Thank Heavens for TV ~ Walt Disney is my Idol

Spent a few days visiting with my beloved g.kids...I had to be mean a couple of times which made me sad, but all in all we ended up alive (Vivi rolled down the stairs at one point but was ok - I was still shaking for about an hour afterward) Swords, Light Sabers, and Whips were all out (movie to follow later, don't have time this am)I believed we watched 347 Disney movies and I was grateful for them!....Anyway here are a few pics of my lovies.
First is Will - He is very helpful about being in charge. You need a leader? He's your man. Where's Will????? (He loved this game and we took several pics)

Vivi and I waiting for the school bus. It was late, I tried to put her on another bus (not hers) and then had to run back down the street to the right bus, while yelling at the boys (Will/Preston) to get their rear ends into the house. 7:38A ......but Viv sure looked cute. Love the uniform. She is my cheerful one most of the time.

Here is Preston - on top of the roof of the play station (that is the neighbor's roof in the background). He is an outdoor kind of kid and enjoyed playing outside in the mornings when it was a little cooler - he played out there in afternoons too, but I didn't join him - I couldn't take it. The kids sure love their back yard.
Ian - he was liking Preston's Star Wars blanket VERY much - Ian and Cady both tried to snatch it whenever they could get their hands on it. Cute little ones. Ian had fun with the big boys.

I thought I posted a different pic of Cady, but she is alot like her big brother and very photogenic so most any picture of her will work. She had fun with her sibs and Preston and was happy to play anytime. Song felt bad that the kids weren't more excited to see her - I was beside myself with excitement but was too tired to show it.
I called my mother today and Song, I'm saying it to you, too - You will both be wearing those crowns in Heaven..... You know why.

Party Party Party

Actual birthday (today) A boy and his soccor ball~
I tried to put as many pics of everyone as I could at the party. I think I got just about all, but apologize if I forgot anyone. Jayme put together another fabulous party and I think everyone had fun. I'm grateful for being able to celebrate with my Dad for his 80th and with Preston for his 5th. Missed Clark and his family and a special Happy Birthday to Brodie who also turns 5
today. 5 is the first birthday I remember so I know how special it is!! I hope I know who I am when I turn 80... Wish you couldve been here with us. Enjoy the pics and again, I apologize if I left anyone out. Carey, I only showed your back and you're celebrating a Sept birthday too - I'll make it up to you. Jenny, you too! Love you all.

Lots of Sept birthdays. YUM
You had to see this part. Men's minds working hard...... this did work.....
Party whistles and hats....
David's party whistle....

Birthday celebrating! Lots of help in blowing out the candles...

Newest family member Sawyer James... so cute! (and Mom, Laura)

Feed bag for a hungry boy... I believe he had chips inside but not sure. Adam had a b-day
on the 15th...
Gift opening... I missed a lot of this
Cady was doing a "Marilyn Monroe" standing on the vent and letting it blow up her pants and hair. She had a blast.
Will and Brian, having some pool chat.
Craig, Viv and Jeanie...this was a one-handed portrait, I almost got us all in.

Artwork by Corey~~~
Party Masters : Clown and his Shoe - I mean Lou.

SSweet gift from Kim, not only did we get to use her house, she sent Preston a fun present. I think Jayme, Sue, and Mom wanted the outfit themselves... If he gets clothes, these are the kind he loves.
Jayme did a great job decorating. Danielle and Rachel helped - It looked
tres festive! This is NOT at the party - I stuck this in, because I had 4 pictures all of Song's back - and she has such a pretty face I just threw this in. Her little "twinner" boy is pretty cute too.

Fun just keeps happening.
Vivi loves the horns and blowers. She was having a wonderful time too.
Rachel and Danielle - hanging with the cool people (notice no one else in pic) Just kidding.
Ian Johns: "whistle blower"
Sarah, doing the face painting with Preston and Will - it turned into Tattoo Town.

You all know which team I route for !!! Go Salt Lake Community College!
This face is fabulous... Jr Clownshoe

Scars and a unibrow - Ow!

La Di Dah

Here is my "loaner" dog, Z - enjoying some fun in the sun.........she is so sweet.

This is a really good little deli/lunch place in the Aves. Years ago, we used to do
our laundry at the cleaners/laundromat next door. It is called La Cuchina on 2nd Ave
and approx 0-P St. very nice - food excellent. Reminds me a bit of Caputo's, only
better. Anyway I just feel "right" when I go there. I guess it's just because of the
location - I love the aves. Hey Amy has left her old "living quarters" and is moving forward with life... she liked
this pic of herself and wanted me to post it. God Bless.
Roger and Dad having a visit. They enjoyed their time together and their
lunch. The report on Preston, was that he was the best boy ever on their
lunch excursion. Good Job!
Having a nap in the pool..... what else??
