Aren't these 6 kids cute??!!!

You may not have noticed, but I changed the blog picture of my grandkids. This was taken at New Braunfels just a week ago. We go there every Labor Day and have since I was 12. It's changed alot...but then so have I in some areas!

On the left is KATE. She is 4 and is Jenny and Shannon's youngest. What a hoot she is. She recently asked her mom, "mama, is this the Obama guy, the president of the states? He bees on the TV all the time". I agree with her...he bees on there too much! She loves to fish and play in the crime lab at my house and get in the costumes and jewelry. It is always a mess when she's finished playing. She also announced on Palm Sunday that Jesus came to town on a Honkey!! What is that? A white donkey?


Next is CHARLIE. He is 5 and in kindergarten. This is David and Suz's middle child and has the prettiest hair and eyelashes of them all. He loves baseball and wants to play in college like his Pops did. I wish he'd play at Baylor but by the time he gets there, he'd need a scholarship for sure! He can throw and catch really well. He also can hit and practices alot by hitting his brother.
























Charlie is holding his baby sister, CAMRYN. She came into this world a little early, weighing in at a whopping 3 lbs, 9 ozs. She is now 10 months and finally weighs 14 lbs. She is so cute and sweet and when she cries you can hardly hear her! Can't say that for her cousin!

Next is ALLIE. This is Jenny's oldest and she is 8. She loves art and has drawn many princesses and fairies. She's really good. She loves acting and was the "Fairy God Mother" in her second grade play, "Cinderella". She likes to come to our lake and has learned to slalom ski and wakeboard. She and Jen and I were at the dock this summer and were talking about her being in the 3rd grade next year. Jenny remembered that when she was in the 3rd grade that the president got shot. I told Allie that when I was in the 11th grade, the president got shot. She looked at me very seriously and asked, "would that be Abraham Lincoln?" After I ripped her hair out and threw her in the lake, I told her it was Kennedy and that I had also attended Lee Harvey Oswald's funeral. She wasn't impressed. Maybe she would have been if it had been John Wilkes Booth.













Allie is holding KEELY. She is Jaime and Michael's baby. She is 5 months and has the biggest blue eyes and loves her mops and pops. Unlike Camryn, you can definitely hear her cry! She loves to be outside just like me. She can be soothed if you turn on Mickey Mouse. Maybe she'll work at Disney World someday.




Next is JACKSON. He is David and Suz's oldest. He loves all sports but especially loves dirt bike racing. He started this at 4-5 years old and has won several trophies. He wants to be a professional dirt bike racer. I take lots of pictures of him and pray the entire time.




Thanks for indulging me this time to brag. Since it is my blog, I guess I can brag anytime I want to. Next I will be posting some pics of the summer...I refer to it as the Summer of 243! That's how many different people came to the lake. It was lots of fun. The neighbors think we should replace the water in the lake...I think God did that for me just this past week!.
