Happy Birthday Nick!

This is a picture of our youngest grandson Nick. He was only 5 when this picture was taken. We love our sweet Nick. He is so much fun to be with. Here is another picture of him now...(with his sister Jadie.)

Happy 3rd Birthday Abbie!

Abbie is turning 3 today! It is hard to believe she is the youngest grandchild. We have been so blessed to have such sweet children come into our lives. This picture above is Kelly and Aaron's girls; Emily, Aubrey, and Abbie. We have such fun times when we see them.

Last week we went on an adventure with Scott, Jill and the grandkids. We went to Twin Falls temple open house, Marion, and Shoshone falls. We had a great time, here are a few pics to document our adventure.

Papa's Belly Dance

The kids love when Papa does his Belly Dance...we got an okay shot of it on Kellianne's B-day. We will try to get a better video of it another day.

At the Movies

We went to see a movie with Jill's family. We saw Nim's Island (cute movie)

Dee and his brother Byon "working" on a tractor in our backyard. They still have a great time "playing" together.

A Visit From Byon and Nick

Uncle Byon is so much fun when he comes to visit...we get to learn fun new things and Nick is ready to go to the Blue Goose!

This is Jacob and his date at May Day's in Mendon. He was her escort for the May Day Court.

Ellie's Labor

Ellie had her baby tonight! Luckily the grandkids had just gone out to feed the donkey's a treat. They discovered that Ellie was having a baby. We have a little video to share with you. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Today is Easter Sunday and we are all meeting at Scott and Jill's for dinner.
