El Paso

Grandma with the two newest babies. Lanie and Will.
Lanie was such a good sleeper. It is amazing what babies can sleep through with kids all over the house.
Three little princesses and a little boy who thinks he is as big as they are. He almost made it on the stairs. "Put down the camera and save the child!" Ha ha! He wasn't in any danger.

Trip to El Paso May 2010

Lanie receiving a bath. She loves the bathroom sink and loves water.
Kylie, Sadie, Ady and Will playing in the pool in the back yard. It was a fun cool down on a hot day in Texas.
We stopped at Salmon Ruins in New Mexico. Ady enjoyed running around and seeing the sites. These ruins are awesome.
This was the old storage cellar at the ruins. I really like it and think it could be my new home. As you can see it is well preserved.
A cute shot of Ady and Will in my car on the way to Texas.

New Crochet projects.

I have been working on a few more items. The top is a blessing dress for little Lanie Cain. I used for a pattern a dress that was made for her mother, many years ago. I just need to get the slip made for it.
This is another afghan that I made, I will give it to one of my friends in the ward. I liked this one as you make it like a granny square but just keep going until it is the right size.

New Car



This is my new Car!!!!! It is a Nissan Altima. I really like it and enjoy driving it. I liked my previous Nissan Versa, but this is a lot nicer and more comfortable for me to drive. I find it hard sometimes to fit in cars because I am so short and round!

Crocheting Afghans

These are a few of the Afghans that I have been making lately. This one is for Nicole Witte Nagelschmidt.
This one is for Tovi's new baby. Lanie Vaea Cain.
This rainbow one I gave to a coworker at the hospital for her new baby girl which should be born shortly. I am working on a few more.

April Fool's

Well, what a funny April Fool's Joke!!!! Somebody must have spent all night setting this one up. You would hardly think it was Spring.
I was remembering some of the fun April Fool's Days from my past. When we were kids someone would always trade the salt for the sugar before breakfast, Koolaid was made without sugar. Grandma Henry would come over very early in the morning and with a ball of yarn tie up the cupboard doors, wrap the yarn around the furniture and around door knobs, it was a fun maze and my parents would never let us cut the yarn. It was Grandma Millet's birthday and when we were visiting her there were always lots of tricks pulled. One time my dad made a beautiful birthday cake for her out of a block of wood. He even decorated it so awesomely. She actually started crying when she couldn't cut it with her knife. Then he brought out the real cake. It is fun when you actually fall for the joke. I like to laugh at myself. At work we would list all kinds of weird patients on the board and get a good laugh at the looks on the next shift nurses and doctors faces. One time in Rexburg one of the nurses tied a string around a rocking chair in an empty room and out through the window. He would make the chair rock when people walked by. What a fun tradition and day!!!!!
