Grand Daughter

I just had to post these pictures because Trina is just so cute! I love her dimples when she smiles. Here she is with Grandpa Rocky.

Here she is telling her Uncle Tregar a secret.

Now That's a BIG Dog

Saudalor, means king of kings in Micronesian.

He wanted to join in on the fun on the trampoline.

It's an attack dog...oh no...yeah right! Just a big playful scooby do.

Just to give you an idea of how big he is, Kodi is 6 foot 3 inches.

That's our little puppy. Okay he's 3 1/2 years old now but still thinks he's a puppy.

Play Time

Having fun on the trampoline with our grand kids, Tristan & Trina.

Garden

So this year we decided to put in a garden. We're trying to be more self sufficient.

Our son, Kodi, helping prepare the ground.

Our future farmers of America helping till the dirt.

Now that is a true farmer!

Hay Ride

Okay it's not exactly a hay ride but it's definitely more fun. Grandpa took the kids for a joy ride using the four wheeler.

Stopping to greet the dog.

And off again...

Grandma's turn.

Dress Up

Monday the 23rd I had all the kids, Sora, Olivia, Lilli, Tristan & Trina. Sora decided to play dress up and used Lilli as her doll. Lilli was willing in the beginning but soon grew tired of being a prop.

Lilli clapping her hands while Sora holds her up for a picture.

Chocolate

Baking is a regular occurrence at our house. So the girls wanted me to take pictures of them making chocolate chip cookies.

Ummmm...the finished product. Yum!

And...me

Monster Truck Jam

The weekend of March 14th the Monster Truck Jam was in town. So we took our grandkids (Tristan & Trina) and the girls (Sora & Olivia). They had so much fun screaming and yelling and pluggin their ears. Sora really loved the dirt bikes and the high jumps they did. She told me that she was going to do that some day. The kids really thought it was exciting to watch the big truck crash at the end of the show.

I would have had more pictures but I thought I couldn't take my camera in. So Rocky took it back to the truck for me. Come to find out I could have brought it in. Bummed me out.

A Favorite Past Time

One of the weekends we were sick Rocky and I just decided to spend the day reading. It was just so nice to hang out together and read.

Swimming

So do you know what happens when you swim with your eyes closed? Just ask our little Sora...

Dad took the girls to the Nampa Rec Center so they could swim. Of course the pools have so much chlorine the girls swim around with their eyes closed. Well this time Sora happened to run right into the wall. Poor girl. She was a little embarrassed about it but took it like a champ.

Crafts

The girls and I like to do crafts. So we decided to make jewelry. We made necklaces and bracelets.

Sora & Olivia working intently on their projects.

And me making a bracelet for each of the girls.
