Tagged

I have been tagged by Amber and I am supposed to tell you 6 little known facts about me. Since I am just pretty boring, this is going to be long and painful! Here goes:

  1. I kissed my first boy when I was in 5th grade, his name was Alex Ayala, he was my first love!
  2. I used to hitch hike to the beach with my friends before we could drive! Was it safer then?
  3. I love to go to Aneheim Stadium and watch the Angels play.
  4. Being a mom has been the best thing I have ever done in my life!
  5. I love to sit back and watch my own children and the way they parent.
  6. I have cried to get out of getting a speeding ticket. Shame on me!

Grandma's Thought


In the springtime, even grandma's can't wait to go outside and play in the dirt!!
Derek's first year playing ball. This was his turn to play catcher and the coach kept telling him to stand up, but Derek knows the correct position for a catcher to be in and that is where he stayed! He looks so tiny and cute! It is so fun for me to go to the kids' games, it bring back memories of all the many, many, MANY, games I sat through with my own kids. There is nothing like sitting in the bleachers watching little league; it wouldn't be summer without it!!
Melanie, Megan and I went up to Amber's house in Brigham City and spent 3 days scrapbooking, talking non-stop, sleeping little, soothing crying babies and bored kids, eating a lot, and generally just having a blast! (Amber is the one taking the picture) Michele was going to be gone for several weekends in a row and decided to sit this one out. We missed her and hopefully she will be at the next get together, it isn't the same without her! This picture is the 1, 2, 3 swing game and the babies loved it every time we played it!

Chicken Hunter

The neighbors were given some live chickens as a practical joke and one of them fly over the fence into our yard. I couldn't get it to go home, and I was tired of it pooping all over the patio so Megan tried to catch it to throw it back over the fence. Well, she just ended up chasing it all over until it finally flew into a tree. I was laughing so hard that I didn't get very good pictures. Finally, I just went to the Halls and asked for help in getting their chicken back home. They sent their son over and between the two of us we trapped it, he caught it, and back home it went. Do you think they gave it to the practical jokers or had it for dinner? Humm?

Grandma's New Toy!!!

Grandma's new toy! I aways thought only men had "toys" but Wynn got me this scooter for my birthday and I love it!!! I ride it everywhere I can, weather and carry space providing. Who would of thought - Grandma is a biker babe!
