Ady got "AIR"...

I have had Holly's kids at my house alot lately...
due to the move, the flu, and a few days in Seattle with Davis.
I have a few fun pix ... I will add them at a later date.

Ady loves to jump on the trampoline.
She works hard to get height...
look at me gramma, I jump high :)

She is really frightened of going high...

but she tries anyway...

and is so excited when she succeeds.

Matthew's main thing right now is the kitty... he called the other night and wanted to talk to the kitty on the pone... phone. Next time he does that I think I'll meow for him hehe :)

He is out searching for the Kitty in her hiding place in the back yard...behind the shed:)

Tanner is getting sooooooo old... He is using a saw. We had a hoe that the handle broke on. And I decided that the hoe was good, so I decided I would cut the handle off to make a short hoe... Well, it turned into a family affair. Everyone took a turn with the saw...yes, it was sharp, but I was right there except when I was snapping pictures...


The weather has been so cold that it's hard to plan outside stuff. We just get out there and do it when we can. Note the hats and coats and the red noses...and runny noses :)

I am off to work on the barn and garage this next few weeks... John and Abi have almost got their stuff arranged and moved around. So now it's my turn to mess up the garage and fill up the garbage :) Anyone want to help...come on over !!!

FYI: Lex and Seth leave June 7th for AZ for 6 weeks...they will have their cell phone and we may keep the text messaging until they return...

My favorite Bug is a Praying Mantis... I grow them in our backyard.



My favorite flavor of ice cream is Pralines and Cream...caramel without the chocolate.



My favorite color to wear is RED... and I look good in red :)



My favorite sport is volleyball, to play... to watch is soccer, to view on t.v. either football or golf... easy to sleep to :)

EASTER 2008 AT GRAMMA'S


Quick Update


Easter at Gramma's


Lexis brought some friends with her...




it was fun... crazy, but fun...
Yes, they were driving me crazy...
or just driving...
They will never use my cars or vans or autos!!!







Then they got dumped out of the egg hunt...not enough eggs for all :)


(if looks could kill, someone would be dead right now by the look on Lexie's face)


Tons of food and candy running around for all to eat and fill the sweet tooth.





Isabelle doing her first egg hunt...


last year she wasn't old enough to play...

she did great, got all the money and

her share of the big treats...

even a toy car or 2 .

Mike, Dawn, Alexis, Seth and Isabelle came.


It was very cold and windy. Not sure we have enough layers on to keep out the cold.



Ady and Brittanya out looking for the hidden eggs !!!

a lot of eggs for her basket. This was fun...

We had a good turn out.



Holly, Davis, Tanner, Ady and Matthew came.
Look up high Matt!!!


Those that came had fun.



Tanner had a great spot to look... found a ton too!!!










Brittanya,

who is starting a new job back in SLC... no more in Utah Co.

Then we have the newly weds... Hannah and Mitch,
can you tell Han was cold... nah... she just wanted to wear that "thing" around her and Rachael and her friend, John... Ady's John !!!

Alfie had a few hours off of work to come and eat dinner with us.

My friend, Kim... came too.

She was a great help counting eggs (we always loose count!!) and running after some of our little piglets... Thanks for coming Kim :)

Audree, who took out her pigtails just before we got ready to hunt for eggs.





Don't you like those cute little lumps on the side?





She had fun and her dad, John got here just after the hunt and just in time for dinner... (John had to work...)

She was very hard to pin down long enough for a pix... I had to have her pose, stop, look and listen...





Mitch helped out with pictures and took a few of his wife...dah...







she is ready to kick you in the head or is that nose :)
Hannah, you kinda look snotty!!! I told Mitch to stop taking your picture...but did he listen... NO


HAPPY SPRING.... HAPPY EASTER... SEE YOU NEXT YEAR....

His team has a group of great boys...the coach seems to really care about the boys.  He allows all to play.100_5485

 

 

Lexi, Mark, Poppie and I went to his game on Valentine's Day... We went to dinner and had the best time. 

 

100_5556 After the game was over, we got a snack and dropped the kids off at their home.

 

We didn't get home until after 10 p.m. ...but we would do it again if given the opportunity.  Hint, Hint,...

 

Our next jaunt will be to go to Alexis' dance review...coming up soon...I hope.  More pix to come after that... We love to support our grandkids as they try out new things and learn to enjoy doing different sports and adventures.

Cousins at Play in Utah!!

These boys played, and played and played.
They wanted to play video games, but that was a big NO from a momma. They tried to get the Rock Band out... no good. They were very disappointed. How can they get to know one another and play, if they are zoned into a video game... so the momma's banned those kind of games and they had to choose something else... They decided upon these blocks. PERFECT!!!


We got together at Holly's on Saturday to let the cousins play...
Tanner, Taye, and Kai.
Matthew and Adylin were around too, but they were the 'little' ones here...
and the big boys didn't want the babies to play.


They really had a great time.
The boys were so busy playing that they forgot to EAT!!!


They ran around and played until the momma's
and the gramma was sooooooo tired, we needed a nap...


The funny thing about the way they played was,

they talked, but played with their own color on their own space...

we girls were amazed by this.

So non girly :)
