Happy Birthday Gramma Ginny!!!

Today we surprised Gramma Ginny with a little get together at Grandma Shirley's house. Uncle Cory and Aunt Sandy were able to join us as well as Rachael and baby E. Grandma made a wonderful meal and it was such a great day.

Here is mom holding the beautiful frame and photo that Cory made for her birthday.

We all stopped in at the neighbors house. Edith has been in Arizona all winter and just came back. She is 91 and doing great.

Here's Edith and Grandma Shirley. "Thelma & Louise"

And here's Aunt Rachael with baby E. You can finally see that baby E in there :-)

Happy Birthday Mom!

Happy Easter!

Power of Prayer

I truly believe in the power of prayer and I ask you all to keep my Uncle Cory and his entire family in your prayers. They are going through a very challenging time right now and we are hoping for good news when he goes to Mayo Clinic on Friday. Please say a prayer that we can find a cure for this.

We love you Uncle Cory and Aunt Sandy and we are all standing right beside you in this fight. All of our love and prayers.

Grandparent's Day

Grandparent's Day

On Thurdsay the 2nd graders had Grandparent's Day. Gramma Ginny, Great Gramma Shirley, Bappa and Grandma Terry all came to Ryan's school for timed math tests and reading and even lunch. Ryan was SO proud!

Puppies & Bowling

Aunt Rachael & Uncle Lon's dog PD had puppies and they brought them over to Gramma Ginny's for us to see. They were so cute!

Even Gramma Ginny got attached.

Here are a couple of pics from Ryan's district bowling tournament. He did great!

What do you think of the form Brad? :-)

California - Candi & Brian's Wedding

California

The entire Bunt family all got to go out to Laguna Beach, California for Candi & Brian's wedding. We had SOOOO much fun!

Here's the bride and groom with the ring bearer (Jacob) and flower girl (Sophia).

Laguna Beach

Brad and Jacob built sand castles. Jacob enjoying the ocean

The kids and Lon loved to run from the waves, Ryan and Ash got drenched.

I think even Mark had a good time - he will never admit it though.

Here we all got caught by a huge wave. Poor Jacob got soaked. Brad made it to a rock so helped him up to wait for the water to go back out.

We all got to ride to the wedding in a Hummer Limo. It was a blast.

I just love this picture!

Rachael, Ashley & Me. We all got our hair and makeup done by a professional make up artist. Even Ashley - doesn't she look beautiful!

Isn't he so handsome!

On Friday we got to spend the entire day at Disneyland.

Here the kids got to meet Minney Mouse and got her autograph.

Here is Lon, Ash, Ryan, Mark and Jacob riding the 50 foot plunge.

Mickey Mouse!

Cruella DeVille - she saw the spotted pig hat Ryan had on and asked if they were black & white spotted pigs.

We met after rehearsal dinner for a batchelorette party for Candi at the Melting Pot for dessert. It was fantastic! We got 3 pots of different chocolate mixtures and got plates of fruit and cakes and brownies, cheesecake etc. to dip in it.

Jacob's first airplane ride. He did pretty good until the very last plane ride home when he found out the plane had a bathroom on it. He went 6 times and if we didn't take him he shouted as loud as he could that "the poop was coming out" and he "had to go now!" He just liked the sound it made when you hit the flush button...

Congratulations Candi & Brian. It was a beautiful wedding and we all had SO much fun! thanks for everything.

Ryan's Birthday Cake(s)

The birthday just keeps continuing!!

Grandma Terry made Ryan this cake for his birthday. He was SO excited about it.

Here it is with the football candles all lit.
Make a wish!

Mommy also made a cake - it's not as good as Grandma's but it has a big Cowboys sign so that helps. Grandma Terry and Bappa left for a cruise so we didn't think she would have time to make a cake this year, so I tried. Thank you Grandma Terry!

Happy 8th Birthday Ryan. So hard to believe that 8 years has gone by.
