Celebrating Birthdays!!

This was in FEBRUARY ... and it was about 5 p.m. ... and yes they are in the hot tub ... and having a ball!! We were celebrating Birthdays at David and Jen's and here are the 'boys' enjoying the warm water. (Tanner, McKay, Talmage, Dallin and Carter)

The girls were waiting their turn ... in the family room ... where there is lots of room for the kids to 'do their thing'. Mike and Jodi and boys were up for the weekend so it was fun to be able to get together.

The adults gathering and chatting upstiars, while the kids are in the hot tub!!

Grandma (Ruthie) planned a huge BINGO game for the grandkids ... where they earned LOTS of treats (notice the basket on the counter). They all semed to have a great time!!

Owen's Blessing Day

Sunday February 7, 2010. Alisa, Ryan and Owen, before we left for church, in his handsome blessing outfit. (I realized that Owen was blessed on the same day as his Aunt Jodi, who was born on Christmas day ... 39 years ago!!! Just a little trivia!)

Daddy (Ryan) holding his son.

Grandma and Grandpa, after church, with Owen. (We had already changed our clothes)

Sunday evening ... Ryan and Alisa giving Owen a bath (and keeping him modest with a towel!) We loved getting to be apart of their routines with their son. They are wonderful parents!!

We love you guys!!

Our trip to Lacey, WA (February 2010)

Dennis and I were able to fly to Seattle, WA to meet Owen and be with Ryan and Alisa. Here we are at the coast of Washington ... a beautiful beach ... but a chilly day, with the new family! After this we went to a little seaside shanty and had yummy clam chowder and fish.

This is a view out of the window of our hotel ... and this is their 'ugly' time of the year??? (They need to see Utah!!) The rain can get 'old', but it sure is green!!!

Here's the new family ... in their apartment. This was taken Sat. morning (see out the window ...the sun does shine ... a little!!) We went for a ride out to the beach ... which was about 1 1/2 hours away, but beautiful and fun to do. We had lunch at a little seaside shanty ... yummy clam chowder and fish!!

Here's the star attraction ... Owen Scott ... smiling for the camera.
