We now have proof that Brittany graduated. She finally got her official diploma. We are so proud of both her and Aaron. Yeah BYU-I Way to go kids!

Preparing for the move to Georgia. Check out that Garage!

The Nethercotts are moving out! They have their new little apartment in Atlanta. They took several loads down. It was nice that they could get settled a few weeks before the baby. We went down too. As we got to Atlanta we had one of those down pours! it was awful. Everything got wet. Larry and I stayed in our wet clothes for hours. We returned that night to our place.



We had a baby shower for Brittany. It was fun. I talk about it later too because i am combining Heather's pictures with my pictures. I wish i were better at this blog stuff.
The food was great. We had a fun time and Brittany was thrilled with the shower.
Kathy Garner made her a bear! Who makes bears?????? Kathy does.
I gave her diapers and the big bibs that I make. We made a quilt together also but didn't bring it to the shower.

Some of my good friends gave Britts a baby shower. It was so cute! The cupcakes had little plastic pins in them, the sandwiches were in the shape of a baby bottle, it was so cute!

Brittany was given some flowers, that were rolled up baby socks. Very clever! We had fun. We were able to work the shower around when Heather could be there and Yvette Elder and Amber Isaksen came too.



This is Brittany ready to have a baby. A little Nethercott is on his way.
This is the only thing the animals left for us....one little, bitter, cantaloupe!

Aaron with our little cantaloupe.

One of our favorite families, the DeFancos is moving and we had one last hoo-rah with them. They came and swam and played on the lake and then we had dinner and games for a fun filled family night. We will miss them.....




This is what I choose to have over my archway. It is in brown vinyl. Thanks Heather for your help with this. It looks great.

Papa traps the squirrels and spray paints their tails , so he knows if they have come back. Then he takes them to live with their "moms and Dads" down the road. We now take them a few miles away as they have COME BACK! MAYBE THEIR MOMS AND DADS MOVED?


One very clever little acrobatic. We were having fun!

An early morning squirrel run with her Papa.

Who would let her do that??? Yes Grandma! We made cookies together!

I am still working on Baby Nethercott's blanket! Almost done. It will be so cute.

Once in a while we look out and wee lots of geese. Grandpa even puts cornout so they will come on the lawn and close to the house.


We all eat pudding differently! Some are more creative than others.

Aaron is multitasking, eating pudding, talking on the phone and playing a card game! We love to all play games together. Golf and 3-13 are the favorites.

Brittany and I went on the neighbors boat for the 4th of July fireworks. It was so fun. There our little lights on the boats and there were hundreds of boats out there. It looked like a fairy land. Then the big fireworks were over the water, it was pretty.


Larry is 63 and had fun opening his cards and presents! We gave him a pie so he wouldn't have candles to blow out! That could get scary!

He loved his presents and his phone calls from his kids.

Larry got a portable ping pong set, so Aaron and dad had a quick game on the counter tops. We have since moved it down stair on a ping pong table!

We had the Park family out for a evening at the lake. We roasted marshmallow and made smores. The kids took the canoe out and played in the water. This is one of our favorite families to be with. They have amazing children. This is the Bishop's family, they used to be in the Acworth ward in Georgia.




We are making Brittany's little guy a quilt. She has done most of the work on it so far. She has designed it and cut it out, but we agreed that I get the credit. This will be the quilt grandma made for Dawson!


We had the scouts out for an outing. They were going to pass off their swimming and canoe things for camp. We all had fun for about 1 hour and then it poured down rain and we didn't use the lovey fire and had smores inside with the broiler as our fire. We had the scouts out the next Wednesday and it rain again. Smores again with the broiler! Camp is next week!




We like our in-laws to feel welcome and part of the family, so Aaron rode in the back of the truck....

We feed him pizza through the window.....

Actually Aaron was doing us a favor because we went to the Jocky lot for cheep plants and stoped at a garage sale too. We needed the truck for everything and we all wanted to go. We were full to the brim. Now the hard work, to get the plants into the ground.

Happy Father's day to a great Dad and a Dad to be. We had fun opining the presents. Dad loved his gifts and Aaron did too. Thanks for your thoughtfulness and your phone calls, kids. We love you all.

They loved their cards and gifts. We had a nice dinner and we made cheese cakes for dessert. Yum!

I got Dad a rake that is guaranteed to not break! We will be putting it to the test.

This is a t-shirt Darin and Llisa gave dad with the due date of the baby on it. Cute!
