It's been awhile since I have posted anything here on the Blog. I am combining all the little things that have happened here in the last little while into one blog entry.
Puppies
Amy brought over some of her puppies for a visit the other night. They are pure breed Miniature Dachshunds. These cute puppies were a litter of five. They had fun playing in our backyard with the kids. "Does anyone want to buy a puppy?"

Mother's Day.
DAD's BIRTHDAY
My Dad was here for three weeks in April & May. While he was here we celebrated his birthday. He turned 97 years old on May 7th. He does very well for a man that age. He still gets around well with the use of a cane. His beverage of choice is MILK and sometimes Rootbeer. We had a birthday dinner and party here and invited relatives and some friends. Notice there are no pictures of him blowing out 97 candles on a birthday cake. The fire marshall wouldn't approve. We opted instead to serve blueberry pie and homemade strawberry ice cream (two of his favorites.)
Here are a few pictures from his birthday.

Look out World!
LeeAnn is starting to drive! She got her learner's permit in April and has been driving her mother crazy. Oh, I mean, driving her all over town. She loves to drive and drives her Mom whenever she can. Dave even let her drive his truck, with him of course, up to Payson and back. Seriously, LeeAnn is a good little driver and puts up with alot of "Backseat driver" instructions from her mom.
CHORES
While my Dad was here, John discovered a new, easier way to take out the garbage. Grandpa's wheelchair - "It makes any chore a breeze."
LeeAnn and Bethany
I asked LeeAnn and Bethany to pose for me in front of the rose bushes. The roses were so pretty a month ago. They are actually standing in the neighbors yard so you can see our house in the background.
Our neighbor friends, Shaylin and Alicia relax on the couch with Bethany and LeeAnn.

Fun pictures! I especially like the one with terrified look on Leann's face.
You guys eat the best food!
LeeAnn is driving? Where does the time go?
Somehow using a wheelchair to take out the garbage seems like a lot more work. Maybe more fun though.
Thanks for sharing the pictures! I love John's trash service, and LeeAnn's car pictures...those were funny! Bethany, congrats on your move up and all your accomplishments!
IT looks like you gave GrandpaJ birthday he will love to remember!
