A Roll of Hay

A local real estate company used this roll of hay to make a spider at Holloween...I thought it was so cute and creative.....AND THEN..... At Thanksgiving they made the same roll of hay into a turkey, which was even cuter. So I am excited to see what they do with it for Christmas. I'll keep you posted.

Night launch at Nasa

This past Friday was the last scheduled night launch at the Kennedy Space Center, I wish we could have been there to see it, but this is the next best thing.

This post if for the Grandchildren-Rockets Yeah!!

Just a group of pictures for our sweet little grandchildren to look at, they all enjoy launching rockets and Astronauts (thanks to Poppy). It was late in the day so we just took some pictures from the outside. Maybe later we will get the chance to go and spend the day and take better pictures.

Here's something to think about.

This is a hotel Poppy and I spent the night at this past week and we thought it might be a fun place to plan a family vacation. Just an idea. It had a fun little playground for the younger kids.

This is a really great kids pool with lots of slides that all the kid would enjoy.

This is the View and the Hotel Room

The hotel is older and a little run down, but it has such a beautiful view and fun things to do that it kinda makes up for the not so perfect rooms.

Dennis and I went riding on Jekyll Island yesterday, we had a good time and we biked about 20 miles. This picture was taken close to the end. We saw some beautiful sites, we have decided we need to do some of the touristy things on our days off. The park is beautiful and it was a fantastic day, great sunshine and cool temperatures.

I took this picture because in person the grass looked layered in yellows, golds, greens and browns.

I believe this is the Jekyll Island Inn, and Dennis enjoying some Trail Mix!

Visit with the Arizona Tinney's

Dennis Jr, Cori, Cody and Tanner came to visit and my Dennis and I had a blast. Dennis and Cori had a few trials with lost luggage and a few other things, I hope they enjoyed themselves half as much as we did.

Rocket launch in Orangeburg South Carolina

This is Poppy's rocket store. Cody loved launching the rockets.
A big two thumps up.
Tanner did not enjoy the rocket launch, he cried at the loud noises.

We fed the geese and went swimming in the pool.

Cody loved the feeding the geese. This goose was the Queen and she honked soooo loud.
Everytime she honked Cody would laugh and laugh. He went home and told everyone the goose went HONKKKKKKKKKK
When you ask Cody his favorite part of the trip, it was swimming in Poppy's pool. I think it was because he learned to float on his back and dive under the water. He was so proud.
Tanner enjoyed jumping into the pool over and over again.

All the Boys got a hair cut.

Tanner loved getting his hair cut. Cody not so much, but look at those beautiful eyes.

We made it to SeaWorld before hurricane Faye hit.

Tanner thought the Penguin was really cool. Dennis and Cori are still smiling here, it was before they became stuck at the top of the Log ride for about 15-20 minutes in the pouring rain.
Cody and Tanner enjoyed the Merri-go-round.

Cody, very intent playing the drums.

We had a great time.We loved watching Cody watching the performances, he would be so intent and then.....
he would laugh so hard when they would jump out of the water. IT WAS GREAT!!!!
Tanner had a great time too, what bright eyes and precious smile.
What a good looking group. They must be having a great time.


Hurricane Faye tried to ruin the rest of the trip but we found a Mall with putt putt golf and a place called Monkey Joes. It was a place that had lots of huge blow up slides, and we all had a blast!!!!!!!!!!! But the house sure is quite without them.

Lots to share!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bear with me on my posts, it's been a busy couple of weeks and lots to share. Please read to the bottom as I have made more than one post. Stephanie Hunt, I promise to respond to my tag soon thanks for being patient. Love Ya. Also, Leah Jacobs, gave me another makeover and it is beautiful. More of that to come.

A Dream come true!!!!!!

My oldest son Dale and his wife Amy were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple along with their 2 daughters Ashlee and Kynlee on July 15, it was an awesome experience. Our hearts were so full and I know that prayers of joy were being spoken on both sides of the veil.

This is Andrew Olson the Missionary who taught Amy the discussions he will always be very special to them. Some family and friend pictures we took outside the Temple.


Dale and Ashlee were sick and vomiting 2 days before going to the Temple, but they recovered the next day.

Getting to the Temple was very interesting Dale's younger brother, Dennis, was suppose to be there and woke up during the night (4 AM) vomiting, and was still vomiting violently when we left for the Temple his son was also sick. When we went outside to leave we noticed 2 of our cars had been broken into (Dennis's and Leah's my other daughter haha) So we knew it was going to be a glorious day because Satan was sure trying to ruin it. He did not win because it was beautiful and we all survived.
