Time Seems to Be Flying By

It seems the older I get the faster time flies. It is hard to believe my two oldest grandchildren are in the final weeks of their first and third years of college. Seems I was just playing with toddlers or rocking fussy babies a few years ago.  So proud of these two. Love you Dustin Wayne Bowman and Lauren Raylee Hart!

Lauren Freshman year - Science Building

Dustin Freshman year - Outdoor Chess Board

Thank You Cindy!

Cindy surprised me yesterday by planting me a new flower garden. She said it is my Mother's Day gift. I think it looks very nice. Thank you to Cindy, Rodney, Lauren, and Lindsay!

Samantha's Cherry Pies

Samantha wanted to try something new last night so she experimented with little cherry pies. They were okay but she says she still has to get better!

The first ones.

They got better as she went along!

Wow! Carlos

My how time flies. Can't believe Carlos is off to his first formal occasion. Seems like only yesterday he was a scared little 4-year-old walking in our front door after being found in Oregon. He is a good kid and we are so proud of the young man he is today. Hope you have a great time tonight Carlos!

My Pretty Lilies

I love my pretty red lilies that brighten my yard every Spring. Thank you Dustin for taking these pictures this morning before school.

Samantha's Baking Products

Of course our little baker couldn't pass up a holiday like Easter without making some pretty treats. Thankful people at church enjoy her goodies. She was delighted when they ask for snack items in the store. She helps out the Cornerstone (our missions gift and book store) by selling some of her treats there. It keeps the family from eating them all and adds to the coffers, too!
