MY
HOW THEY'VE GROWN
Travis,
2nd Grade
Kelsey,
Kindergarten

Look what Travis
found at Target. Looks like SKIRTING THE GRAVE is 25% off. He's seen
"Nana's" books at the library, but I think this was a first store sighting
for him. He's become much more interested in my writing as he preps for 2nd
grade. Also knows that Christmas Baby is dedicated to him. As Kelsey
knows that Scoundrel in Disguise is dedicated to her. |

Laura, age 4, our GREAT-grand, who lives
across the country, and her kitty, Chloe. |

Mother's Day, May 2008 at Nana Nette's |
 |
 |
|
"Hello, Triple A? I'm stuck. Please come."
Yes, that's a quote. |
I've had enough of her driving! |
 |
 |
|
Driving in Nana's backyard with Dad, and Uncle Bobby and PaPop...in case. |
I want to go and drive the car again. |
 |
 |
|
Just checking for oncoming vehicles. :) |

 |
 |
| This is
Kelsey playing possum. |
This is the
real Kelsey. |
 |
 |
|
If we could package energy, we'd be rich! On the other hand, we're
rich because we have them. |
 |
 |
| Here I am! |
Anything for
a laugh. |
 |
 |
|
Nana Nette's bed is a favorite playground. |
 |
 |
|
Where are Kelsey and Travis? |
 |
 |
| Travis playing
wth his grocery basket. |
Kelsey, game
for anything. She loves that old Mickey Mouse hat with
Annette on it. |
 |
 |
| Look at my
mermaid doll. |
Kelsey,
pretending she's sleeping so she doesn't have to leave. |

always make Travis smile. |

swinging Christmas. |
 |

tired. It's been a long day. |
|

Happy Birthday
Kelsey age 2, Travis age 4, & big
sister Briana . . .
|
 |
 |
| We got cameras and took pictures of each other! |
"My hero!" Yes, that's a quote. |
 |
 |
| Big sister, Briana, celebrated her birthday as well. I egged her on to take that bite out of her goth girl cake! |
"I'm busy, Nana Nette." |
 |
 |
| We love our cleaning toys. |
 |
 |
| Kelsey & Diego. |
Kelsey and Dora the Explorer |
|
| Nana Nette picks them up at school and takes them for the afternoon. |

Looks like Kelsey could get into some trouble. |

Is she beautiful

TRAVIS, SPENDING THE NIGHT AT NANA'S |
|
 |
| The stair landing is one of my favorite places to play at Nana's. |
Travis rearranged our nativity scene and included Nana's dragon collection at the manger, Figment among them. |
 |

Nanna Mary and
Nanna Nette take Travis on his first Nana Day! |
 |
 |
| Travis spent a long time at the shark tank. |

 |
 |
| Yes, the parrot is real. |
Travis taking a picture of Nana Mary. |
 |
 |
| Wearing Nana Nette's sweater--because it was raining hard when we ran to the car--Travis is reading the only fish book we could find with cars in it. As far as Travis is concerned, cars are an absolute requirement in any book. |
A delightful, successful, and tiring, first annual Nana Day! |
