Sweeties

Jesse and Gracie were giving each other loves and they were both smiling. It was so cute. Suzanne keeps reminding them though that there is no imprinting on your cousin.

Gracie loves to listen to her dad's music.

Paul's Big 60

Today Paul turned 60!!! Happy Birthday Honey. You are still my wonderful sweetheart.

We had a nice dinner for him and all four of his grandkids were here. He wanted a picture with all of them so here it is. Grandpa does love his grandkids.

Chet's song

This is a song that Chet wrote and sang when a close friend of his died suddenly. He performed it here when his Aunt Pat passed away.

Halloween cuties

These are pics of the little halloween cuties. Jesse is a turtle, Gracie a lady bug and the Krysta and Kylee cheerleaders.

Daddy and Daughter

Little Gracie was konked out on her daddy's chest. It was so cute I had to take a picture.

Moon over Mt. Hood

This is a shot of the full moon coming up by Mt. Hood. It was such a big bright moon that night. Beautiful!!!

Little Cousins

Jesse loves little Gracie. He keeps trying to either eat her toes or kiss her on the head. He does get a little jealous though when grandma is holding Gracie.

Four Generations

This is Seth, Paul, Jesse and Naomi. Four generations.

Jesse's First Birthday

Jesse turned one year old today. I can't hardly believe that it has been a whole year. His party was at his Grandpa and Grandma Pitman's home. We had a yummy dinner and then Jesse's frog cake that his mom made for him. It was really cute. She spent many hours making and decorating it. Jesse has never had sweets or ice cream before today. It didn't take him long to figure out that it was pretty tasty. After a bath to find him underneath all that frosting, he got to open his gifts. (Actually, Mom got to do most of the opening because he wasn't really interested in opening them. Just playing with them after.) He got lots of fun toys and videos and books and lots of cute new clothes.

Pretty in Pink

Ian bought this little pink suit for Gracie and she is so cute in it.

Kylee's Birthday

We had a picnic at Hathaway Park for Kylee's 7th Birthday. The weather turned out nice after a kind of chilly morning. The little ones were having a good time playing around. Paul took his wagon he bought for the grandkids. As you can see, Jesse was having a very good time pushing it around. We were not pulling, just guiding while he pushed. He pushed it clear across the park and back. Kylee really enjoyed her gifts and was especially excited with some texters that Matt and Suzanne gave her. I think Krysta was just as excited as Kylee because there were two and they could text each other.

Jesse and the turtle

We went to the Clark County Fair with Seth Tonya and Jesse. Jesse liked the big turtle in the reptile exibit. The kids could pet them which Jesse did but he would liked to have rode it.

My Beautiful Grandkids

Chet, Kate, Krysta and Kylee came today. Bob, Lloyd and Naomi were here for dinner also. We had a nice visit. I got to take some pics of the girls and Gracie. The one of Jesse was taken in Idaho. He was having his lunch.

A day to Remember

Paul and Larry took Larry's new quad up Wolverine. Paul really had a wonderful day and enjoyed the company and the scenery. Now he is looking at quads and thinking that he wants one.

Fun times in Idaho

We had such a good time last week in Idaho. Thanks Julie, Wes and Cory for letting us all crash with you again. It was fun having Seth, Tonya and Jesse and Ian there with us. Friday we went to West Yellowstone to the Playmill Theater and saw "Hello Dolly". It was really good. Jesse loved the music and dancing. He was really getting into it bouncing up and down on my lap to the music.

The reunion on Saturday was fun too. It was nice to get to visit with everyone. Happy 60th anniversary Mom and Dad! We love you.

Paul really enjoyed the day up fourwheeling with Larry in Wolverine. He said it was so beautiful up there and they had so much fun.

Proud Grandmas

Wes took this picture of Julie and me with Jaden and Jesse. It was unplanned but boys both had on the same outfit for the reunion.

Grndma's little princess

Gracie is getting really smiley now and is so cute.

Look at Me

What a grin. He enjoys life.

Like father like son. Jesse loves music and I know his dad will teach him to play the guitar.

Made in the USA

We had a nice 4th of July. We had a ward breakfast at Fallen Leaf Park in the morning then went to the rodeo. The rodeo queen was a pretty girl who has cystic fibrosis. Her horse was given to her by the Make a Wish Foundation. Part of the ticket price that day was donated to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. We then had a BBQ on Saturday. It was a fun, busy weekend.
