Playtime at Grandma's

Jack likes to stack things and is very good at it! He thinks the way you play checkers is by stacking them and is not interested in playing it the real way.

Brooke likes to climb, point and squeal! We are having fun times at grandma's house.

Ice Skating

Joshua gave a report at school about Ice Skating and he brought his report to our house on Sunday and gave us his presentation, it was great! He didn't have one written note because he knows alot about ice skating because he is taking some skating lessons.

Notice the white ice skates by the fireplace, well they are mine and we even have a pair of black skates that where great grandpa Wheatley's. Funny how the white skates are the same as in the picture that Joshua is holding. You would think they would make some kind of up-grade to skates after 40 something years. They look brand new because I don't like to skate. We had to skate on the big lake (okay it is a pond but it felt like a lake) in Brigham City. Something about being on a frozen, deep-water pond that I didn't like since I am afraid of water!

Josh gave all the kids a pair of skates to use at their homes just like the girls are demonstrating. These skates are also good to clean your floors. Great job Joshua!

Happy Valentines Day

We had a "Super" Valentines Day party! The kids flew around with their super power capes on and gathered up all the hearts that were taped all over the house. By the way, Ang made the cute super power capes. We ate lots of red foods like baked spaghetti, red jello (of course), pomegranate lettuce salad etc. and we ate too many desserts! Sugar cookies, chocolate cake, raspberry mousse, raspberry sherbet, chocolates, black licorice etc. (about 10 lbs. worth).

We played "pin the heart on the heart" game and ...

got some fun Valentine treats. We love all our little Valentines!

Dolls

I've been playing with dolls. I took a little break from cleaning out the closets. I got these 5 cuties for Christmas.

They come with their own case/play house.

I'm not sure which one is my favorite. Oh, by they way, they are perfume dolls! I can play with them and smell nice too! I now just need to get some of Ang's chinese doll material and make me some jamie pants to wear while I play with them.

Thanks Katherine and Abby for the fun!

Happy Birthday Megan

Megan celebrated her 3rd Birthday today. We had dinner at her house and she had a beautiful heart shaped cake.

She had her cousins over to her house, too.

Great Grandpa Wheatley happened to be down for the night and he brought her some old favorite Wheatley story time books. Now they will be read to another Wheatley family! Happy Birthday Megan, we love you!

Happy Birthday Angela

Ang came down for the weekend and we had a Birthday Party!! Sorry Ang that the pictures aren't the best. We had the famous "Byram Burgers", pasta salad & lemon squares which are some of Ang's favorites. Alan made a birthday poster and the little kids were excited about the balloons, running and chasing one another and screaming! Our house is pretty dead today.

Happy Birthday Angela!! We love you, have a great Birthday today.

Katherine's Secret Life

I found this article while cleaning out the closet and I now know where Katherine has been spending all her time!

Like she said she was going to college, Japan, Italy and Kentucky, but really has been moonlighting as some ambassador's daughter!

Or maybe Katherine and this Blythe are really twins and were separated at birth and Katherine was given to me by mistake at Alta View Hospital!

Or maybe she is spy and has been acting as this couples daughter!

Or maybe instead of being a "hand model" she is a "face model" and is just making this couple look good so we think they have a child!

Or Katherine has just found her "look-a-like twin"!
