Gracie and Her International Fan Club





Gracie had visitors from Sweden over the weekend. I can't believe that they came all the way from Sweden just to meet Gracie. True fans. Very sweet girls. We encouraged them to see some of our other local sights while they were here. Outlet mall shopping, Universal Studios, Disneyland, and of course the LDS Temple. We hope they felt the trip was worth the time. They are welcome back anytime.
Daddy was at Cub Scout Day Camp for 2 days this week. Woodworking and pottery were the crafts we supervised. 40 hammers at one time can be deafening. Good thing my hearing is already impaired. Some of the den leaders couldn't stand 40 minutes of it. We did it 7 times that day. The Cubs made catapults, tool boxes, and tic-tac-toe boards.
The pottery was fun watching all the boys keep asking for more colored clay.
Today we poured and stamped Gracie's new sitting porch and walkway. It was quite warm and we were done in under 2 hours. No sitting around waiting for the concrete to get hard. I am tired. We will wash it tomorrow and it will be pretty. Gracie will thoroughly enjoy sitting on it with her parents as they get even older.
We are sorry that some of you might find one of our pictures to contain objectionable content. Please forgive us of publishing Job's picture. He jumped into the picture at the last second. How he tries to fit in. Poor Robyn!

Who are these people from Sweden?

Gracie looks so much older with her hair down! She looks like she's 5 or something! :)

p.s. I was really curious about the cement pouring and wanting to see the new look ... so I am especially glad that you included photos of this. THANKS!
