Making Memories


Grandpa makes eggs benedict...

a cut above the rest.

Ryan tries to pick up Bryce.

Think he'll pass the test?

Up, up, up ol' Brycie goes...

(hard work, being king)...

harder still to keep your crown.

Dude, let's do this thing!

Night falls, and the Laker game

holds the gang in thrall.

Lakers win! (Mom's Swedish pancakes

sorta beat 'em all.)

Time to go..."real life" awaits...

but we're always sad...

to bid farewell to such a pair...

the perfect mom and dad.

To the family: Sorry I didn't get more pictures, most of you aren't even included here, but I was having so much fun I forgot to take my camera out and missed most of the action. Love you all, though, and we will be getting family photos taken at the beach that include EVERY one of you...(whether you like it or not)!

    You have the ability to take your party, and turn it into a party for your readers! Complete with poetry, no less. You have a gift, dear friend.

    I loved the family pictures. My husband always enjoys doing the breakfast thing on Saturdays when we have the children here. It's become a tradition.
    Families are forever.
    Blessings to you! LeAnn

    It really was fun. You did a good job putting together the pictures you DID take. Along with the poem it was altogether a great post.

    Love all of this. Wish you lived closer so I could come eat some leftovers.

    Take a look at my blog. fullymutated.blogspot.com. Got a new look etc and the lady fixed the comment thing.

    What fun you all had! Although I don't think it was very nice to celebrate the Sun's loss. :-)

    I also loved your birthday post about your body. My birthday is next week. Oh, how I know just how you feel!! Although I would still like to turn in the one I have for a new one. :-)
