, then I counted on my fingers."
Something we read mentioned the initials "FFC". "What does that say?" Dorothy asked. "I don't know," I told her. "Just try," she said. "Sound it out."
I looked at my birthday list on July 11. "Today is your great-granny's birthday," I said. "That's Granny Annie." Dorothy smiled. Then I picked up my phone to text our cousin Natalie who also celebrates on July 11. I spoke into the phone, "Happy birthday!" Dorothy looked at me with wide eyes and said, "Wait...is she still alive?"

Vacation Photos!
We enjoyed a whole week in the Middle America over the Fourth of July, packing mostly red, white, and blue clothes.
We bookended our trip with Brian's college roomate and his family (Dan, Cara, Brady, & Ellie) in Denver, and also visited with Dan's parents.
For five days and four nights we stayed in Spearfish Canyon Lodge on the western edge of South Dakota, and mini-hiked with Sarah's college roommate, Julia, who lives in the Black Hills.
We daytripped to Mount Rushmore (Rapid City, SD), Devils Tower (Wyoming), and Deadwood, SD.
We were a group of 13: Brian, Sarah, and Dorothy Jane; Brian's parents (Marilyn & Chuck); Brian's brother and family (Matt, Katie, Erik, & Ellie); and Katie's family (mother Lynn, aunt Sharon, father Mike, and brother Dave).
