So whose counting....

Having been with someone for 38 years (43 if you count dating which I do) is my dream come true. I fell in love with Vergene Gardner the spring of our sophmore year 1967! It was the greatest accomplishment of my life along with the birth of our children, their weddings and the birth of our grandchildren!! I love him more and more every day so when eternity comes the love will continue to grow. Thank you Verg for being my support, husband, father of my children (no Tif you were not adopted!) soulmate and eternal companion!!!
Happy Anniversary, Honey!!!!
(eat your heart out, Kay)!!!!!!

C.J. turns a quarter of a century .....

Yup, the Cheej is 25!! My, how time flies with or without the fun! We had a BBQ with the guest of honor doin' the cookin' (something wrong with this picture?)! The fam came over for the par-taay which included: Tif and crew, SueEllen and Chris, Aubruy and kids, Andrew and his fam. The chillin's in the pool pic are Cambry, Myleea, Kaely and Lauren. We had a ball but as usual missed those of our family who couldn't be here. Who would have thunk' it that the baby who hung from the table in his babyseat would be going to Med school!!??
We love you, C.J. !!!!!!!

Ber Rabbit......

For those who know our Kipp, this situation is a SUPERDOG!!! He was laying on the chair by the bay-windows as he usually does when waiting for Verg to come home. Suddenly he whinned and flew off the chair moving over by his water dish. I got up to see what the fuss was about and here came a very courageous jackrabbit (Go Mesa High) over to our lawn! Kipp did not move a muscle while Jack ( no pun intended, Rex) had his way on our lawn!!! Kipp continued to keep the SWAT position and finally Jack left to better eating grounds, around here I have no idea where!!

This leaves our lil' ones....

Brynlee and Wyatt!!!! The joys of watching these two is indescribable!!!! They are constantly moving and developing their own personalilities!!! Wyatt loves life and is very focused when he has his mind set!! He loves doing anything with dad and brother and is accompanying them on hunt scouting and hunts themselves!!! He moves ninty miles an hour and can make Mimi's heart melt!!!!!!!!!!
Brynlee has personality plus!! With her walking now, no territory is undiscoverable!! She can entertain a room with her so-grownup antics and she can also melt Mimi's heart with her wit and smile. She will definitely be one who knows exactly what she wants and her and Wyatt will be a blessing and joy to watch as will our other six grandchildren.
FYI~~~be on the lookout for the Elite Eight, coming to a theatre near you!!!!!!

Doyle on the move....

This is our four-wheelin', fun-lovin', throw me in the pool Doyle! He loves the outdoors and four-wheeling is his love. He has a passion for any thing fast and he can run with the best of 'em!! He also loves helping his dad with Brian's hunting dogs, feeding, watering, cleaning kennels and he is very focused as he helps!!! Doyle is so good at wanting to help anyone and will be ready when called upon!
Way to go, Bubba D!!!

Cody swingin..........

Our next athlete is our first grandson, Cody!! Cody loves to play all sports and works very hard at practice and gives 100% whatever position he is given. He to is a great team player and also is becoming a pianist in his own right. To add to the loves in his life is hunting and fishing especially with his dad and mom!!! Love watching this one excel!!
Way to go, Codmyster!!!!

Sydney~another dancer in the family....

The dance craze continues with our Sydney!!! She LOVES to dance and is a show-stopper just like her mom was at that age (matter of fact, she still is)!! Syd is so cunnin, she loves her costumes and works very hard at practice!! It will be so fun to watch her become a great dancer as will her cousin. Who knows maybe Mimi will get her wish, to watch a Broadway show featuring her granddaughters on Broadway!!
Way to go, Syddiddy!!!!
