Program Sunday

Sunday Emma's choir sang at Valley River Center. Kelli, Jill, Byron, Ayden, Dave and I went to watch her.

Here is the group between songs. Are those t-shirts just about the niftiest things around? They made these tie-dyed shirts a few weeks ago and they really turned out cute.

Here Emmy is after the concert. I just couldn't seem to get a good shot and my camera batteries were going dead.

Look at that face. She is thinking, "O.K. Grandma, enough already!"

Costume Up

Lest I forget what the little people looked like on Halloween I am posting a few photos. 

Byron was Woody riding a horse. He loved that horse and Grandad's cowboy hat.

Little Ayden came as a sock monkey. Isn't this the cutest outfit?

Emma was adorable as a cowgirl. I think she looks like Jessie from Toy Story but she said she wasn't.  She was wearing chaps as well and it was so cute.

Of course Lucy was a horse but she was pretty tired from all the trick or treating and would not keep her costume on and would not let me take any photos. So here you have it. She is dressed as a pouting toddler.

Oatmeal with Cows Milk

So Lucy loves oatmeal. I don't mean instant oatmeal or quick cooking oatmeal but the Old Fashioned oatmeal. Every time she is here that is what she orders asks for. I try to mix it up a little bit and get her to eat an egg and toast, a waffle, a pancake, anything else. But nope! She is a girl with a routine and she is sticking to it.

This morning she was eating her oatmeal and said to me, "Gramma, I don't drink soy milk". I said OK Lucy I will give you regular milk. She got very stern with me and said, "Not regular milk, Gramma. I drink cows milk". I told her that regular milk is cows milk but she insists if I call it regular milk that it is not cows milk. So from now on it is cows milk. Little stinker.

Baby Cakes

Little Ayden. Who me? I am being very good Gramma.

Doll face.

Mamma I'll share my car with you, kay?

Bug Hunting

Byron and I took a little walk a while back and this time of year there are plenty of box elder bugs buzzing about. He is fascinated with bugs of all sorts but these were very easy to spot so we spent a lot of time looking down.

Found one.
