Little paint on the nose. She never realized it. So fun. We talked and I could watch her play and we talked about her picture. One was hands, one was water with Ariel, a heart that mommy helped her paint and she filled it in. She loves it when her daddy paints with her because he is an artist. A good one too.

Finger painting with Nama on the Web cam. See my computer on my desk and Mattie Sue in the computer. Only way to have grandkids so far away.

This is what I had to walk into to get the tomatoes in the picture below. I was in and out so fast I'm not sure anyone could have seen me picking them.

Tomato Watch. Look back at the first basket, second basket and now the thrid and there are plenty more in there. I just didn't want to walk in any further then I had too.

I took this picture and it is so cool how it turned out. I didn't even try. Think I'll win an award? Jessica actually took the picture and I took a picture of the picture.

Ryan's room with new clock and shelves that Chesley made and Rod painted. Click on the picture and it gets bigger.

This is Ryan wrapped in the "Miracle Blanket" Grandma's out there, it's a must. He's just as happy as can be. Although he's pretty happy most of the time. Unless Jessica eats something like onions. I think he likes M&M most. That is when he's the happiest.

Jessica gave her 10" ponytail to "Lock's of Love" and they sent her a card. Of course her mom found it on her table at home and took a picture. Click on the picture and you see the message at the bottom. That's my girl.

Still at it. Pecking away all day. They are an endangered species. Real endangered at 17818 Salado Draw. They don't know how in danger they really are.

This is the tree that has some friends living in it. I think they are teenagers because they were playing in the tree one afternoon and they are supposed to be sleeping. They are nocturnal teenagers and don't know any better. Wonder if they know my woodpecker friend.

Randy and Ruby Raccoon living in the tree next door. Right next to the peach tree and the tomato cage. They can't get into the tomato cage but they took my one and only peach.

Future tomatoes of America

The one and only peach on the peach tree.

Two weeks later, the crop grew!!

This is Mattie Sue and Malyn, my grandchildren in CA. They are working on putting Malyn in the crib and Mattie Sue out of the crib and into a twin bed. So cute and they seem happy to be right where they are. How about just letting them sleep together. O yes and there is bentin and Nose and Mickie Mouse in the picture too. Bentin is the blanket (Mattie Sue's word for bedtime blanket). Nose is the dog.

This is Julie and Robert Flippo. Robert is Chesley's grandson. They were married in Las Vegas June 23. We were there for the beautiful celebration. Congrats Flippo's.

Here's the little guy or girl. We haven't figured out which gender it is. ( Now for you bloggers out there, this picture was supposed to be under the next picture, how do I do that) . This is Cindy's pool. As soon as we figure out what sex it is maybe they will name it.

F2 Group. A day and night at the Lake. Played 99, Laughed, stayed up to late, bought a pelican for Cindy's pool, ate at Blue Bonnet and at the lake house, Thanks Cheryl and Charlie.

No Nama, please, make the cameras stop. I don't want to smile right now.

This is actually from May 1. Our 25th Anni. The girls surprised us with our personal table setting with cards and flowers and a big surprise in the end. They had paid for the whole dinner. At Ruth's Chris of all things. What a fun surprise. We were going there to celebrate and when we got there the table looked just like this. They knew we were going and did this right before we got here. Thanks girls, you are the best. A night we'll never forget.

This is Ryan's new tummy time mat. Actually if he moves a little, he'll fall off the ottoman. Guess I'll put it on the floor next time. See nama's don't know everything.

This is my penni machine. It makes great sandwiches. I should have taken a picture with the lid up. Next week.

Jenny and Chesley and I went to Le Peeps for breakfast for Father's Day on Sunday. Debbie and Diane and Chet came over Sat. and they went to Lone Horn. Sorry I didn't get a picture. Good weekend for good young Dad.

New mommy (Jessica) and baby Ryan.

Four generations picture. Can you tell I might know how to put pictures in the blog I just don't know how to put them in the order I want them in and I don't know how to delete the ones I put in. But at least I'm learning. Thanks for being patient.

Four Generations picture---------oop's three generations picture.

GO SPURS GO! Sorry Ohio family and friends. I cheered for Ohio State but not the Cav's.

Jenny my mom and Jessica. Always great fun when grandma is here.

My mom and I having breakfast on the screened in porch. Maddie is watching us or listening to my mom read.

Some of our beautiful flowers in our back yard.

These are the first of the tomatoes that Chesley has been growing. These are the mini ones. They sure look good. The other ones should be coming out soon.

This is a little woodpecker that better find a new home soon or I may find one for him. He pecks on my window about two hours a day.

This is Maddie. She pretty much makes her home outdoors in the back yard. She sees anything that moves and she is mezmirized for hours. Doesn't matter what the temp. is.

This is Mitzi taking a snooze on our bed. She had made this her perment home since we have all the little grandchildren and the surround sound TV.
