May Trip to Michigan and Illinois

I wanted this at the end but...it takes too long to figure out how to upload on blogspot. Anyway Keith bought an Ultralite plane-something that doesn't make his Mother very happy!!!

Jesse, Leo, Phyllis and Elmer-Jesse's brothers and sister at our favorite Michigan restaurant for breakfast. Every egg has 2 yolks!




Keith and Linda are raising chicks for eggs and the roosters will be supper! Unfortunately the kids are naming them all and said they wouldn't eat them :-D
This should be me on the couch-I was worn out just watching Linda work. She homeschools all 4 children and is cooking continuously a diet that is helpful to Alex's digestion plus does special exercises 2 hours or more a day with Olivia and Alek. Whew!



The 10 big chickens liked it under the motorhome.






We went to the Field Museum in Chicago. Alek loves monkeys and has asked Grandpa to make him a monkey quilt.










This is my name in hieroglyphics-at least that is what the lady told me!

















Heather, Kelly and Grandma Judie.













Heather has been helping out with the cooking.













Kelly and Heather next to the "chicken tractor"
It is to put the little chicks in so the big chickens don't peck them and it will be moved around the yard. I always learn something new when I visit!





Grandpa and Alek.













Grandpa and Olivia













Keith and Olivia













Me and my twin sister, Debra. Our joke is that people have trouble telling us apart! Actually she is 3 years younger but...it could be the other way around!




Me, Jeff, Thelma, Jazmend and Jynnejah

HAHS 2009 Graduation

Jesse and I at the graduation party for our local high school in our new chairs. Last Sat. the chair Jesse was sitting on collapsed and caught his finger. 5 stitches and an tetanus shot and 4 hours in the ER and we were on our way. Eleven graduates from our church-all with high honors and Pastor James' daughter, Hannah was Valedictorian.
We were at Raystown Lake. It was a lovely day and a lovely party.








Antonio and his daughter, Kaleigh.
Antonio is originally from Portugal. His wife, Cindy-not pictured-met him when he was a chef on a cruise ship. We are blessed to have him in our church. Miss Piggy was the star of the graduation party.
