This is what came up. Some how there were two pictures from when we went to California about 10 years ago on this film. I have no idea how though. It is a total mystery! I loaded the film in myself. It was a fresh roll of film. There were two old pictures and one that was half old and half new. Posted by Picasa

Read the blog picture below this first. I had put this picture up so it would come after the other picture but when I viewed the blog this one had not posted.
Mickayla's trap worked pretty good. This morning when she got up she had a Lebrachan hat in her trap. He must have been in a big hurry to get away to leave his hat behind. Mickayla will take the trap and hat to school today for the other kids to see. Most of the kids got notes from the Lebrachans telling them what nice traps the students had made, but the weren't clever enough. Posted by Picasa
Mickayla had to make a lebrachan trap for school this week. That was her homework. She thought hard and decided she wanted to make a trap out of a can. She did the hard part - thinking of what to make it out of. Then Dad and Blake went to work putting a trap together. (Isn't this how elementary homework works?) The trap was cool. There was a net in the can with a gold ring dangling up inside of the can by fishing wire. The fishing wire was connected to a mouse trap. When the Lebrachan grab the ring the trap went off pulling the net up around the Lebrachan.  Posted by Picasa

Maike arrived on Tuesday. She had first flown from Germany to Georgia and spent some time with a friend there. She then flew here. I put her right to work. The poor girl saved me, but she is going to be exhausted. She iced a wedding cake, made refreshments and helped with anything I needed help with. She was a wonderful help to me!! She at least knows how to put on an American Open house. She told me she wants us to come to Germany and help her put her wedding together. She decided she wants and American wedding cake. After she was done helping me she may could do her own. Posted by Picasa
Lillian gave Mickayla and her doll matching P.Js. Mickayla loves them. (Can we say SPOILED) Posted by Picasa
Maike and William. She had never feed a baby a bottle before. She got her chance with William. I don't know if I'll get her to try to change his diaper though. He sprayed all over me when I was changing him. She and Erin thought it was funny. Posted by Picasa
Mickayla took Maike as her show and tell at school for the letter G. (German) Mickayla was so excited. She told me she thought she was the luckiest girl in the world. Maike was great at the class. One of the girls raised her hand and said, "I like her because she is so beautiful." I think Maike liked that. I really don't think that anyone in the class knew what a German was, even if Maike talked to them in German. Posted by Picasa

Maike was a great help setting up. Here she is putting out the fruit for the chocolate fountain. She made everything look so beautiful! Posted by Picasa
This is Gwen helping with the shrimp tray. She was a great help to us, not only providing the house but helping with the preperation. The floral arrangement in the back ground is one of the arrangements that Brenda made for the night. They were all beautiful.  Posted by Picasa
This is the line at the open house. Mickayla lasted 2 mintues and then she was off to play Posted by Picasa
Candice looked beautiful at the open house. I think she was getting tired of all the parties though. Posted by Picasa

Grandpa and his favorite Granddaughter. (I don't know what happened to the top part of this picture. The flash must have reflected off something. I can't imagine what.) Posted by Picasa
Brent and the boys played a fun round of Air soft shot out. That is until Blake's gun broke. The boys always seem to have great time together. They missed having Keith to shot at though. He wasn't there yet.  Posted by Picasa

The morning started out early with Candice getting ready. LaDawn and Erin just fell out of bed and came into our room to help her transform into a beautiful Princess. All you girls will kill me, but here are the early morning pictures. You did a great job with our princess! (Ann got to sleep in a little while and come to the room looking ready for the day. She was to be the lady in waiting for Candice as she got her pictures taken before the wedding.  Posted by Picasa
