Two Weddings

Not only did we have three grandbabies born this summer, we also had two weddings. Our son John and our daughter Destiny were both married in August. John and Kim are in the picture to the right.

I made the flower girl dresses for John and Destiny's wedding.


I recycled the flower centerpieces from John's wedding into bouquets, boutonnière's and corsages for Destiny's wedding.

All Three Granddaughters


Here are all of our June grandbabies. Robyn is on the left. She was born June 25th. Peyton is in the middle. She was born June 22nd. Lillee is on the right. She was born June 10th. We sure love our little girls!

Our Second New Granddaughter

I know! These granddaughter pictures are totally out of order. I had trouble downloading my pictures when I posted pictures of Robyn so I couldn't post any pictures of our second June granddaughter.
Meet Peyton! She was born June 22, 2009 to our daughter Kim Murray and her husband Rigg.


Peyton was nine pounds two ounces and twenty-three inches long. She was born with a ton of black hair (which you can't see in this picture because it's covered up with her hat). She is full of personality and looks just like Kim but she has Rigg's nose!

Here's the proud dad just minutes after Peyton was born.

The first of our new granddaughters is born!















Baby Lillee was born at 7:52 a.m. on Wednesday, June 10th to our son John and Kim. She weighed 6 pounds 5 ounces and is 18.5 inches long. She is a beautiful baby and looks just like her daddy. We are so glad she arrived safely.
Isn't she the most beautiful baby in the world! Now we have 5 granddaughters and 1 grandson with 2 more granddaughters on the way THIS MONTH!

Here's Jordan's finished doll. She added the bow and flower at the waist and the rhinestones and flowers around the bottom of the dress. Notice the rhinestones on the hands.
In April Allan and I drove to Arizona to see Jared and Veronica and our grandkids. I decided I wanted to make fairy dolls with Jordan and Breana. I made the bodies and they painted the faces, hands and feet and dressed them with a little help from grandma. The decorations are all their own idea. I just brought a box full of "stuff" and they chose how to design their dolls. I think they turned out fantastic. The pink haired doll is Jordan's. She's five. The blond haired doll is Breana's. She's eight. I had a lot of fun helping them. Playing with my grandkids is on the top of my list of fun things to do!

These dolls are not quite done.


Here we are working on our dolls. I never did get mine finished. I got too busy helping the girls with theirs.
