More Of Our Little Visit

 This is when we found out my sister is having a baby.  So now two sisters are having babies!

 The kids were so funny.  They all went to Grandma and Grandpa's room to find shoes.  Then after trying some on for size they coordinated a little dance to put on for the adults.  They would come out laughing, shake their booties, then blow a kiss laughing the whole time and then go back to do it again.  The influence of the oldest grandchild, I love it.

Perhaps soon I will find the pictures Willie took while I was away.

A Short Visit to Utah

May 22, 2014

We didn't waste time getting some vacation time in after school.  We headed to Utah for a visit.  We stayed with my parents for about a day and then I left with my sisters and mom back to Colorado while Willie took the kids to stay with his mom.  Jordan really knows how to make the kids laugh.  She will tell them stories that are super funny to the kids.

This tree is one that everyone needs to have their picture in at some point.  This tree has been around for my whole life and has provided so much happiness.  It's an apricot tree.  We used to pick apricots putting them into the metal buckets and then wrapped around the tree was the scale where folks would weigh their produce.  This tree was perfect for climbing in.  We have had so many pictures in this tree.  I think soon this tree won't be around much longer.  It sits in front of my parents home.

Mckinley let us use her stylin' car.  What fun it was to drive it around.

This picture cracks me up because of Henry's excitement, throwing his head back laughing like a mad man.

We will have to wait 13-14 years before he can drive her around again.

Last Day of 1st Grade!

May 21, 2014

Parker's last day of First Grade.  Such a wonderful day, the sun was shining the kids were happy...well for a little bit.

Here's Parker with his teacher who just happens to live on the same street as us.  Yeah for Mrs. S.

When we got home after playing with friends for a few minutes then we pulled out some water, but mother nature decided that she wanted to play too.

The sun was shining but the rain came and the kids had fun playing around with the sponge balls that Aunt Terrah made for us awhile ago.

I love when you can see the sun but in the distance or sometime close by you see the beauty of the dark clouds.  I love when my kids are happy playing together enjoying life.
