Alex's New Shelves

Grandpa Dan helped Mike build shelves for Alex's room. They didn't like the noise at Home Depot.

While the boys waited for the paint to dry they played a little darts.

Maybe if you get a littler taller?

Maybe if your point your arm and really focus?

He got it!!

Check out that face...like he knew it would work all along.

Time to put the shelves up. The little ones have to help.

Then Alex saw the drill so he took a picture of it.

That's my boy.  He is pretty good at taking his own picture already.  It took me almost 30 years to master this.

Alex helping Grandpa making extra holes in the wall.

Thanks for the great shelves!

Welcome Home Grandma Laura

 The kids waited so patiently for her plane to land.

We think we see her coming!

 WELCOME HOME Hugs from both of them!!

In the parking lot...what are they looking at?

The tower, planes taxing, landing, taking off, construction work, cars, buses driving by...

There goes a plane!

We could have stayed in this spot all day if I let them.

So Grandma and Grandpa took us to Deer Valley Airport to see more planes!

There goes another one, bye!

Happy Birthday? What? Who?

Tia Julie sent a gift home for Alex for his birthday. He was so excited!

It was from Alex's Nino's and Tia Julie and Tio "Whirly Whirly" David.

Tia was being so thoughtful she even wrapped a gift for Monique.

Monique was excited to get a baby bottle that looks just like the toys we left at her house! She was happy it was her birthday too! :)

Cool firetruck pj's!

Thanks Nina and Nino, and Tia Julie and Tio David! What a nice surprise to have a birthday in June! I like this...spread it out and celebrate all year long :)

Missing Grandma Laura Swimming

Another hot day swimming at Grandma Laura's house.

Grandma is still out-of-town, but we missed her.

The water was still a little cold, but she stayed cool.

Hi Grandma! Love you

Breakfast After Church

After church today we went to have breakfast at the Deer Valley Airport!

"Holy Cow! There goes another plane" Alex tells Tia Julie

Outside waiting to see more planes go by.

there one goes

they look like they are having fun! It was a little hot out there.

Are they saluting or trying to keep the sun out of their face?

Playing with Grandpa Dan

What a surprise, Alex wanted to play baseball!!

And Monique wanted to be lifted up into the air.

Grandpa asking "what aren't you going to lift me?"

Cheese, smile everyone!
