Hi Gram’s. Tina say very chipper

Hello dumpling. Bette just smiles loving the nickname Tina’s grandmother has given her it’s so sweet. Are you still on your trip?

Yes, Gram’s, we go home Saturday morning. What’s everyone up too?

Well your mom’s right here and your Dad’s outside with Jeffery, and Russell. Russell brought over a load of feed. They should be in, in a minute for lunch.

Good I wanted to talk to everyone.

Miss us already do you? I figured Bette would have you so preoccupied that you wouldn’t think about us for one minute. Grams giggles

Well she has kept my mind elsewhere most of the time. But we have been to the Maya ruins and a Museum in town. Did some shopping and tried lots of local cuisine. And we’re enjoying the beach right now. Tina can hear commotion in the back ground and feel nervous all of a sudden. Tina takes Bette’s hand in hers.

Bette was listening but no fully she had found an article of interest and was reading when Tina grabbed her hand pulling her from her concentration.

Hey guy’s settle down Christina’s on the phone…her mother tells them

Oh sorry. Russell says. Tell her we all said hey and hope she having fun while us meek people have to work…then he laughs and Tina heard him

Tell him I am enjoying it and I don’t feel sorry for him in the least.. By this Time Grams had put it on speaker…

Oh wait till you come back here I’m going to have you do Jeffery’s job down at the hardware…while I set in the shade with lemon…

Hey I can do it! Tina spat back…

Yea I just bet you can he’s has a pansy job… Russell says tapping Jeffery in the stomach with the back of his hand.

Oh I got your pansy right her Russ, as he starts to go after him.

Boy’s take it outside! Mom say’s …they don’t hear her. Jeffery ducked down to grab Russell legs while Russell is trying to dodge him….Joe! Don’t just stand there do something..

Boys! They stop and just look at each other… then at their mom

Sorry they both say.

See what you cause Christina just with one phone call. Joe says
