I Love Florida!

Wendy lives a beautiful place, but the best thing about it is not the white sand or emerald water, it's the grandkids I get to see!

We went to the beach to try to get some pictures. Sally came in a mood, and pretty much was not cooperating the whole time. Even so, we got some pretty good pictures. With such great subjects, it helps.

I love how this turned out.
I got tons of cute pictures of Alice, she was adorable.
We went at sunset, the sky was beautiful!





One more, I think this is such an adorable picture!

October is Our Birthday Month

Happy Birthday to my favorite daughters that were born in October, Wendy on the 7th, Emily on the 8th, and Amy on the 21st...also Alice on the 7th and Sally on the 13th!

I am so thankful to have wonderful daughters who are great people, but more importantly, fantastic mothers.



They are all amazing at so many things, I can't name them all. I am so proud to be their mom!

# 8 Is On the Way!!!

Last week during our semi-annual dinner for the girls while the boys are in the priesthood session, Sophie was sitting next to me. Suddenly she blurts out, "Grandma, my mom is going to have a baby!" I was totally surprised and thrilled. Amy was not quite ready to share the news, but when you tell the kids, it is just a matter of time. We are growing at at least 1 grandchild per year, and loving it! Yea for new babies!

Look At Two of My Cute Grandkids!

Wendy just sent me this picture...are they adorable or what? I can't stand that they are so far away.

Oops, here's some pictures!

When I blogged before, I forgot to put pictures. Here are some of the fun things we have done.

Emily is in Town!

When Emily comes to town, the fun never ends! We have been busy taking advantage of having the cousins together. We went to the Thanksgiving Point Children's Garden. The kids loved the Noah's Ark. Emily had 3 things that she wanted to do while she was here: go to the temple, get her hair cut, and go on a hike. Dianne Robbins, Emily and I went on a hike yesterday up to Mount Aire in Millcreek Canyon. The hike was great, and the scenery was beautiful. DJ, Emily and I all went to Landis Hair Salon for a "Salon Day". Tonight, we went to the temple, it was so nice to have lots of our family together there.

Home Again, Home Again!

days, and then went to pick up DJ in England. I was home for 8 days, and then went to Panama City for 17 days (I'm sure the Lewises were thrilled to get rid of me). Now, I have no trips planned, I'll be staying home for a while.

So, here are a few pictures from the last trip. This is Ruby Jane Lewis at 4 days old. She just keeps getting cuter and cuter!

Wendy and Jesse got a BOB stroller so that she can jog with both kids in tow. We had to stop her from running at 4 days post baby.
It was great to have Emily, Sally and Alice in Panama City for a few days. Sally and Coleman loved playing in the backyard.


This is Grandma's last day...I will miss these cuties.
When I got home, I discovered that Sophie has lost both of her front teeth. I understand she swallowed one of them...I'm glad some of the grandkids are in Utah, I can get my grandma jollies somehow.
