That's Amore

Trevor is livin it up in Boise, having so much fun with Papa, Lee Lee and Miken (as he says) and Kevin. He's also crazy about his cousins and daily asks when he is going to see them again, oh and his uncle Ryan. Sorry, no love Andrea! He also asks for his Houston cousins and gets so excited when I show him pictures of Evan and Danelle on the blog. Lee Lee made one of his favorite meals - Spaghetti and corn, he rewarded her with lots of loves! Some of you may know that I am often referred to as Crazy Aunt Mel on my side of the family. And I'll admit that it's kind of true - I mean, we do have video footage to prove some of the craziness. But I have to say that I see the craziness more as me being fun-loving and having a strong desire to win over the hearts of my sweet little brothers or nieces and nephews. So, observing my sweet mother with her grandkids, I know where I get it from. So from one crazy lady to another, I love ya mom. You're the best grandma ever!



Trevor has learned a few new words since we left TX and in general is just talking more and more. He learned a few really important words on a walk with the girls. Treasure and Echo. Maddie is totally into pirate treasure and she took us on a treasure hunt up behind the house. Once we were up on the hill the girls taught Trevor about echoes. For a few days after that, he shouted echo whenever he saw the mountains, whether he was outside, in the car, or in the house. But I think he's figuring it out now....

The Three Muskateers - Maddie is totally the ring leader. She's enjoying the fact that Trevor goes along with almost whatever she wants with little or no resistance, which she gets from Mia.

Setting off on the treasure hunt. Maddie and Mia are on a mission, Trevor's still figuring things out.

Setting out on our little hike. He's catching on to this pirate treasure hunt.

Blowing Bubbles with Lee Lee

Boise

A few pictures from our stay so far in Boise. We are missing David sooo much but having a great time. I did talk David into joining us here for a few days, so we are excited to see him later this week.

Cousins

Here are the fun pictures of Trevor playing with his cousins in Utah. We had so much fun being there for baby Autumn's blessing and playing with everyone.

GRAND Parents in GRAND Junction

Trevor and I spent a few fun days in Grand Junction with Grandpa and Grandma Jones. We arrived on the day that they had their boxes delivered to their new home. Trevor and I had a great time, and he had some time to warm up to them and have some fun playing with his cars and being silly with Grandpa. On the first night we were there we went to Olive Garden. Trevor was exhausted from running up and down the ramp and playing with the cars and fell asleep at the table while eating his breadsticks and spaghetti.

We helped Grandma unpack a few boxes and had fun reading lots of David's old mission letters. I wasn't as helpful as David would have have been if he was there, but I did save the day by finding the satelite reciever when the DirecTV guy was there. So, I guess we earned our keep!

On Halloween we helped hand out candy to a few trick or treaters. Trevor picked up the routine and holds out his little chubbs and says trick or treat.

I just took a couple pics for David to see the place where his parents live.
