BBQ at our House

Tonight we had some friends over to the house for pork loin - that is my Pawpaw specialty.

Everyone liked it.

Hunter and Taylor had fun playing with me.

I liked to watch them play, I can't wait until I am big enough to play with them.

Hunter is really good with the soccer ball- I think he will be able to teach me a thing or two.

Hunter liked to hold me



Taylor is just plane crazy.
She is so much fun and she has lots of questions for everyone.



She wanted to hold me for a minute but didn't for very long.
She was too busy checking everything out.

Gamblin' Grandma

Tonight we went to Mary and Don's house and had dinner. Mrs. and Mr. Sampish, Becky and Steve, my Nana and Oompa and Aunt Dolly were there too.
After dinner my Nana taught me how to play this game called a Slot Machine.
I am not sure what it is all about but she was trying to get me to push all these buttons and then it made all these noises and she got excited.
I hope some day I understand it.

The Animals

Wanted to let you know some of the animals my dad shot while he was in Africa.
Rhinos - NOT he just got to see them in the wild.

Here are all the hunters with all there trophies.
Can you see all the great smiles on their faces.
Looks like they had a great time.
Here is my dad and Oompa with his Gems Buck.
Here is my dad with his Impala.
Here is my dad with his Kudu.
This is World Class Kudu- 58 inch horns- he is going to get a medal for shooting it
and it will be in the record books.
Pretty exciting.
Oh also one day it will be mounted over our fireplace.
This is his Spring Buck.
Do you see his fuzzy tail?
This happens when the animal is dieing and is only open
and fuzzy for about a half hour after it dies and then it goes away.
Here is Dad and Oopma with their Spring Bucks
they shot them the same day with the same gun.
This is a Blue Wildebeest Dad shot.
This is a Wort Hog he shot.
Weird looking tusks huh?

And last but not least his Zebra.
I hope he make me a pair of boots.
Maybe matching with my mom.
He had such a wonderful time in Africa but Mom and I are sure glad to have him back.

Mothers Day

This morning we went to breakfast at La Madeline for Mothers Day.
I gave my mom an early present I slept through the night.
I have not been doing that real recently.
Then we went for a walk and Dad mowed the lawn.
We went to Nana and Oompas for a Mothers Day Dinner.
My cousin Grace was there and she was very excited to see me.
Then Grace wanted to go swimming and
Nana put my feet in the pool while we were watching her.


My outfit got a little wet so Mom went and put on my swim suit and got me back in the pool.
Don't I look cute in my new suit.
Thanks Again Judy.

Today my dad got home from Africa.
We went and picked him up from the airport.
He was very tired but sounds like he a wonderful time.
He shot all kinds of animals.
Mom and I had to keep him up until night time.
Then he and I fell asleep on the couch.
