um, hello, remember me?

I can't believe it has been 2 and a half months. wow! alot has happened. let me see if i can remember it all! i'll go backwards!

Sunday I took pictures of my friends grandson and kaydin. Layton is 1 week older than kaydin. but kaydin is bigger! lol

This outfit was Mark's when he was a baby. His father picked it out for him. Mark's father passed away when he was around 4 years old.

this pictures shows just how sweet kaydin is. he is very laid back and so sweet! give him a few months, years.

over memorial day weekend we went camping. This is baby noah. he has grown. alot. and he now loves those hard cookies that grandma bought for him. his mommy doesn't like them, they are messy. who care what mommy likes. and those cheeks. very kissable. very.



the day before we left for camping we bought this new camper. well not new, it's a year older than our other one, but very nice! read on to find out why we had to get a new one.




Storms blew thru our small town on May 8th, one week before graduation. totalled our beloved camper. bent the axel or whatever you call it. the storm is also responsible for our new roof we will be getting. i have to decide what color it's gonna be. what? who cares.




Markie and two of her friends had trash the prom dress fun. and i got to play photographer! Loads of fun!!!! the dress where old prom dresses, not this years.






Prom. markie was on prom court, but didn't get queen. kaydin still thinks she should of gotten queen.








whoops, this should of been futher up. graduation day. YEAH!!! she did it and we are very proud of her. she should be proud of herself too! she worked hard and endured alot this year.

















just took this. aren't they cute! and boy does he look like his grandpa mark!











oh, and this should of been at the top too. this is what i did this weekend. had fun. just me fun. no kids, no grandkids, just me, a kid and 5 friends. Rona, Cheryl, Janice, Sarah, Marlene and I all got together, rented shadow rest lodge in cape and scrapped from friday night til sunday morning. of course we slept, but we had a blast when we were up! we also did a card swap and i worked on my cards on friday night. it was so much fun just hanging out, scrappin, playing on facebook (they had wireless internet!) and eating. and eating. did i say eating? some of them were on diets, but they ate anyway, lol! we are planning on doing it again in the future. i will have to post pictures of the place. it was absolutely amazing!










































well thanks for catching up with me. it's been awhile. tomorrow markie has surgery to remove her gallbladder. then saturday her graduation party. i will be glad when it's over. lol. party will be fun though and can't wait to see everyone. heck, i may have to have a beer! a beer. as in one. any more and i'd be out like a light!
on a serouis note, i'd like to ask you to keep the families of the oran kids in your prayers. they are living every parents nightmare right now. and my heart breaks for them. every single one. they were just kids being kids.
