Today I'll post a new picture of each grandkid.  I get lots of Ethan and Jaylie
since they come over during the day alot while Isaac is at school. 
It's harder to get good ones of Isaac.
Isaac is the redhead running towards us.
Ethan playing on Sam's laptop at the bar.
Jaylie wanted in the tub, so I gave her a washcloth to wipe everything down. 
Gretchen decided to join her.

We got to make a trip with the three grandkids to Galveston just before Ike did it's damage.  Here are lots of pictures of our wonderful vacation.  You can read about Eric and Dixie's "staycation" at http://lookaway-dixieland.blogspot.com/.

Isaac used to not want a picture taken of him. 
He kept posing for me at the Moody Gardens Aquarium. 
Look at Jaylie's hands and face!
This place was amazing, and the kids were enthralled.
Isaac and Ethan and a few of their coolest friends.
Ethan and Jaylie in the "theater."
We met a lady who was an Oklahoma fan. 
She said she was really having trouble seeing all of our Texas shirts over and over.

The Grands spent the night at our house last night while Eric and Dixie had a date. 
This is them sitting on the piano bench when they were ready for church this morning.


May 8, 2008--Dixie, Jaylie and I went to Portrait Innovations this morning and had our pictures made together.  Here are a couple of the shots.  (They took 93!!!)

I had all three Grands from early Friday, March 7, through Sunday morning, March 9.  Eric, Dixie, and Sam all went to Tulsa, OK, for a big group recording by Keith Lancaster of Acappella fame.  Here are some recent pictures.
Ethan and Isaac.  Isaac is better about having pictures made than he used to be, but this was his best smile for the camera today.
This isn't the best picture, but shows how tall Jaylie is getting.
As curly as Jaylie's hair is...that's how straight Ethan's is.

Ethan and Isaac needed to go to the doctor yesterday, so we got to keep Jaylie.  I got a few good pictures I'll share.  The last one is of Ethan getting a breathing treatment.  The doc thought he might have pneumonia and sent him for chest x-rays.  He needed a few breathing treatments.  It is a VERY touching picture.
Jaylie just watching...not for long.  She started rearranging puppies right after this.
Heeeeere's Jaylie!!!
Dixie and Ethan.  This picture just grabs me.

"The Littles" were over here yesterday while Dixie went on a field trip with Isaac.  We got a few good pictures while they were here, plus at our neighborhood playground. 
Jaylie dips and blows from the same end.
Who does she look like?
Ethan caught a bubble on his blower.
Jaylie is a brave "slider."
Check out this wild hair!!!
Here's Papa carrying his little sweetie.

Hmmm, whatcha got there?
OK, I'll share
Good cookies!
NO!  Don't take my picture!
Isaac usually trys to outrun the camera...no shots today.

This is Isaac's first season of soccer.  We're so glad we're here to see him play...and to play with "The Littles" (Ethan and Jaylie) during the game.
 
Yeah, that's what we do with them when their parents go away for 5 days...lock 'em up in the dog kennel.
 
Here it looks like Ethan is really into his music!
 
Look at those peepers!
