BMX Queen

Hello all, so it looks like Finley blew my cover. It's me - "Ralph" - photo editor and fill-in autobiographer. I apologize up front for my lack of creativity compared to Fin's writing but I'll do my best.

Grandma was here for a couple weeks and she had previously brought Mabel a bike. Well this visit we got it fixed up a little bit - think new tire, straightened handlebars and bell on the front - and away she went.

And soon she was riding on her own.

And by the next day, well, I could barely keep up as she was speeding up and down the block.

Big shout-out to Grandma for bringing such a wonderful gift such a long way. Thanks Grandma!

Disney - DisME!

So the recent posts you've been reading have probably lacked some of the quality writing you've grown accustomed to here at FinleysBeginleys. That's because, well, they weren't penned by moi. My photo editor - we'll call him Ralph - has taken over the keyboard to let you know what's going on at home because I'm actually sending him this transcript to post from DISNEY WORLD!!!

Yep, left last Sunday morning on an airplane with my Uncle Brian and Aunt Tasha and met up at Disney with Nana, Papa, Uncle Kenny, Aunt Suzy, Hannah, Luke, Sophie, Eli and Isaiah.

I only have a few photos that I've taken from my mobile device and forwarded to "Ralph" so here you go. Many more to come upon my return.

Okay, gotta run, off to Thunder Mountain. Ciao for niao!

Good Hair Day

So I was asking mom about curly hair and why hers was curly and mine wasn't and Mae's was kinda wavy. We got into making curly hair straight and straight hair curly, and then it got really awesome.

So she put my hair up in these braids for the night, tucked tightly into bobbie pins.

Then when I was finishing up Mae got into the de-tangler and started spraying things, mostly her shirt, and then I took over and got her hair going.

We woke up this morning and my photo editor, we'll call him Ralph, had the camera at the ready. Mae's hair... um, not so much, pretty much the same.

Didn't seem to bother her much, though.

But my hair... are you ready... drumroll, please... Bam! Got myself some fancy waves and curls.
