We're back.

To all of my faithful followers, sorry it's been so long.  This is a very random collection of pictures. 

Gwen, these next few are for you.  These are the metal boxes/drawers that Harrison drug up from the pasture and made into shelving.  I thought it was rather creative of him.  He did all of his own decorating.

 I love the fact that instead of sports posters, or girls...... his bulletin board has lots of pictures of his little sisters.  He is such a good kid, and a great big brother.



The other side of the room on the other hand.........not so pretty!

 The kids are on spring break..........so we headed to CO to see Troy, to keep our eyes open for houses..... and to tour a school there.  Some awesome friends of ours graciously opened their home to us........even though they weren't there.  They did come home towards the end of our stay.  Both of the girls LOVED this piano!  They banged played it continually, until we were ready to scream......and would run them out. 

This is Iley's morning hair.  Love that one wild piggy tail!


Wren and Sherman were the only ones that braved the hill out back.  After about 2 runs, Sherm decided it was WAY too much work.....especially for us low altitude people.  Wren kept falling down, and their big English bulldog would come and sit on her.  Then she couldn't get up.  She was NOT impressed! LOL


 We thought he might just join them in the hot tub.

 He sat mournfully looking in the patio door every evening.  They have to keep a stick in the sliding glass door because he can open it!  He could look sadder than any dog I've ever seen.


 By the  3rd day, Iley was finally over her altitude sickness, and ready to join in the fun.  She kept telling us her stomach hurt......and "I might gag"........NOT what we wanted to hear!!  She never did "gag" though! Whew!



Trust me.....this girl can fend for herself.

 Back home.........every toy came out.
B

Must tie......Must tie.... Something MUST be tied!!!!!!



 Hey!!!!!!!!!! I wasn't ready!!!  I'm posing here, can't you see??  She thouroughly scolded Iley!





And of course a few pictures of the wee little manny.........but not many, because I was holding him most of the time :)  I may or may not have been accused of "hogging" him.......


 I wonder if Ike ever misses his personal space???

 This little girlie......is in love with this little baby.

Shhhhh.......don't tell the boys.

We dropped Harrison and Sherman off to play volley ball at the school with a bunch of kids.....then the girls and I went to see our main squeeze.  And is he ever squeezy!!  He just keeps getting cuter!  What are we gonna do?  I'm turning into my mother I'm told!  This Grandma business is dangerous!  But man is it fun :)




Look who's starting to like the baby a little more each time we see him........or maybe it's a "if you can't lick em, join em"  or He aint going anywhere......might as well make the best of it....Kinda thing.

 







 The baby, and his sweet little momma......who is never in the pictures cause she only gets him from all his adoring fans, if she's feeding him.

Baby Love.....N.....More

Waiting for church to start......like two little frogs on a log.  This is actually a candle holder.

 Ashley showed up with these glasses on and a scarf.  For those of you who know him.......that is NOT him.  Ella had given him a hair cut......her first attempt at cutting hair........it really wasn't too bad for a first attempt.  But it was super short on the sides, and longer on the top......he had it sort of gelled, and swept sideways......artsy like........NOT him.  But we had a good laugh out of it :)  and forgot to take a picture of him.......BUT.......we got a picture of several others trying on Ella's glasses.

 Notice....he's got the baby again!



 And of course.....lots of Brentley pics.




 Nana Jo and the Aunties lovin on the little man.....and trying to get him to wake up to eat.

Those little feet!!!!!!!!!!  I could just EAT them!!  They are so soft and sweet!

His sweet wife was behind the camera.....so of course he got snapped :)







 I think he's finally decided he's ready to eat!

 Grandma, and Grandpa Great came by to see him and love on him a little.  This is Troy's mom and dad.  Mine live in Ohio.  They are headed this way before long too.
