Another One about G Squared.

Apparently, all I have to blog about is my kid.


This picture just makes me laugh. He has a weed in his right hand he's trying to give me. It's the first time he's ever given me flowers. And the sun was shining right in his eyes.
Something not about Grant, the cake for the 4th which was really the 5th in our house. It's from Barefoot Contessa, also featured on Pioneer Woman's website. My neighbor forced me to pose for the picture.




You've got to notice the warning on the side of the bucket to see the humor in this picture.

His latest thing is wearing blankets for capes. He'll walk around all day like this.

The Scorpion King

We took Grant to the park this weekend. This kid loved the slide. He would face plant every time he went down but he kept going back for more.

It never occurred to me to catch him, only to take pictures of him totally biffing it.

Some recent favorites.

Friends for life, they just don't know it yet. The super cute exit of Harry and Lucy, don't they look so happy. After the sparklers, they drove off in a semi-truck and lived happily ever after.

At the same wedding. You'll normally see Grant running just like this laughing uncontrollably. I think he gets it from his father. This was at the Manti Pageant just before he landed on a stranger's blanket and drooled his blue M&M spit all over their blanket.

My sis-in-law. I see so much of her personality here, I love it.

You never how much parents love their kids until you become one yourself. Geez.

Sloppy Joe

He loves to tell jokes.

Tom and his wife Mary go to the fair every single year. And every single year Tom asks Mary if he can go on a helicopter ride and every year Mary says, "No Tom. The helicopter ride is $50. $50 IS $50 you know." Year after year it's the same answer "$50 Is $50 you know."

In Tom's 72nd year of his life, the pilot of the helicopter ride overheard the conversation and tells Tom he'll take him and Mary up for free as long as they don't say anything. If they speak during the ride, they would have to pay $50 after they landed. They have to absolutely silent. Tom is overjoyed!

As the helicpter touched ground after the flight the pilot comments how surprised he is Tom and Mary were able to be so quiet.

Tom responds "I almost spoke up when Mary fell out, but $50 IS $50 you know!"

My Grandpa, the comedian.

I love this kid.

He speaks his own language, he tells me secrets, he kisses me on the mouth then wipes off his spit from my face, he throws his head back and laughs when I'm laughing, he plays with his own shadow.

I love my life.
