Dan's Big Move!

Dan and Kayla hit the road on Saturday by 8:30 am. He arrived in Breckinridge, Colorado on Sunday evening! I am glad I was here in Grand Junction and didn't have to see him drive away.
Here is his new backyard. Spectacular... wouldn't you say? He says he is "living his dream". I wish him all the luck in the world.
He had his things shipped out and they will arrive Tuesday am. Then he plans a trip to Grand Junction to stay with me for a few days at Tegan and Kelley's house.

How hard will it be to get on a plane Sunday morning.

I will be leaving them...
her,
and now him too!
Dave, we may need a vacation home here in Colorado!!

Big News from home!

The big news from home is this...

Sarah Rose lost her FIRST TOOTH! Beckie had to pull over on the highway to assist Sarah, who's tooth started bleeding in the car!
I heard the lovely toothfairy left her $5 dollars for that beauty!! You look so cute Sarah!!

Beckie and the girls headed out to Clear Lake, Indiana to spend some time with Bridget at their lake house!! What fun for Cayden ~ getting to spend the weekend with his favorite girls! *Pictures compliment of Beckie cell phone*
Sarah gives Cayden and Molly a ride~ I know they must be having a blast together!

Mya saying "Good Morning"~ with Cayden announcing some news at the end!! And Layla working on crawling!!

Sunshine on a rainy day!

Wednesday started off sunny and beautiful~

Someone was happy to be going for a walk around the neighborhood! Clapping~
The day took a turn and a storm came in and we just snuggled and played inside on the floor all afternoon! A kiss here...
She thinks I am crazy... just like Sarah Rose does!!
When Mommy and Daddy got home we got ready to go to Tegan's softball game. REALLY? We didn't believe him when he called and said the rain moved through and they were going to play. It was his last game of the season and if they won, next season they would get to play for FREE! Dramma came over and we took off for the field. Just look at the sky.. and the empty stands!

We see they are losing by about 7 runs in the 2nd inning when we arrive. Dramma says, "No worries, this is how Tegan's team rolls. They will come from behind and win, you'll see!"

Sure enough that is just what they did~

Tegan came up to bat and his girls were right there to cheer him on!
Go Papa!
Did he disappoint them?
NO WAY~
A big homer for Layla Lynn!
The crowd goes CRAZY!


Dramma, Layla and Mommy watch the game together!
Layla is such a good girl!

Tegan's team wins by 3 runs! Woo Hoo... Free Season coming up!

Layla is excited to see her Papa!
Congrats Tegan! It was fun to watch him play again! Lesjak Planning, of course is the big sponsor of the team!
Check out the rainbow behind Tegan!
Awesome~

Great Day in Grand Junction!

Love like an ocean...

I've got love like an ocean in my soul.
I am learning her every like.
I am learning her every worry.
I am learning her every joy.
She is not complicated...
She is easy to please.
She is easily entertained.
She knows I am her Meme.
Who loves her so much.
She loves me back.
Being far from each other won't matter. I am leaving my mark on her. She will remember me by the things I have taught her! She might even say ME ME before I go. She has the mmmmm part down!

Yesterday, on Tegan's birthday, we went to Kelley's Mom's house to visit and see Great Grandma Milly and Great Grandpa Skip! Deanna's parents are just so sweet! It was so nice to see them again!

Layla loves to see her Dramma Deanna!

Great Grandpa Skip was delighted to see Layla!
She studied him for a bit then felt comfortable in his gentle hands!

Great Grandma Milly had nothing but smiles for her sweet Layla Lynn!
They travel about 2 hours to come into town for doctors appointments. They leave up on the mountain in a beautiful area. I have seen only pictures of their home but I would love to visit one day!

Kelley was anxious to get Tegan home to open his birthday present from her and Laylabug!
Tegan opens Layla's card first...
Isn't this the sweetest picture?
A kiss for his little princess!
Kelley's card was a hoot... watch the magic~ arms down.
arms up!
Mommy and Layla watch to see if Papa likes his gift...
Tegan's face says YES, he does!
So glad to be here to share in all this birthday fun! Our next birthday is for this one...
Mya Brynn will be one on August 17th... I miss her and can't wait to travel to Venedocia when I get home for a sleepover with Cayden and Mya! Kisses to all my gems...Sarah, Molly, Cayden and Mya~ Meme will see you soon!

Dave... I am missing you too~
