GAVIN'S BLESSING DAY

What a great looking family !!!










Every new addition is so special to us.
We just love our new little Gavin.

No matter how many grandchildren and great-grandchildren Grandpa & Grandma Robinson get they always have a special love for each one.

I had to fight to get this picture, but I wanted a picture of me with my girls. I know I am going to get kind of sappy here, but it is my blog after all. I just love "my girls". Laura has always been a joy and blessing to me. I am so proud of the wonderful woman she has become. I am so proud of the way that she loves her children and how she is raising them in the gospel. I am also so proud of my sons that they had the good sense to choose such "elect young women" for their eternal companions. I know that I say this too much, but I am the richest woman in the world. I could not ask for better daughters than Leslie, Jill, & Kylie. They have never treated George and I with anything other than kindess and love. They are raising (and I know Kylie will too) their children with such love and care. I think of some of the things that they have been through with their children and I marvel at the inner strength that they have. I love these beautiful young women so much and hope that they know what remarkable women that I think they are.




One of the reasons that I love all these girls so much is this --- what a group. The sweetest words ever spoken, "Grandma can I sit on your lap?" Thanks so much for sharing your children with us. We love each and everyone of them so much.

HITTING THE ROAD

A "BIG" thank you to Kylie. Andrew and Kylie came down this weekend - we had a really great time. Kylie helped me get back on my blog. Somehow I had shut myself out, something about not remembering my e-mail address or password or something. (for all of you rolling your eyes, you will be old someday too.)




HAPPY BIRTHDAY LISA !!!!Lisa & Eddie are on their way to Vermont. We miss you guys so much already. I didn't realize how often during the day I would think, "I have to tell that to Lisa." Have a great birthday and we really really really hope that we can get together before too long.




QUINN COMES FOR AN ALL BY HIMSELF VISIT !!!




I know that I am late getting this on the blog, but I wanted to show what a great time we had when Quinn came for a visit "all by himself" !!! (For others requesting an "all by yourself visit"call our scheduling department, and be sure to ask for Grandma.)


The best part of every day is discussing the ills of the world and the political situation over cookies and cold milk.






I think the kids think that Grandpa would actually ruin the back yard if he put in grass.



Quinn was always excited for
Grandpa to get home to challenge
him to a game of soccer.
















The last night here we all went to see "Living Legends" (The Lamanite Generation). Quinn liked the bright costumes and the music. There is a lot of his daddy in this boy.
