Mallorie & Kolby & Lucy napping

This is going to be one spoiled puppy!

Kora doesn't look very happy, but it's a cute picture of Miss Storie!

Mallorie, Kolby & Trevor

Mallorie & Kolby have a new puppy! Her name is Lucy (her father's name was Elvis) She is a tea cup toy poodle! They're in love with her~

Mr. Trevor just turned 4! I can't believe it~ Christtina can't seem to get him to wear anything other than his superman pj's~

I miss this little stinker~

This lucky little Lucy is gonna be loved so much!

Our Idaho Trip

Mallorie looks taller than Kolby, but it's the sandals~ They're about the same height now~

While we were in Idaho, I pulled Mallorie's tooth~ It had been loose for awhile, but she was scared to have it pulled out. Kolby hasn't lost any teeth yet--I told them to smile and show off their teeth--and this is the pose I got!




I love Kolby's look! He is Mr. Personality--sorta ornery, but very loveable!

Mallorie had her dance recital while we were there--She did great! I regret not getting a picture of her in her other outfit~


Mallorie & Kolby both play soccer, I was looking forward to seeing Mallorie play, because I guess, she's really aggressive, which I find hard to believe. The team they were supposed to play didn't show up, so they won, by default!

We got to see Kolby play soccer, but they lost their game. Fortunately at that age they really don't care!

Mr. Muscles showing them off--before church!

Our newest creative effort!

These are so fun to make--We bought cheap "wife-beater" undershirts--and tons of different laces--to decorate them ~ I bought some expensive lace, I want to get a little better quality of t-shirts for, also~ These were a trial run! Misha and I decided even getting plain ladies t-shirts, and adding lace to match skirts, etc. would be so easy to do. All my little grand daughters will be getting one~
We're in Idaho Falls with Misha & family. The shopping is great here compared to Colorado--Misha finds this funny, since I'm from AZ where the shopping is wonderful--They do have a ton of craft & fabric stores here==I guess there isn't much else to do in this place with the bad weather, but crafty things!
Yesterday we went to the talent show, at Kolby & Mallorie's school. They both played the piano, and did wonderfully! Saturday will be Mallorie's dance recital==
Myrle has gone to farm stores, and bought all the plants for our garden in Colorado~He's planning a big one--which slows down our travel plans considerably.
It's cold here due to the darn wind~It seems to always blow! We've seen people wearing shorts, so I guess some think this is warm weather, but my blood must be thin--I'm missing Arizona~

Happy Mother's Day

My beautiful flowers from Kevin & Helen--My favorite yellow! Just wish I was in AZ so I could enjoy them--But at least Christtina gets to enjoy them for me!

Thank you so much for all the gifts & calls! I miss everyone so much==! Love you all~ You make being a mother wonderful~

This is one of the books Taryn got me for Mother's Day= We're all Elvis lovers! Especially after reading the book about Lucy, his one true love~ Now Kodi just needs to read it, so she'll be a believer also!

Colorado Lotto

I wanted to put a cute little logo on here, but couldn't figure it out~ When we went to see my Dad's wrecked car, there was an old Colorado Lotto ticket in the car--I took it--and checked the numbers--he had 4 of the 6 numbers you need to win! I was so excited--wasn't sure how much you got for 4 numbers~ As it turned out we only got 49.00~ But wouldn't that have made a wonderful story? We could have been on the news (FOX of course) had it been the million dollar ticket!
My Dad was so lucky, he was always winning drawings/ lottery/etc. Nothing huge, but still!
Here is it Mother's Day and I'm still thinking about my Dad~ Happy Mother's Day to all my blogging friends~ I've always loved being a mom, it's all I ever wanted to be when I grew up!

Uncle Jerry & my dad Perry

My Dad, and his triple brother, Jerry~ I've had the hardest time calling and talking to my uncle Jerry~ I finally did, and talked for almost 30 minutes--It was great talking to him--He's always lived in Texas, and has a strong accent, and calls you "darlin"==Ha! I've always been so proud of my father, and his being a triplet! It's got to be really tough for Jerry having his brothers die before him---
We're planning a trip to ID for Mallorie's dance recital~ Not sure when we'll head out--Keep telling them, when it stops snowing up there~
We are going to Houston in June for a memorial for Uncle Derry's wife, Stella. Uncle Derry died about 40 years ago-- Anyway, we're looking forward to seeing everyone again in Houston. Then I decided that since we were already in Houston, we might as well go on up to NC and see Taryn. Then Taryn & I decided that since we're in NC, we might as well go up to PA and visit our Amish friends, and shop of course! ha! Meanwhile, we're hoping Misha & the twins join us in NC for our trip to PA, since she's never been~
I feel like I need to get on the road again---Myrle is in Heaven of course, working on our property, irrigating, and killing prairie dogs==and I've been bored to death! I did go out to dinner with two old friends from High School the other night--which was fun--Crazy how time goes by--It was great to catch up on everyone I haven't thought about in years, and wouldn't recognize if I saw them~
