The Sleepover at Grandma and Grandpa's!!!

Wes and Jenn were moving into their house and Ang and Ryan's hot water heater broke so we all had a sleepover at our house. Just ask Whee-C how sleeping with Taytem was??? The next morning we had "pamcakes" as Tay would say.

Maybe ACTUALLY being 54 has done something to Grandpa Paco's mind. I think he thinks he is the Frog Prince.

Photo Shoot!!

Whitney took Taytem to the park to play in the leaves and came out with a lot of cute pictures.

Senior Pictures

This summer Whitney went and had her picture taken up Logan Canyon and we just got them back. This was my favorite pose!!

Van's Birthday!!!

Heavy Heavy Hang over . . . Notice Taytem's cute outfit and accessories.

Grandpa is reading "The Touch of the Master's Hand" to Taytem.

Van had a great 54th Birthday. Notice Taytem is really intrigued by the pictures and story or she really likes to pose for the camera.

THE MISSION CALL!!!

The Anticipation . . .

Could you open it a little faster?

Colton Waldron has been called to serve in the New York, Utica Mission. He will enter the MTC on January 14, 2009. We are all very excited for him. Notice the shirt he is wearing in the pictures above. And as if that's not ironic enough for you . . . New York was Whitney's guess (She won the prize).

FUN WITH THE KOOBIE COUSINS ! ! !

JOSHUA DAVID MAYESKI was blessed by his dad, David, on Saturday, October 4, 2008 at Don and Sylvia's home in Franklin, Idaho. It was really cool to be all together for this special occasion. He is such a cutie and we were glad to finally meet him. This is a family picture taken right afterwards. (Kori, Dave, Marlee & Josh)

The boys are definitely outnumbered. Pictured below are several girl cousins with Whitney right in the middle of them. In the next picture we have a few boys: Noah, Tanner, Baby Josh & Baby Linden. (Blake had taken off by this photo shoot)

Grandma Keet with the girls. Grandpa Paco with Tanner on Ruth.

Marlee & Brynn and Mary & Taytem on Belle.

A good time was had by all!!!

TRIP TO MARYLAND TO SEE MY KIDS!!!

I am the luckiest mom and grandma in the world because
I got to fly out and see the Murdocks earlier than planned.




It was so fun for me to be able to fly back to Maryland and
see Paul, Natalie & Sydney. I was glad I got to see where
they live, their ward, their friends, etc... It was really fun
to help them put their apartment together. I don't know
who was more excited to see all of their stuff . . . Natalie
or Sydney. It was pretty much like Christmas opening the
boxes. As you can see from the pictures, Sydney was a BIG
help as well.



Sydney playing with her friend, Emma when they came
over for dinner. Paul & I tried to make Natalie take it
easy but it was a hard task.


I had so much fun playing with Sydney. Syd loves peek-a-boo.
She also loves her "Goodnight Moon" book. (This is Natalie's
favorite book as well, just ask her)


Going to the Washington D.C. Temple with Natalie the day
before I came home was a highlight for me. It is a beautiful
temple. Now I am home and Sydney and I can just talk to
each other on the phone. I love you guys. Thanks for
everything!
