Catch up!

It's time to catch up on the Tarbet happenings.  Since this is a journal of sorts for us, I need to do a little better job of posting.

We had another fun 4th of July in Lewiston this year.  I think my kids love Lewiston 4th celebrations almost more than Christmas.  The park had the bounce houses up but this is the only picture I got.  You can see Bo just behind Molly. 

This is a picture of Grandma and Grandpa Tarbet with all of the grandchildren and great grandchildren.  (minus Kent's family)

Baines birthday is also in July.  Baine turned two this year.  He seems older than that to me.  Maybe because he's so smart.  I know, we all think our grandchildren are the smartest.  Well, it's true in my case!

Baine is opening the gift that Brooks and I gave to him.  He handled this birthday quite a bit better than last year.

Kelsey goes to the nursing home to cut my dads hair when he needs it.  This last time, she took a picture of Baine with my dad.  My dad totally loves the little grandchildren and he talks about Baine all the time.  It's kind of funny, he doesn't remember alot of things.  Most of the time he is quite confused, but he always LOVES the grand kids and talks about most of them often.

Last Saturday we reserved the pavilion at the church next to the nursing home and brought my dad over and had a family party.  We missed a couple of families that couldn't be there but I think my dad really enjoyed himself.  He didn't eat much.  That's another funny thing, he loves the nursing home food and he didn't like what we brought for him to eat that day.  I can tell you that a year ago he would not have even taken a sniff of the nursing home food!  Not that it's bad food, he just felt that way about it.

We wanted to get a picture of Mom and Dad with as many of the great grand kids as possible that day.  I love these next two pictures.  I love how my dad has his arm around Jaxon.  I love how Brynly is always the little mother.  Notice her holding Baines hand and her arm around Bo.  I love how Molly was so happy to be with her cousins from daycare.

Julie's baby was crying and notice everyone looking at her except Molly (still cheesing for the camera) and Jaxon. (not interested in babies).

It was fun and easy to do and I hope we can do it again.
