Well, we didn't get the pictures off the camera until this week. Sorry! :( Well, the next few posts should help us catch up on the Easter 2008 update. Some of the pictures are from hunting Easter Eggs & some pictures will be of Easter Egg Decorating. This picture was of the egg decorating at GGs. Of course, we are smart & go to GGs for the messy part! :) Be watching for updates!

Who can say I don't love my GG

Oklahoma Snow, Deadly Tree

Day 13 / Post 12

Well the schedule post didn't work, so we are back to posting one blog a day. I found another neat nature picture of Oklahoma snow going through my hard drive. This one was taken by GG and comes with its own ''Special'' story.

While we were in Oklahoma, we went out to see 3 of GG's brothers. Now being that they all own/work farms this is not a small task. The trip took over 2 hours of just drive time.

The story begins when we left the 3rd brothers house heading back to Great Grandmas. I was in our van with Christi and the boys following GG driving alone in her van. All of a sudden, GG saw this tree on the side of the road and instantly decided that she needed to take this picture!

Now, before we continue this story, let’s cover some important additional information:

• First of all, just like the tree and ground in the photo, the roads are also covered in snow and ice.
• Next, remember that I am from South Texas and I can count on one hand the number of times it has snowed in Houston. So you can imagine my overall snow driving skills.

Anyway, GG hits the breaks, rolls down her window, and sticks the camera outside of the van to take this picture. All of this happening while my snow driving skills, again perfected in South Texas, are sending us sliding straight at her without any control. Luckily we were going up a hill at the time and not traveling fast enough to actually collide. GG snaps this photo, looks over at us now stopped beside her, waves and drives off.

True Story! Hope you also like the photo...

Easter Series, Post #3

Day 67 / Post 41

Easter Series Post #3. So that I can be accused of abusing everyone equally here is a photo of GG supervising the egg count from her position of authority. She is taking her well deserved break considering she purchased, filled, and hid the eggs this am before she began to cook our Easter dinner. Go ahead GG, take 5! But not more that 5 we got things to do.

Here is GG

Looking back into the blog to see what I missed I noticed that we didn’t have a picture of GG up all by her self, so here it is. This is a nice photo taken of her at the college on what probably was some type of Cub Scout function with the boys. Hi GG!

GG and her Grand Sons

Day 41 / Post 26

Here is a shot from Great Grandma’s 85^th party; it is of GG and her four grandkids. My crew proved to be very difficult in the photo category. Believe it or not this is the best face that Cody made in all of the photos with GG. I will get him for this later with a very embarrassing photo. Life is hard!

GG, Can I Sleep in Here?

Day 13 / Post 08

Clay & Cody went over to GG to spend Saturday night. Those of us that know and love GG know of her ability to “store” things in every nook and cranny. Well we all think that she went just a little too far when we saw Cody’s new “Spot”

All fun aside, is it not strange to see where boys find to hide when they are involved in a serious game of hide and go seek.

Cody loved the “best spot” until his brother closed the lid on him. Then the fun went away. So much for brotherly love...
