Self Portrait "missing a little of ear"

OK kids get the sun screen, hats and sunglasses out!

Cataracts and Skin Cancer caused by UV rays.

Doctor trimmed edge of ear and then cauterized it with hot iron to stop the bleeding.

Burning flesh does not smell good, even that little bit. lol

Should Have Known Better?

I'm I being told something here?

Just says 47th Anniversary "Not Happy"?

You would think after 47 years I would know to take the picture before Viola sees

Chocolate!!!!!!!!!!

Feed Me, No Feed Me

This is an all day job for Mom and Dad!

While I was watching both parents arrived one behind the other, while the other one would wait to feed their young.

I think they were saying my turn or just Feed Me?

Come on has to be More?

Do not know why they pick my down spout every year? I even tear it down while they are trying to build but look up and they have put it back.

Day 2 and 3 of Special Olympics

Ce Ce wondering if we would be on time for the start?

And They are Off!
Ce Ce getting Bronze

Only one event that day then time for Family picture taking!

OK some like to look down on you when they take pictures? But I hate to get up when I'm setting. lol

No Aysha's not setting on Viola's arm, there is a wall there.

Surprise, Viola's eyes are not closed, now we know where Mercede gets it from.

OK Back at hotel time for a couple of pictures there and time for me to head to room for a nap.

Found out later they had spent 3 hrs there.

Last day hard to find where Ce Ce and Mercede will be in events. Mercede had 3 and Ce Ce had 2 and on different sides of the Field, so missed some pictures.

Here C e Ce gets Gold for Base Ball throw.

Mercede Gets Bronze

I have never seen Mercede Run so good~!

She came in Second they Say? Out of 4 running and I did not see the one that won.

But she did get Sliver!

Starting of 2010 Special Olympics

The Officers and Officials in these two pictures were waiting for the entrance of the Athletics to give them high fives as they parade in. And they donate their time!

Makes you feel proud and brings a tear to my eyes.

Did get a better picture of Mercede and Ce Ce coming back after parading in front of grandstand.

The Moon was fighting to hold the Lighting and Rain off in the distance.

As the storm clouds were rolling in.

They got the Torch Lighted for the games the next day.

Got to our Van and leaving the parking lot it

Started to Rain. We all had made it.

"Thanks to God for putting the Moon there."

Never ever seen my Daughter so Happy!

When her Daughter got a Free Ice Cream Scoop from the Dairy Farmer's Exhibit.

A State Trooper was walking by, I told her he might run her in!~ lol

Weekend In Columbia Mo.

Aysha's Dance Recital

OK Kristi got her to pose sitting.

Well my tripod was in the car

or could have gotten all of us. Missing Cole, was not feeling well.

In Shelter Gardens at their small park as I was sitting on a bench waiting for Viola and a early Locust was staring at me.

Thought he might just be drying his wings out for I did not bother it at all.

It is a great place to take Pictures
