Hello everyone!

Yeah yeah I know.  I don’t want any lectures…the honest truth is, I haven’t felt like adding anything to my blog.  Kind of went into a slump of ideas.  Nothing new, just nothing basically.  I took some adorable pics of who else????? grandkids when I went up North a few weeks ago.  It was still warm outside.  Owen and Lauren were total models for me.  Lauren was hilarious…..and holy cow, I got some cute shots…..

It was hard to get anything out of Ryan.  He lets me take a picture or 2 then….when he is thinks its enough…well then it is enough.  It makes every picture  I get of Ryan that much more precious.

So bare with me….or don’t…but here we go!!!!!!!!!!!

Is this the cutest pics of the little rascals helping their mom bake cookies?  They ate globs of cookie dough…it was so good!  When ever they help Camille bake…they put their hats on.  It is great!

I took a ton of pics.  Normally 1 out of 10 turn out the way I like them and then I don’t have a problem putting them in frames… but not this time.  I need a bigger wall…….lol

I took some pics of the 3 that live here in town but…it was such a hot day….and I need some do-overs….aren’t you glad!

After a LOT of posing………she was done and off she skipped to go  chase some chickens!

YESTERDAY was my DIL’s BD  Sorry this is so late putting up Camille.  Thanks so much for being our sweet daughter.  Thank you for giving us such beautiful grandies….We sure love you!

Camille told me that she got a bicycle for her birthday.  Of course the night before her birthday Mike was talking…the kids were right there and he was saying, “geesh it sure is too bad that we didn’t get you anything for your birthday” and RYAN piped up and said “yeah we did dad, we got mom a bicycle”!  Ya gotta love it.  Never…Never…Never think you can pull one over on Ryan!

Then night before last Lauren asked her mom, (sorry I don’t remember the exact words) “mommy can you ask daddy to come and lay down with me” (this is at bedtime, Mike sometimes lays down with the kids) and then she said: “and if he says no, just ask him again, and if he says no again, just ask him again”.  I can just see her saying it as a matter of fact and shrugging her shoulders…. lol…OK would YOU SAY NO TO THAT?  just sayin……

Hope you are all having a wonderful week….I know I am…..
