HAPPY BIRTHDAY RYANN

Tomorrow Ryann will celebrate her 31st birthday. I hope you have a wonderful day and evening Ryann. We will take good care of your babies. I always prayed for the person my children would marry from the time they were very young. For the first 15 years of Ryann's life I did not know who she was, but I was praying for her. If I could of hand chosen a wife for Matt it would have been Ryann. She loves her family and what more could we ask for. She is also a fabulous wife to Matt and mommy to Dylann and Marshall. Knowing that Matt is happy makes this Mom and Dad very happy. I have a few pictures that I know have been posted, but they are of Ryann with the people she loves most. Her family......

The family enjoying summer vacation last June.

Where else, but the Outer Banks.

This year they will enjoy this beach twice.

In June with her Dad's family and in September with our family.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RYANN!!!!!

UNCONTROLLABLE DESIRE

After our community lost seven beautiful children to a house fire on Tuesday evening I have had an uncontrollable desire to hug and love my grand babies. I have such a hard time trying to wrap my mind around what that family is going through. I thank God for His continual care that He has given our little ones. Nana and Pappy love these little ones more than we can say. We often spend much time just talking about them, laughing about things they say and do. Just a few pics to remind us of the blessings the Lord has place in our life.

Little Sydney with a bow on her head. What a present she is. Our fancy little Tayler Our two little sweeties enjoying their new chairs with blankets and pillows. Our adorable little Dylann. She and Tayler are both fancy little girls. Not to say Sydney isn't And Thank you God for the blessing of this sweet little guy.

A hug for you, and you, and you, and you.

We love you Tayler, Sydney, Dylann and Marshall

BUILDING BLOCKS AND STUFF

Pappy, Dylann and Marshall had a lot of fun today building blocks along with giving high 5's. Pappy and Dylann would build towers and Marshall would knock them down. Nana kept busy taking pictures. They had so much fun as you will see just by looking at the pictures.

Marshall wanted Pappy to play a game with him
Pretty Dee before her hair was done.

Adding a little fun

They are really hoping Marshall won't knock it down again

A FASHION SHOW

Tayler and Sydney recently put on a fashion show for Nana and Pappy. What a treat. They had their toy room which includes a bin of dress up clothes dumped on the floor along with another bin full of hats, pocket books, and jewlery. What a mess. We did clean it up before mommy got home. They were so cute as they used the CD player for music and the long hallway as a runway. What a show they put on for Nana and Pappy. There are a number of pictures so I will not comment on each picture because you will get the idea.

This picture has nothing to do with the fashion show, but I just loved it.

I just hope mommy does not see it. They are sitting on the coffee table and had water in the living room, along with a treat. We were very careful not to leave a mess in that room.
Sydney - this is Tayler's Halloween outfit.

Tayler in her shades.

Here comes Sydney

doing a little dance

Tayler in her halloween outfit.

Not many of their dress up clothes fit her any more.

She is finally growing. Along with growing she is losing a lot of her first teeth.

She has lost seven teeth and only has two new teeth in. She has no teeth on the top front.

Tayler does a little dance too.

Tayler - I guess I commented more than I planned.

OUR SILLY SYD

We often refer to Sydney as Silly Syd. She can be such a silly little girl. We spent Thursday with her. We played around in the early morning after Tayler went to school and then it was time for Sydney to go to speech. After that I needed to run over the mountain to WalMart to pick up some medication. Before going to WalMart we decide to eat at our favorite Chinese Buffet. It's hard to believe that Sydney also enjoys going there. There are a many things she really enjoys and she even eats free. We picked up Tayler from school, but I forgot to get pictures of Tayler so next Thursday she will be getting many pictures taken of her. Hopefully she will be in the mood for picture taking. So here's Sydney.

Only these little girls are able to stand between these posts.
I noticed that Sydney looks like she is really getting taller.

Silly Syd

She may be silly, but she is such a cutie.

Sliced oranges from the buffet.

She loves to put them in her mouth and pretend they are her teeth.

Someone tried to finish Nana's iced tea.

NOW DYLANN

I decided to try to download a few pictures and see if my computer worked. Well it did so here are a few pictures that I took of Dylann and wanted to post the other day. They are just of few of her playing and just being silly. She is a fun little girl and we love spending time with her.

Looks like she is saying OH NO to me.
In this picture she looks like she is thinking about what she can get into.

A happy little girl.

The last picture she had both arms up.

She must have been in the process of doing that in this picture.

MARSHALL ONLY

I have tried many times to download pictures of all the kids and for some reason my computer shuts off. I did get to down load these two pictures of Marshall . I will share these now and keep trying to figure out the whats going on.

Marshall enjoying an ice pop that Mommy and Dylann made.


Pappy really liked Marshall haircut and wished his looked like that.
