GRANPA AND HUNTER

These pictures are from our special day with grandson Hunter. I hope to figure out how to post in order from my phone but so far no luck. Hope you enjoy them any way we did.

MY DAD

My dad turned 85 in February. He was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer this past year. He lives in Washington and I in Minnesota which makes it difficult. You want to be close but can't . My two sisters are doing a great job of helping him when he will let them. The pictures are of one surgery and radiation treatments. They don't post in order on my phone. My prayer is he will be spared too much pain or suffering
I love you daddy

NOAH WILL START DAYCARE

I will be giving up babysitting the grand kids everyday. It is just to much for me. I decided to try one day a week so on Mondays I will have Noah and Eleanor ( Ellie) I have other things I need to do and it seems at the end of the week I am to tired to do anything. It will be sad for me but I am looking forward to getting my house in order and begin gardening again

A SPECIAL DAY WITH HUNTER (age 3)

WE PICKED UP HUNTER AT HIS HOUSE ON A SATURDAY MORNING

HE WAS A VERY EXCITED LITTLE BOY.
"IT IS MY SPECIAL DAY GRAMMY"

BYE MOM

FIRST STOP THE PLAY PARK

"THE PARK WITH THE BLUE SLIDES GRAMMY"

HE LOVES THESE SLIDES AND WANTS GRAMMY TO GO TOO!

GRANDPA LIKE TO GET PICTURES WITH HIS PHONE

HE KEEPS GRAMMY YOUNG

THIS MADE HIM DIZZY

"I CAN DO IT ALL BY MYSELF GRAMMY"

WHAT A FUN TIME AT THE PLAYPARK AND "I GET TO SPEND THE NIGHT RIGHT GRAMMY?"

WE have 8 grandchildren now 4 live in Washington State and 4 live in Minnesota here near us. Hunter is the oldest here in Minnsota and hasnt had much time with us in our new house so we invited him for a special day. I was so amazed at how happy he was to spend time with his grandparents(us). We did lots of fun things but these are the only pictures on my camera so I am going to check my phone and grampas phone to see if I can find more. He kept saying "this is my special day".

NOAH IS CRAWLING

Noah started crawling this week . I can't believe how fast they pick it up. He will be a lot more work now so I told my son I would have to quit. I suggested one day a week if they wanted me to. I just won't be able to keep up with him. I have this week and then two more

SNOW IS MELTING

Hard to believe but we are having Spring here in Minnesota

FIRST BIRTHDAY

Harper Rose has her first birthday our 6th grandchild

her brother Hunter was excited for the party to begin

food and treats were a big hit

Let the present opening begin

Hunter and Ellie were a big help to Harper

Maybe it should have been a Dora party?

Hunter helped with reading the cards

It took all three kids to open this one

What is it Harper?

I love my new Dora oven Grammy

I had more pictures from my phone but have not figured out how to get them on my blog. I loaded them into windows 7 and am still trying to figure out how to get them here. My camera is easy...load the card into the computer and a few clicks and we are here. I need a class...Oh well it was a special day can't believe we have only two babies left the grandkids are getting so big. Alyssa 7 Maddie 4 Hunter 3 Carter 3 Ellie 2 Harper 1 Noah 7 months Luke 3 months. 4 girls and 4 boys what a great mix. We will all be together for 4th of July what a great time it will be.
