Aunt Mupp and Samuel




Danielle has a way with kids. It is a God-given gift. The kids call her Aunt Mupp. She and Samuel had a good time outside at the new swing set. Later, she and Samuel learned how to separate the leis into different colors.

Birthday Celebration






We drove to the city to attend Little Hazel's first birthday party. She had a grand time, and so did big brother. Hazel liked the gifts, but liked the cake even better. She made such a mess with the cake and icing that she went directly from the highchair to the bathtub.
We brought a little gift for Samuel, so he wouldn't feel so left out. It was a foam sword. Foam, so he wouldn't hurt little sister as he pretended a sword fight.

Fun with Rayna




Here are a few more pictures of little Rayna. She is a real talker. In fact, she chatters all the time. The only problem is that most of her words are just one syllable. When you are around her for a while, though, it is very clear what she is trying to say. She is very happy most of the time. She calls Nana "Le" and she calls Padron "Doe".

Mother's Day in San Antonio




We spent Mother's Day with Kent's mom this year. We had a wonderful bonus, because that meant I could have Mother's Day with my daughter and granddaughter, too! Our San Antonio family met at Kent's mom for barbeque and conversation. Little Rayna got to play with Hunter and Vicki's kids, especially little Katie who is her age. All in all, it was great fun. Here are some pictures of the family. The one with Grandma, Padron, Kara, and Rayna is four generations. Also, notice how sweet Rayna and Katie are. They are the same size.
