Cool Dude - Lennon

Lennon tries on daddies hat and sunglasses for size. Looke like they fit pretty good.

Miss Ellianna & Master Donovan

Ellianna Grace Sanders is the oldest of my daughter Bonnie. She turned three years old on June 15th of this year. She is an incredibly bright and precocious little girl who I am sure will rule the world one day. And she will tell you that herself. She was talking in complete sentences before age two and I am sure can out argue any politician. She is going to start school (three school) this year, and is very excited about her new backpack, shoes and school clothes.

Donovan is now a year old and is running all over the place. His favorite is to run full blast straight at you and fall into you giving you a big bear hug. You gotta love that. He has the biggest smile you can imagine to go with those big brown eyes.

Little Princess

Since Zander is spending the rest of the summer with his dad, my sister Lynn has been taking Evelyn downtown Holland on Thursday nights because there are street performers and food vendors and the beloved balloon man. This past Thursday Evelyn decided she wanted to wear her princess dress. She was quite the beautiful girl and made an impression on many shop workers and the beloved balloon man made her not only a purple kitty but also a lovely pink flower bracelet for her wrist. He also provided her with a blue dog to take home for her brother.

Donavan's 1st Birthday

Donovan Jay Sanders is the second and youngest of my daughter Bonnie and on May 8th he turned one year old. He has the biggest brown eyes you have ever seen and the sweetest smile. With the exception of Isabella, all of my grandchildren were at his birthday party. It amazes me that there are seven of them now.

Papa's Park

A couple of weeks ago John and I decided we needed something for the grand kids to do in the backyard besides dodge the landmines left by Caleb, our very large Labrador so we shuffled off to Sam's club and purchased a very large puzzle that when assembled became this very awesome swing set / tree house / sand box, rock wall / tunnel / slide thingy. When Evelyn first saw it she gasped and said "Papa! You have a park!" So far they have had a ball on it. The little boy you see on the slide is Caden, Lisa's soon to be stepson. He is autistic and soooooo cute! When he gets to our house he runs straight out the back door and to the slide. Yesterday I was watching Peyton for the day and took him out to the swing because he was getting a little fussy. He fell asleep with in about three minutes. I think I'm going to like "Papa's Park".

What Color Blue Are You?

You are Ocean Blue

You're both warm and practical. You're very driven, but you're also very well rounded. You tend to see both sides to every issue, and people consider you a natural diplomat.
