Cutest baby boy in the whole wide world!


Awwwwww, Cameron is adorable

Cutest boys in the world!

I took Jax & Bay to see the newest Shrek movie last week we enjoyed it a lot.  Afterwards we picked Colby up and went to lunch and a park.  (He's very particular about what movies he likes and didn't want to see it!)  It was a really fun day and the boys were so good that I'll probably take them again!

Cameron meets GG

GG loved meeting her second youngest great-grandson
 (James Gregory Barr IV was born on June 3rd to James & Julia in Michigan)

Holy cow - Jaxson is taller than GG!

Jeff and I stayed with mom for 5 days to give Jim a little break and while we were there Jeremy, Tauna and the three boys came for a visit.  She was so tickled that they came and especially thrilled to be able to meet and hold baby Cameron.  It was an especially good day for mom and she was able to reminisce and visit with them.  She continues to amaze us with her resilience and weathers through a couple of strokes a month, sometimes more.  She is weak but happy to be alive to see so many wonderful things happening in all of our lives.  She says she wants to go be with my dad but doesn't want to leave any of us.  We love you mom, Grandma, GG!

Memorial Day in Spokane

Brother and sister in (see her little tummy?  so cute!)

3 beauties

Beautiful family

No words necessary!

Our oldest granddaughter, oh how we love her!

Meliss, Jeff and I were lucky enough to go spend a weekend with Jonathan, Amy and Abbie in Spokane.  It rained nearly the whole time - but we didn't go for the weather!  We did have one good day and took advantage of it by going to a couple of beautiful parks.  There were lilacs in bloom and lots of other flowers I can't identify!  We ate Amy's wonderful cooking, relaxed, talked, played Wii, presented Jon with an iPad for his 30th birthday and just enjoyed being together.  We are truly blessed as a family and we love each and every one!

Welcome to the world baby Cameron - May 25, 2010

Jeremy, Bailey, Tauna & Jaxson - waiting for Cameron!  Tauna was amazing and did such a great job bringing him into the world.  She seemed to breeze right through labor and delivery and looked beautiful throughout.  We are so proud of her and happy that their family is growing.

Oh, he's so beautiful (yes, boys can be beautiful too) and perfect.  We love him so much!
He was born at 11:25 weighing 6 lbs. 5 oz.

Jaxson wants a shirt that says, "My big brother is awesome!"

Bailey can hardly stand to be away from his baby brother

We are so blessed to have grandchild number 7 here safe and sound.

Melissa gets to hold Cameron for the first time.  It makes her scared but excited for Noah to be born!

Uncle Spencer's turn

Ta Da!  Cameron Jeffrey Miller

Mother's Day in Bountiful

Quite a change from your last Mother's Day huh Julie!  Such a precious family.

Our beautiful girls - both mom's-to-be!  

It was so great to have 4 of our girls (only missing Lacey) here to celebrate Mother's Day -
 thanks for making the trip Amy - we loved having you here!
Melissa, Tauna and I created this darling (even if I do say so myself!) quilt for Cameron. 
We can't wait for him to be born!

 Colby gave me something I've never before gotten for Mother's Day - or any other day for that matter - pudding!  He and Josh made a pie for dessert after I opened it, yummy.

Celebrating Mother's Day with the Millers


Mark & Jeannie, Bob & Sue, Steve & Joni, Ruth & Ivan, Rosie, Bonnie & Jeff
We met at Mimi's Cafe in Layton for a Mother's Day dinner and had a nice time getting all caught up.  The best news we heard that night was that Matt & Cherstyn Stockwell are going to have a baby, yeah!  We are grateful for the two that started it all - Ruth & Ivan.  They are great examples of living right and we love them so much.

Finally, all our 6 grandkids together!

Amy and Abbie came to visit, so for the first time ever - all our grandkids were together.  It was wonderful and oh so much fun.

Proud grammy and papa

Help, we have a raccoon!

This was a view on our deck one morning when Jeff was in Arizona golfing (or was it Georgia?  Can't remember, he's been all over pursing his passion!)  Anyway, I heard something running on our deck in the middle of the night and it scared the bejeebies out of me.  I jumped up and turned the light on just in time to see a huge raccoon!  It's been living on our roof for a couple of months and we can't seem to scare him away.  Jeff finally borrowed a trap and put tuna fish in hoping to lure him - no success.  I think we should try peanut butter and chocolate!  Any suggestions?

Ahhh, they're holding hands, so cute.

Doesn't get any cuter does it. That's not really a question!

Gosh, I'm 2 months behind on blogging so thought I'd catch up.  Jake tells me Lacey loves to see the photos - especially of the babies, so this is for you Lacey!  Can't wait to see you guys over the 4th of July.
