happy birthday dannell




 It was a pleasure to celebrate your birthday with you in person.  We don't often get to do this with a first week of school birthday.

Donuts were perfect in morning sunshine.

This whole family is lucky having you devoted to us as you are, and we love you so.

Happy Birthday, Sweetheart and best wishes for a wonderful year ahead.    Love, Val and Jay and Everybody

Happy Seventeen!

We were so happy to spend time with you on your birthday.

All these years you have brought us so much happiness, and we wish you all that happiness and more for the year ahead.

Happy Birthday to the sweetest.   Love, Grandma and Grandpa and Everybody

the last day of august






Everything has that dry, end of August straggle to it, but that's okay.


Onward to September.

Love, Val

 

another monday

They went outside for a while.  I picked up toys all over the yard this evening. Apparently they were moving sand around in the trucks.  The bubble machine was a hit.

 
There they are, all in a row.

Lots of love, Grandma and Grandpa

end of august







 So much love, Grandma and Grandpa

last weekend of august

This crazy critter took over the driver's seat while we were loading groceries.   A few miles up the road she tried to come up front from the backseat by sneaking between the windows and the passenger seat and got herself real wedged in there.  

We had to pull over and Jay had to pull her out backwards by the butt.   Then after that I could feel her little toes trying to come up front again after she failed the first time.

Jeez.









The sun finally came out today, but we kept busy in the rain.

Love, Grandma

our possum


There he is, beady eyes and all.   Maybe it is a girl.  We don't know!

I love these possum sightings, check the camera every morning.



Ahhh!    Maybe more videos tonight!

Love, Val
