A Visit with my Cousin ~ Olivia!

We told them we wanted a picture of them together for Granny and they both refused....
This is the picture we ended up with after much trying.
We did not plan the outfits...it just happened.
Jeremy and Uncle Jason

Jeremy and Aunt Julie
(This picture and the one with Jason were made possible by Jeremy's complete addiction to bubble gum!!!)

Aunt Jaki and her little "blue eyes"! I am handing the honor of the nickname "blue eyes" down to my niece that has eyes as blue as mine!

Jeremy did not like this ride once it started so he ran the entire way home from the park!
Run Forest Run!

The highlight of Jeremy's weekend in Indy was the piano!


I think one day he may be a fabulous pianist!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I hope you enjoyed our pictures from our visit to Indy to see "baby" Olivia...When we got there and Jeremy saw "little girl" Olivia he was asking when we would be seeing "baby" Olivia...I don't think he realized that she was going to have grown so much since last time we saw her. We had fun and can't wait to see her and her mommy and daddy again in Huntley for Thanksgiving!!!

THANKS!!! THANKS!!!! THANKS!!!!

Watch out...I'm backing up!
Doing the bear crawl up and down the ramp
Guest Bedroom with Jeremy's old bed and my beautiful new bedding!!
We also call this room "Grandma's Room"
Maybe some day it will be "the baby's room"
Jeremy's "new" double bed....so Mommy and Daddy can be more comfy when sleeping with Jeremy.....

This use to be Mommy and Daddy's bed and then it moved to Seattle...

Our "new" kitchen table!! This use to live in Seattle too and it was one of those rare finds on a garage sale that my mom was at when they lived in their apartment while waiting for their house to be built....all their furniture was in storage.....now it has a new home in Huntley!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
How did all of this get from Seattle to Illinois you ask....
That would be a great big thank you to my Uncle Bruce in Minnesota!!!
One of his trucks went from my mom and dad's house to pick up a load of apples and then to Minnesota...then from Minnesota to Huntley to my U-Haul to my garage to my house!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Stay tuned for pictures of more items that made the trip to live with us in Illinois






Jim Gill!!!

Jim Gill sings the sneezing song and other contagious tunes!!
Alabama Mississippi!
We got to see Jim Gill in live concert at Jeremy's future kindergarten school!
We had so much fun!
