Black Road

Mike and TJei went for a ride today, offroad. They cruised around on backroads behind Lyman Lake and spent quite a bit of time out there exploring. Eventually, TJei turned and asked, "Grandpa, can we go back to the black road now?"

Laptop

"Grandma, when you get done with your laptop, can I use it? I have a lot of stuff to upload."

Seriously, that's what TJei told me a few minutes ago. :)

Then, after accessing her blog page to "sign in" and going to the new post page, she calls out, "Hey, what happened to my dot com?"

A Few More Things

Mike and I drove to Flagstaff yesterday and a portion of our conversation included laughing about things TJei has said. Driving along the Interstate, Mike suddenly broke into laughter and recounted the following...

"TJei said to me, Grandpa, Grandma can...you can, too!" and he laughed while explaining he had let go of the steering wheel to scratch his ears. TJei had excitedly proclaimed, "Grandma can drive without holding the spinning wheel and you can too!" Maybe she's had too many renditions of Princess Aurora's birthday dilemma.

As the sun lowered in the sky and an antelope stood in the road on the drive between Holbrook and St. Johns, we were reminded of another funny from TJei. We had been driving back from Show Low and had seen several antelope gazing along the rolling hills just west of town. Suddenly, TJei squealed out. She was the first to see one of the beautiful animals come into view, "There's a cantaloupe! I saw it first." Recalling the excitement and miswording still brings a smile. :)

Recital

I'm wearing the cute costume Sis. Crockett sewed for me using the ribbon and clothes Mommy got. Grandma made my pretty hair bow. She was the greatest sewer that I have seen and everybody can look at your sewing. Love, TJei.



Now I am going to my dance recital. And it was the greatest show and everybody came and watched us. I had a lot of fun.

(YOU have to overlook the jiggling in the videos...Grandma was juggling Mia, too.)

Kindergarten Program

"I love my song and I love all of the songs." Love, TJei




"I love you Mrs. Herring. We will come to your class every day." Love, TJei

Along with the musical program, the kindergarteners demonstrated a couple dance routines. Cayden is TJei's partner for the square dance...Wes was just to her right, her "turn to the corner" partner. That made her smile. :)


The little ones also made a Mother's Day gift using one of their old shoes.


The program conclussion...

After the program, Grandma returned to the school again to have lunch with TJei. She shared her carrots with grandma and grandma shared her bean burro (with cheese) with TJei.

He Made an Impression

It was really tough to maintain composure when this little ditty came forth from TJei. :)

My Dot Com

She asks, "Is that my dot com you just passed?" as I click between Internet windows.

Yes, TJei. This is your page.

"Will you read it to me again?"
