One day early



One day early!

Tomorrow is Miss Ellie's birthday!
Happy Birthday Ellie! Since I couldn't choose which one of these photos I liked best- I decided to use them both.
What a beauty you are! We hope to give you our birthday hugs in person.
Love, Grandpa and Grandma

Grandma Rogers


Today our Grandma Rogers would be 93 years old.
Wow! Some of you would have a hard time remembering her because she has been gone for 23 years. But I promise you that we had some good times at her house. Most of our Dutch Christmas recipes came from Grandma. Her pantry was always full of good things to eat and M&M's were always available for little snackers. No one could fry an egg as good as Mom! She loved you all very much.
Her legacy to us - the cabin, mousie sandwiches and undershirts.

Sunny Days


I hope that wherever you live you are enjoying a little bit of sunshine.
For the last week we have been blessed with warm and sunny days.
Saturday Kade and Zach joined us for a hike in Pioneer Park and a root beer float at the Social Hall.
Sunday we walked to all our meetings just because it was so warm and lovely.
I've enjoyed reading my library books out on the back porch in the sunshine.
We've been eating lunch out back too.
Aahhhh! I love the sunshine!

How could I resist?


When Jon called the other day to ask if I would come watch the kids while he and Jolynn celebrated their anniversary - how could I resist?
Just look at these cute little faces. Who would pass up the chance to spend time playing dinosaurs with Max, or baking cookies with Alyssa and Hannah? Trav and I had planned to stay up late and watch a Star Wars movie - but it didn't happen this time. And Brianna was my all-night entertainment. This Grandma had a fun time.

Aunt Koi



This is Aunt Koi. Today would be her birthday.

She was a fun sister, I miss having her around.

Barbara and I were looking at old pictures yesterday and she said she thought this was a nice picture of Koi.

Happy Birthday Grandma Reeder!



Found this picture of Grandma Reeder as a little one.

Too many candles to count but we sure love her and hope she has a happy day.

Happy Birthday Zach! You are a tricky boy!
You can climb walls like Spiderman. We are excited to see what new tricks you come up with now that you are 3.

Happy Birthday Brianna!

Grandpa couldn't resist shooting this photo of Brianna in all her holiday finery.
Isn't she beautiful. We love you Brianna.
Hope you had a happy birthday.
