New cuties in town.....

Plenty of babies in H2Otown today. Bryce and Jessie joined us today as we spent some time with the family at the Butler Reunion. Katie and Landon also were here. They are in town for the week and I think Katie has her hands full but all my grandchild along with Jon and Jean's kids kept him pretty busy. It was nice to see everyone there and Nana was the proud peacock with the most family members attending.

Rainbow Connection

There is nothing like your grandson calling to tell you to look at the rainbow that formed tonight and taking a picture of it. While looking at the rainbow pictures I took, I couldn't help but sharing some pictures that Justyn took at the Butler reunion. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did. He might have had some help unless he figured out how to work the timer. Anyone want to confess??? I couldn't post them all but he could have filled an album with 20 pixs of clouds, 12 pixs of grass, wood chips and just about everything else you can imagine. Oh did I mention 6 pixs of Monica's good side???????????

Dance dance said he the Netto girls are the Lords of the Dance

We all were certainly entertained at the Netto girls dance review. It was especially cute when Hannah tried to unfreeze her sister Jennah in the second dance act. One girl tried to dart under the curtain. At least Jennah just stood there while Hannah danced around her. Julia was fantastic for both of her acts. She was really into it this year. Jensen won't be far behind after smelling the flowers!!! Someone needs to tell the twins that they can't play in every pond like Papa's.

Earning a SUmmer Income

Too bad you guys don't golf as good as game as you talk. 3 Trips to the course, 3 W's baby. I will be sure to let you know how dinner was tonight a little bit later if I'm not busy. In case anyone is wondering, here is the tally: Me-45-44=89; Saint8 (my only real competition) 46-45=91; Unlce Jon 47-48=95 and Jess 46-49=95. No there was no incentive, but lets just say to the victor goes the spoils. You guys should let a sleeping dog sleep...but no you keep calling me to take your money. Who says teachers don't work in the summer?

Saturday Golfing

As much as i do not want to post this i will have you know Jayson shot a 42 on the front and a 44 on the back to take all honors this weekend. Jared was the only one with a birdie, which we all know is now big deal unless it is Uncle Jan, and came in second with a 46 on the front and 45 on the back. Would of won the back if it were not for horrible chipping on 17 and terrible tee shot on 18. Savor the flavor Jay it wont happen again. Friday at tomacy's in adams there is already four if anyone else is interested let me know ASAP. The foursome includes Jayson, Jess, Jon, and Jared anyone else is more then welcome it would not be the first time golfing in odd numbers. In case no one has my number it is 315-489-6680 or you can call Uncle Jon.

Little Tykes Fishing Derby

Uncle Jess and Uncle Fred braved the threat of thunderstorms to take the little munchkins fishing today. Needless to say it was quite interesting. Justyn won the award for most fish caught and longest time with his pole in the water. He caught about 2 dozen assorted pan fish. Julian caught 3 fish, alot of weeds, and greif from his father since he was more interested in the sticks and rocks. Jaymeson won the award for most fish not to land on shore as he offically caught 2 but lost 2 others while holding them above the water. He also was more fascinated with the rocks and sticks and kept Dunc company. Overall, they were excellent and it was a great time as they talked about the fish all the way home. Yes it is true that Fred still doesn't take his fish off the hooks, but he does bait his own line. Oh yeah, the only thing Fred and Uncle Jess caught was high blood pressure.

Helocopter Ride Anyone

Well if nothing else these service men will never have children after letting my grand kids tour the helicopters at the Fairgrounds. In and out, up and down, and jump on the ramp of the big one because it makes noise!!!! I hope everything worked after they got done pushing every button there was. One of the pilots did tell Jeremyah and Hannah not to push the lever back and forth so hard. The kids had so much fun that they didn't want to leave. Only a promised lunch at McDonald's play land pulled them away.

Lifeguard on duty

Little does Jayson know this is how amy

spends her time watching the kids at the pool . The empty pool pic was how many people were in the pool. Good thing Uncle Jared had an eye on them at the playground. Good Job MOM!!!!!

Moving on to First Grade

It is official: Justyn graduated from Kindergarten and will be moving on to First Grade in September. He sang a couple of songs or at least I saw his lips move and he made his hands disappear once while he was on stage singing (see picture of him on stage - look no hands). Pretty short and sweet graduation. I thought Justyn was a quiet good little boy until I heard this kid say hey Justyn you want to get your picture taken with me as I turned around I saw the kid who got sent to the Principal's office for fighting. Justyn just who are your friends??? Jared I didn't see any girls coming up to him, you might want to give him some pointers!!!!

Sister, you better watch out

Okay, I hear a sister can be a pain but really Dunk I don't even think this idea would make Jensen "roll over" for you!!!!!

Julia and Jaymeson Graduate to Kindergarten

Next time you see the 2 little graduates tell them good job! Believe it or not Jaymeson broke out of his shell, and threw a couple dance moves in on stage! Watch out ICH Elementary, the St. Croix / Netto clan is coming back in force!
