Playing at the park

 On my guy's birthday, we all went to the park so the boys could play.  They had been hanging out at the hotel while I had my People to People interviews...

 They played...

 and played...

 

Emerson didn't let his cast stop him from doing anything!

 William was really wanting to join the big boys...

 The saddle was a hit...

 

Benjamin rode it with his Uncle Gabe...

 There were two saddles, so the boys could ride at the same time...

 

or they could ride a cow together with Uncle Gabe/Dad...

 my big boys...

 Emerson was checking out the saddle...

 Emerson, you are just too cute!!!

 They found the western town..and decided to hang out in the windows...

 

William finally convinced his mama to let him ride the cow...

 sweet feet of little William!

 He wasn't too sure about this saddle...

 so his mama let him sit in the window...

 He loved it!  ...  and I love this picture :)

 Papa went to join his little men in jail...

 Donnie brought William over to join the jail crew...

 Emerson told them he wanted to come visit...

 So all 3 of my little guys were behind bars...

 Once they escaped, they took off running....

 

with their Papa close behind...

William...is definitely ready to be up and running with the big boys!

Red Cast

Emerson got his real cast, his hard cast, his red cast... 

  When I asked him about it, he held it up and told me it was an "L"...(because it's in the shape of an 'L')...then he held up his finger and told me that was "a little l."  He knows his letters!  This past weekend, we were with our little men...I had People to People interviews all weekend...and it was my guy's birthday...

Emerson's cast did not slow him down in the slightest... not at all...

as you can see from the climbing wall at the park!

When we were talking about him breaking his arm, I asked him if he cried.

"No, not at all!" he said.

His daddy disputed that statement!

Google Earth

 Last time we were at Lindsey's, Donnie was showing the 'big boys' something on Google Earth...or I think that's what it was. 

They were very interested in whatever it was he was showing them...and I was very interested in how adorable they were standing there listening! 

We were together these past two days... I'm looking forward to getting the photos off my camera and on to the computer.   I had People to People interviews all weekend...plus, my guy had a birthday!  He turned 59 yesterday!  There was no blog....because I had no keyboard on my computer until Friday afternoon! 

Happy Birthday to my guy...my best friend!

Happy Birthday, Thalia!

Thalia...
What a special one she is! My only granddaughter, and such a beautiful one - both inside and out... I love you, Thalia...and hope you have a wonderful birthday...and a blessed year!

October 16th

 

It's October 16th...my parents' anniversary.  

We don't have my dad anymore, but I always remember their anniversary.

 My dad loved these boys...my mom still does!  (Along with sweet Lindsey who never met her grandfather :((  )

 Always, always, always ... one of my most favorite photos of my dad and Joshua!

Happy Anniversary, Mom!

I love you...and I bet you can see this better after your successful eye surgery!
