Here is Ryan catching spider. Ryan loves bugs and animals of all kinds! He was following and trying to “hold” a
spider. Aiden wanted to kill it, but
Ryan wouldn’t let him. Ryan also wants
to hold bees… I have told him that we
can’t hold bees because they will sting you.
He still tries to catch them… J
McKenzie and Elizabeth having fun on the EZ roller!
Elizabeth is in the dress that her mommy and her aunties
wore! She looks just like her mom here…only
a little bit cuter! J
The girls and I made stepping stones with shells that we
found at Birch Bay and some pretty marble stones. Lots of fun!
We are going to do another batch pretty soon…I have lots more cement to
use up before it rains!
We went to Home Depot to get a bag of cement (and a bucket
to mix it in!). Then we went to Birch
Bay and found some pretty rocks and shells to add to them. A final stop at the Dollar Tree to get some
pretty colored glass marbles and we were set!
A couple days later, we finally had the time to make them. They turned out pretty cute!
Cousins!! McKenzie (11
yrs) Derek (10 yrs) and Alexandra (13
yrs)
We went over to Lesley and Tom’s house to have a little
birthday party for Derek. Derek and his
dad are supposed to be moving to Hawaii next month, so it was the last birthday
party we will have for him. Hawaii is a
bit far for me to travel to to go visit!
I love this photo of Aiden painting! After we went to Birch Bay to get some
shells, we came home but didn’t have time to do stepping stones. So, I dug out the paint and McKenzie and
Aiden (and Ryan after he woke up from his nap) painted. They painted a couple of rocks, a few pavers,
the grass, and the boys painted themselves!
So much fun!! My grass is still
blue even after I have mowed it a couple of times! The boys, however, are not blue anymore… J
I took the photos
from this day and made a digital book from PrinterPix. I just got it in the mail yesterday and I
LOVE IT!!! They did such an awesome job
on it. Very good quality. I will be going back again and making more!
Ryan did not want to be left out of any of the fun his
brother and Auntie Mac were having!
Aiden helped him paint himself until he got the hang of it, then he was
good to go!
After they were really good and blue, Aiden said, “Look
Grandma! I am Blue Iron Man!!” Ryan piped up and said, “Blue Iron Man.” Yes, boys…you really look like a blue Iron
Man! J
This is McKenzie’s favorite picture right now. I love it too! Ryan sure does love his “Mac”.
Since blogger is being a stinker and not letting me type, I
am going to call it a night! I am having
to type everything in office and copy and paste it here. Makes for a long, long, long, long…….. J
Tomorrow we are off to a soccer tourney in Redmond for McKenzie!
