LUNCH WITH KIDS FROM LOGAN

On my way home from Spending a few days with some friends in SLC I decided to meet up with our three kids from Logan and have lunch with them at the famous Maddox's Family Restaurant. Of course Kayson was having a great time. He is so fun to be with and watching him smile and laugh makes it all worth it. I have to say also that Jessica is a beautiful mom. She has become what I knew she would be from the time she was a little girl. Not only is she pretty but a great mother. She must have learned that from her own mom. Jason has a little thing going on with hair on his chin that I teased him about ....He assures me that its for alittle while, anyways (I just hope not to long) Even Jason looks so happy .....campus wildlife is something to smile about I guess. I loved seeing him with his sisters. Its getting him home for a visit that we're having a tough time doing....he works all the time and studies very hard. I'm proud of him.
You just have to love Jenna's smile. She is so pretty and happy. You never know what makes Jenna tick she is so fun to be with and we couldn't be more proud of her either. She has this bubbly personality that just makes you want to hug her. She is so fun She and Kayson have a thing going on. They really do enjoy each other. All that babysitting for Jessica has bonded them together for life I think.

The highlight of lunch, had to be our walk back to the car, watching Kayson Run. He is ready to be walking and wants so badly to just run as fast as he can go. He laughs and smiles the whole time. Jessica thinks he is going to love being outside this summer. Bryan can't wait for him to find his walking legs either.....I'm afraid that once he is able to walk on his own Jessica may never see the two of them because they'll always be off hiking somewhere.




Now what more could a grandpa ask for then to have his grandson sitting on his lap listening to a good book about baby animals. I rarely get this opportunity to have a quiet minute with him so this picture is extra special for me. Kayson is really listening and enjoys books.


Here we are all together having a great time. Tammi, we sure have some great looking kids don't' we? We're going to need to do that again soon. Its too bad we didn't have Jordan, Jayme and Tammi there as well. I guess its time for a family picture soon. Thanks for the fun lunch kids I really enjoyed it. It was a highlight of my trip!

When Sister's Get together there's nothing but Fun and Smiles......not to mention Kisses

Spring Break for the college kids was this past week and we had everyone home at one time or another. Girls are always having fun and after I got to see some of their pictures decided to post a few. they are always having a good time with each other and frankly I think they miss
spending time with each other .....they can be crazy too!





Kayson couldn't get away from all the kisses. His aunts make sure he is loved more than anyone little guy could imagine. I kind of think he likes all the attention he gets when his aunts get together. Jordan and Jenna loving him up! Not even dear old Dad gets this kind of lovin. They just ask for me for either money or car keys. Oh how times have changed. Its fun watching them throw the love around though I have to admit. Kayson enjoys it too. I did take notice as to how they were all trying to teach him to give kisses back .....they can hardly wait for him to give kisses back. For now they settle for smiles and hugs which he freely gives.

A Cheer leading Roadtrip with five girls and one Guy and look what happens to the guy!

This picture was taken right before the BIG Cheer Leading Competition Road trip to Boise this past weekend. You can see what happened to Kayson ...........Do I really need to say anything more except next time Kayson Bump pa will come to the rescue.
None of this fruity looking stuff for my grand son.

Five Girls and a Boy all on a roadtrip WOW!
Jordan had a cheer competition in Boise and Jessica and Jenna came up to offer their support to her. I think the highlight was having Kayson come along with them. As you can see they all seem to have a blast . Jason showed up just in time for Dad to buy him dinner while the girls were gone. It has been fun having the kids home but Jenna had to leave yesterday to go back to work. Jason leaves on Tuesday and Jessica will leave on Wed.
Tammi will get her cuddles in and we'll all enjoy laughing at Kayson. He brings so much joy everywhere he goes.
Love you kids!

Relaxing


There's one thing about being a kid, you don't have to worry about taxes, bills or world affairs.


You get to sit back watch a little Lion King and enjoy the day as it comes.


Kayson is sure doing just that. Can you imagine him any more relaxed? He sure enjoyes kicking back and watching his favorite show Lion King.


Its such a cute picture. I had to post it. I love the hat! And for a little guy to wear it all the time ...he must too!


Can you tell that we're just so proud of this little guy? Can hardly wait to see him again.


Our family is so busy with various things mostly fighting colds and flu like symptoms . Trying to stay healthy and up to date with everything that is going on with our kids. Jordan is busy getting ready for Cheer competition this weekend and all the girls will be looking forward to that trip to support her up in Boise. Jayme has figured out the best time to practice the Piano is early in the morning, I on the other hand have discovered the pillow doesn't drown out the noise as well as I would like it too. Spring break is coming up in a few weeks perhaps there will be a few mornings where she will forego the piano and sleep in ( could I be so lucky) Anyways, she does do a great job at it so I shouldn't complain when she practices.


We're all actually doing quite well and anticipate Spring to be here soon or at least we're hoping it does. Donate life month is next month so besure to register to be a donor if your not already one. We need as many donors as we can get. In closing, perhaps Kayson knows something more about the Lion King and the circle of life song than we do.....it wouldn't hurt to sit down and watch it again! Taxes, bills and world affairs will still be there after its over!
