Erik's Birthday

Erik's Birthday party we all got together for DQ ice cream cake.

Sunday walk at Manchester

It was a lovely sunny day so after church and lunch we decided to go for a walk. We normally just walk on our street but, Kyle insisted on us going to the park with the dog. It was so nice. Kyle texted Steve so Simon rode his bike down and surprised us. It was so fun!
Later I texted Steve and he and Moira joined us. We then went back to their house so Lilly the dog could play with their dogs. We visited in the sun.  It was so nice to relax. We then came home for my brother Erik to come to dinner..

Mismatch Day

At school for a fun day at school it was Miss match day. So this is how they went to school. Lilly put on a teal skirt later so it clashed more. My favorite was little man's hair half combed nice and half a mess.

Grandpa Brown

I found this picture of my grandpa and Belle.  Oh how I miss him. It has been 2 years since he passed away.  He loved Dr. Pepper he was always carrying around a huge cup full of Dr. Pepper.  He could make this whistle that sounded like a train. My cousins son actually called him grandpa whoo whoo. He loved his 10 children and wife so much. They had 7 girls and 3 boys. My Dad was the oldest boy. He was always worried about his kids. 

He would never go to the beach.  One time when I came for a visit he came with me. We talked and walked along the beach. I didn't realize until later he never went to the beach.

He was from Oklahoma.  He moved to California at age 16 to find work. He made twice the money in California then he could of in Oklahoma.
He was a hard worker after he retired he was still doing cement work on the side. A neighbor moved and left their house. My Grandpa mowed their lawn for 30 years. He worked in the steel mill for 40 years.
He was the hardest worker I know. 

I miss and love you Grandpa!

Gabby 's Photo shop work

Gabby is taking a photography class this Semester.  She is learning photo shop so she decided to give our family picture an overhaul.

Little Man's tooth was pulled

Little Man when he was under 1 years old fell and bumped his tooth. So it was brown and dead. Last year he needed it filled because it was infected. Along with 6 other cavities. He was complaining of tooth pain. SO I took him back to the dentist they decided to pull the tooth so it wouldn't hurt the new tooth up above which they said, it won't be too long before he loses it anyway. So he lost his first tooth before Lilly. He looks so cute toothless.

Yum top Ramen raw

My little sister Chelsea would always eat her top ramen uncooked. My older 2 girls were talking about it. So Belle and Lydia decided to try it and of course they liked it. Aunt Chelsea we miss you.
