Not sure if anyone even checks my blog anymore since I didn't do anything with it for so long, but just in case, I'm going to post some pictures of activities from the last couple months. 
This is our precious grand daughter, Zippora. If you have seen the movie "Ramona and Beezus" you will have an idea of how much fun Zippy is - her nickname is Ramona!
Laiya celebrated her 18th birthday last month!
She also celebrated her 4th 'gotcha' day on April 28.
Amazingly, April 28 is also Emily's 'gotcha' day. It's been 28 years since she came 'home'!
Abby and Ty were having fun with dress-up clothes. Check out Ty - he's picking his fake nose!!
Here's Zeke, 13 months old, taking one of his first steps. He looks like he's running, but he takes giant steps and his arms were up so it was just his pose:-) 
A couple weeks ago we got to spend a couple hours at Grandparent's Day at Byron Christian School - that is always a highlight of our year! Their music teacher has them sing wonderful old hymns from back when we were kids! It's always fun to visit their class rooms and see what they are learning, too.
Ty didn't want to pose for a picture - he wanted to show us all the body parts they are learning about!!
This is the coolest keepsake treasure box that my grandson Isaac made me. He cut it, sanded it, nailed it, put a hinge on it and painted it. Then he tapped "grandma's" in it with nail holes. Pretty nice work for a 9 year old and something I will keep forever!
Laiya painted a picture of my mom's cottage (in color) for art class and it turned out really nice. We framed it and gave it to her for Mother's Day.
Last, but certainly not least, is a picture of 16 of our 17 grand children. It's hard to get all 17 together but we actually did it a couple weeks ago for family dinner. Then when the two youngest woke up from naps we got them all gathered outside for a group picture. After I snapped away, thinking 'ahh, finally!' I found out one of the kids didn't want to be in it so there are only 16! Oh, well, maybe next time!
So this is a little of my life in pictures. Please leave a comment so I know you were here:-)
Lots of new pics!
