Here is a snapshot of a typical morning on the farm! Kaala comes for treats, the sun shines on the beautiful flowers that Makenna, Maeve and Madigan helped to plant and meghnl takes pictures while Papa works!!

Saige and Grammaluvvy sharing a moment. Makenna is trying out the new computer game so isn't in the photo.

k BLOGGER IS CRANKY!

Here are some pics of when the girls were visiting us, and including Mama's Day and Pa's bday.

Here is the family and the new mommy for linkyn (that is what linkyn would like anyway)

She lovvvvvvvvvve Linds.

don't tell mel!!

and here is a collage of pics that we took too!!

here are some pics that I took tonight. Isn't she sweet?

OK ignore the second link cuz it apparently is flawed...(somewhat like myself)
and also ignore the lack of editing but I blame picassa for that because I got rid of all the fuzzy pics (I thought)
but good overview of the festivities at any rate!
love you all
mama

Make sure you check how tall Tanisha is, standing against her very own peach tree. Let's see who grows biggest first!!

Pa and Tanisha are posing behind the peach tree that Tanisha planted today. She did all of the work herself (almost) Andy is just posing with them because he is pretty! Good work to Pa and Tanisha for the beginning of the orchard.

Danica and a turkey cuddle in her......hey wait a minute that is MY kitchen......oh well neither of them pooped (that I am aware of at least)

Once again but this time with the picture !! 

I baked the quiche for Lindsey's birthday

the picture of the chicken pen is for Kathy
the picture of Makenna is because I love her and Auntie CaCa and her baked the barbie cake!! 

When the grandgirls are away, Emilee helps Grammaluvvy in the kitchen!! 

Makenna's baking and Saige and her Daddy are going for a walkabout, isn't she get big? And check out her feet, I thought pink piggie but Auntie says dinasaur so I will leave it up to the viewers!!

 

Saige is glad that Pa is at home now!! Do you think she loves him? We do!
 

This is the Hotel we stayed at and a wonderful crane (heron) that entertained me for awhile. The sunset was one of many that we enjoyed when we weren't too 'tequila sunrised' ourselves!!!

 
 
 
  

These are some random shots of our vacation, the pelican was my favourite thing to watch. The sunset was from our plane window over arizona and was taken on our way back. The mountain is for Maeve!!

 
 
  

We are still here although we thought we were leaving today. Still no pictures but still having fun. ma and pa

Well still no pictures but having lotsa fun. Went to Walmart of all places today.

Hola no pictures as apparenty blogger is unfamiliar with my spanish. We are safe and having fun. Went on a boat tour yesterday, snorkelling, horseback riding and lots of tequila. Pa went to the bullfghts last night , boo, but came back without mishap (well not on him, the bull however slightly different story.) Today we rented a car and went to the mountains, found an amazing spot and will go back tomorrow and spend the night. we will take a taxi (water) to a beach and spend the day there snorkelling (as the best laid plans of mice and men......)
Love to all and Siobhan I have found you some amazing shells here. I think of you everytime I see the ocean.
Talk to you soon and will try to send pics when blogger not so cranky!
ma and pa

well so far........so good, we are at the days inn in richmond and have parked the car. We have a wake up call for 3:50 and an alarm in the room. Shuttle starts at 4:20 and then we are off to LA for 2 hrs then to Mexico!! We will continue to post as we go further south!
ma and pa

For all of you that I haven't been able to call, Pa and I are heading for Puerta Vallarta on Monday @ 6:30 am. We will have to go to Vancouver on Sunday as the plane leaves so early. We will return to Vancouver on the 23rd and then have to stay until the 24th as the plane arrives late. We are staying at the Luna hotel in Puerta Vallarta so you can check it out. Going on the European Plan which is a switch from the all inclusive so hopefully it will work out.
I am working from now until Sunday so if you wanna phone me, I am at work.
I will think of you all in your varying degrees of winter as I languish on a beach in the sun......now keep your eyes open for hurricane warnings there!!
We are taking the lap top in hopes that we can communicate from there but you know how that might go.
Love to all.
Ma&Pa and gummahonienonieluvvy

 
Saige is safe in Pa's loving arms 

OK I can't seem to either get Vashti on the phone, or onto Charli's blog so I am posting in the hopes that one of you will read this!!
I know that you are coming into Nanaimo @ 10:30 Jacqui, but what day please? LOL I thought you were coming on Saturday but now am confused...familiar state for me I know!
And to Vashti, I have been blogging the most profound and amazing comments on your blog, (actually brought myself to tears with my own wisdom) and blogger vomits me.
Ok then you are on the phone now.
