Halloween with Grandma

Chelsey looks like she is about ready to step off and go down the cat walk!!

Chelsey plays volleyball with NOR

Chelsey -- #45 -- ready to serve and to hit the ball. Also, a photo of my parents who came for Halloween and to see Chelsey's game.


She is just finishing up volleyball with North of the River recreation. She loves it. Now she wants to play with that US volleyball league. Does anyone know anything about that group?

Relief Society Enrichment Night Craft

Relief Society crafts have certainly gotten better over the years! These individual wooden blocks that spell out FAMILY are the bomb. They are vinyl letters that you rub on! Judy Austin said that if you squint and look at the blocks just right, you can convince yourself that you hand-painted them!

The YW's presidency was curiously absent last night. We missed you three girl friends.

I WON! I WON! I WON!

It was Amy's birthday, but I won! I guessed the closest time to Amy's birth and won prizes! Ah, it's good to have friends with birthdays! I tried to get my grandson to hold the prizes...he wasn't too interested (just wait).

Cubscouts Visit the Bakersfield Californian (newspaper)

What a great-looking bunch of boys gone wild! It was a great outing, and we even got to get inside where the reporters were quietly working on deadline seated in front of their computer (nothing like reporters of old!).
