3D PICTURES



This is the best picture that we got of the baby! Its kind of hard to tell exactly
where he is in the picture! I outlined his face and then circled where his eye is!
They say he looks like Bart Simpson with the big lip and small chin! But I think he
is adorable and can't wait for him to be here!!

Our Grandpa
One of the best memories of grandpa was the same as Wads. He would take us to piano in the blue cordova with white leather seats. Although it would take us honestly about 30-35 to get to Orangville to piano I loved it when he was able to take us, he would always make sure there was a treat for us either before or after. No wonder we are all the way were are about snacks huh!!
I also loved going just talking to Grandpa. He was always genuinally concerned about how we were doing and what our families were up to. He very rarely forgot a birthday, or holiday. I too looked forward to birthday cards from him. He accomplished much in his lifetime ,and as you all know was an extremly smart man, but yet he was so humble about it. I am so gratful to be able to have had such a wonderful Grandfather .

Grandpa

Grandpa was so easy to talk to because there wasn't a whole lot he didn't know everything about. He could talk to anyone about anything.  He was extremely witty.  He used to save airplane magazines for Kevin and went out of his way to have treats and a picnic table set up for my kids when we visited.  I looked forward to not only my birthday but also my kids birthdays.  He never forgot!  The envelopes were always addressed in perfect block lettering and the envelope was completely sealed shut with tape (perfectly placed along the flap of the envelope).  

I remember when he came to visit when we were young.  We got excused from school and had a fun time up the canyon.  I never remember Grandpa being pessimistic or ornery.  He was always smiling and telling us how good it was to see us.  

Of all of Grandpa's greatest accomplishments I am so grateful to him for a wonderful Dad who I know has inherited some of his greatest attributes.  I love thinking how Grandpa must be so happy reconnecting with friends and family that have passed on, and being free from the gravity of this life.  

Memory of Grandpa

I remember Grandpa taking us to piano also, but after piano was over he always had a treat for us. He would go down to food ranch and but a little candy bar for us. I also remember him always bringing us popcicles, he still did this when I was older and moved away. I would go home and find about 5 bags of popcicles and a few jars of pickles that he would bring over...YUM! Those are good times to remember.

Memories of Grandpa...

I thought it might be nice if we all wrote a memory or two about Grandpa Don. Use a post and not a comment so that we can all see them right on the home page.

My memory of Grandpa is when he would come pick us up in his baby blue Cordoba and take us to piano. I could hardly see out the windows in the back seat. I also remember always volunteering to take his dinner over because we almost always would get to stay and play Go Fish, or Old Maid, and the best part...Swiss cake rolls!!!

Best Makeup Ever!

I have been trying for years, especially since moving out here, to find a foundation that will not melt off my face and that looks natural.  Autumn told me about this awesome skin care/make-up product that I had seen infomercials for.  I have gotten burned before ordering things off the TV. I finally came to the conclusion that if it sounds to good to be true, it probably is.  But, since Aut had such success with it I decided to try it.  I love it!  I have the starter kit right now, but you can add to it as you want to.  It is actually good for your skin, and it is waterproof!  No more melting in the humidity!  If you want to know a little more about it check out it out.  It's called Bare Minerals.

Dear Ry

Ry-
I have a long explanation as to why there is no picture of you on this blog!  Seems as though no one really knows how to run their scanners or their scanners are broken.  Nat's scanner was broken, and so I had asked Mom and Dad to send me a picture.  After I had begged for a picture of you to scan into my computer (at the time I had no scanner) I finally bought a scanner.  Then try as I might, I could not get the picture to scan into the computer.  I was in the process of sending the picture to Adri to see if she could get it to work.  So if you have any pictures you could email me instead of scan into the computer that will work!  I also need your email address so that I can put you onto this sight (then you will be able to post messages and leave comments!).  Yeah!  I am so excited you are going to blog with us.  That stinkin' message on your phone got me good.
