Christmas Cookies...

Well, Christmas is fast approaching and I'm not ready as usual. I did, however, get my little ones together Sunday evening to decorate cookies. They are all getting so big and it won't be long before they will refuse to do such silly things with Grandma. I was lucky to get Paul to do one cookie.

Trip to Washington...

I spent last week in Washington visiting Brian, Jennifer and kids. It was such a nice visit and I had the opportunity to watch the kids in all their activities...

Cole surprised us by losing his first tooth..


It was fun carving pumpkins for Halloween..


I even got to see Jennifer play on a coed soccor team. She can really boot that ball into the goal..


Saturday we went to Blake's football game. He's #32 on the Tigers.. He's such a great kid.


We watched McKenzie play volleyball. She's got quit a serve. They call her Big Mac for a good reason. You don't want to be fooled by her size, she's powerful..


McKenzie played her flute in sacrament meeting while I was there.

The weather was soooo nice and cool and it was great to get away for a few days, but now it's back to the old grind.

Fun at Schnepf Farms...

Friday night I went to Schnepf Farms with Matt and Julie's family and we met April, Ryan and their kids there. It was lots of fun watching them ride the rides, get their faces painted and climb the rocks. The maze wasn't much of a challenge for Paul, we walked in and right back out, mmmmmmI wonder...

PEACHES, PEACHES, PEACHES

April, Cheryl and I spent the day canning peaches.

Slumber Party

Last night some of my granddaughters came over and we had a slumber party. They are lots of fun. We ordered pizza and wings for dinner. Then we watched the Hanna Montana concert on the Disney Channel. It was 3-D and the girls had their glasses. I enjoy them all so much. I can't help brag a little...I have the most beautiful granddaughters in the world. They are all so sweet and so well behaved. We missed McKenzie and Brenley. I promised the boys that I'll take them to a movie this week. I think they're Okay with that. They weren't too interested in a slumber party. I have to admit that Grandma has a hard time keeping up these days...

Scooters, Scooters, Scooters...

The boys are busy selling scooters. They are selling them as fast as they can get them in. Sometimes they sell them in the crates. With gas prices so high it's a great time item to be selling.

Memorial Day

Memorial Day was fun. The kids all came over for a BBQ. We ate and the grandkids played in the backyard with waterguns and the slip-N-slide.

OKay, I will blog...

Since I returned from Women's Conference I've had a lot going on. My brother stayed with me a few days because he broke his leg falling off the step of his camper. He spent a few days in the hospital and is now back home. When I got back to work I found out everyones hours were being cut. The homebuilding business is not the place to be right now. It's hard to believe that after almost 20 years at this job I may have to find another one... oh well.

I am so blessed...I have a wonderful family and I'm so proud of them. The grandkids are all out of school (here in Arizona) and the ones in Washington will be soon. I'm hoping to spend more time with them all this summer.

I did finally get a new computer. The old one was a dinosaur and it was time to replace it. The new one is nothing fancy, but plenty for my needs. I guess I need to use it a little more.
