Kristy's Triathalon

I just had to post a couple of pictures of Kristy's triathalon. Carl and I were able to go watch her. We're so proud of her. To think she just had a baby a few short months ago. Way to go Kristy!



Isaac's first day of kindergarten

I was able to go to Malad to walk Isaac to school on his first day of kindergarten. He looked so cute and was sooo excited. Yes, he's just in kindergarten, though he looks like he should be starting the second grade! Ethan started preschool this morning. Stacie sent a note to his teacher informing her that he's a "talker". I'll post pictures of him when I get some!

When Isaac got home from school, Eric and Stacie presented him with a brand new bike! His old one is way to small for him. However, it has hand brakes and he's decided he would wait until he's 6 to ride it!
Would someone please donate some toys to these poor "underprivledged" kids!

And of course, who can resist a picture of this little doll!

FAMILY REUNION 2008

I've enjoyed everyones family reunion pictures so much I decided to share a few of my own! It was so much fun. I wish we could do this every year! Thanks Tracy and Ralph for hosting this. You guys did a great job!!



The Brunsons breakfast the first morning was fabulous!
Stacy, Tammy, and Tracy figuring it all out!
Sarah and Riggley
Ike and Aspen after a "brisk" night!
Who can resist this cute picture of the three babies....not to mention John!

Wondering what everyone's looking at? Gloria was sitting at a picnic table and a couple of us went and suddenly sat at the other end of the table and "catapulted" her into the air. Don't try this at home!!

""Baseball. It is the one constant through all the years. It's part of our past.
It reminds us of all that once was good."
James Earl Jones from Field of Dreams


"Field of Dreams"
I can see Ted Williams or Carl Yastremski roaming left field.
For me this park takes me back the 1967. The Sox won the pennant.
There is a saying...As baseball goes, so goes the nation.
How do you have a bad day in the #1 ballpark in America.
I love baseball.
Red Sox Nation??? I think it is Red Sox Galaxy! ! !

Buy me some peanuts and cracker jacks....oh yeah and
some New England Chowder too ! !
Look closely at what the vendor is carrying.


If this truly is heaven...is that Ern in the Red Sox sweatshirt??


I am not sure, but is that a Darth Vader helmet on John's head. Even Darth Vader had parents who loved him. Where did I go wrong???

I love 3 things about this picture. 1st I am with John. 2nd I am wearing a RED SOX sweatshirt in Yankee stadium. AND most importantly 3rd....they are tearing this dump down.


John and I had the chance to see the final resting place of the last REAL commisioner of Baseball. Bart Giamatti is the the guy who banned Pete Rose (the jerk) from baseball

Take one look at this picture and you know how blessed Debbie and I are. I miss all of you. Come see us again SOON!


While we were at the beach on Alki, I got this picture of a couple of cute "babes" catching some rays.
Debbie and I really like our ward here in Renton. I think we have found a house to buy. It's just around the corner from the house we are in now. Kristi really likes this one. It's a clean one owner/fixer upper. Let me know what you think! ! !

When you get like Grandma and Grandpa, you realize nothing is more important than family. Because the Lord gives you gifts like these, who love you more than you can ever love them.




We just finished the best visit ever. Sorry for the rest of you, but it doesn't get better than this!

Grandma and her girls. Which one of the 3 is most precious? Tough one to answer!

The season has started. America's team is coming and it ain't the *@#% Yankees. Get ready for the "World Champion Boston Red Sox." Go Red Sox Nation

Hi everyone! I guess you're all surprised to see a new post on my blog! Eric was right. Now that I have put posts on Kristy's blog, I know how to do it. However, you can see all of our good pictures on Kristy and Eric's blogs. Of course, any pictures worth seeing are of my 4, yes four, beautiful grandchildren. This weekend Carl and I are going to Salt Lake to see our 2 new babies get blessed. I will come home and actually put some pictures on our blog! Stay tuned.....
