We did a “dump” of Kathy’s iPhone and on it were over 100 videos from the last 2 years. A collage of misc and assorted memories. Combined about an hour and twenty-three minutes! We’ve strung them all together, …..Grab some popcorn, sit back and enjoy!!!
V I D E O ..Feb2011 thru Aug2011 / Aprox 1hour 23minutes
Today Dad and Grace went to Discovery Museum for a bit -where Grace coiled like the rattlesnake and played with the mining equipment.
Then we all went to Grace’s first Swimming Lesson. A fanstatic adventure for everyone. There is a new swimming complex in Sparks and it’s first-rate. Grace has only two other students in her class, both boys aproximately age 5! LOL, no worries, Grace keeps pace!
Grace LOVES going to see her Dentist Dr. Stoker. She’s been talking about her “Dr. Appointment” all week and this morning she woke up more excited than Christmas morning.
A bonus for mom and dad: Her dentist opened an office very near our home so we don’t have to trek across town anymore. Mom was sleeping after a big night at work, so this time it was just Grace and Dad. This was Grace’s 3rd regular check-up but there was one emergency visit when some jumping on the bed frivolity turned into face into the corner of the nightstand frivolity. So her 4th trip to the dentist, and her last of age 3.
Today’s checkup started with plaque die, then a cleaning and such, then x-rays and then the last third or so was an examination with Dr. Stoker! A+, no cavities and a GREAT attitude. If you’re a dentist you should get in line to have this Grace as your patient.
What were Grace’s first words when we got in the car?: “Dad, can we go to the dentist again tomorrow?!?!”

Two Videos from the cruise, the first as we were leaving port. The 2nd many days later, last night at sea:
V I D E O: (if you’re looking for Grace, look for the tiniest kid out dancing, she’s right in the thick of it, even tough she’s only half the size of the other kids!
A great cruise with Nana/Papa Uncle Brian and of course mom and dad.
We spent the first night in Bishop, then 2nd night in San Pedro. Then a week on the Disney Cruise Ship with stops in Mexico. Coming home a night in Bishop CA. It was a wonderful vacation!
Mom is out of town on a ‘Girls Weekend” so Grace and Dad have had a robust schedule -keeping very busy.
This morning we were out early -down the road to the Quail Canyon Ranch. (near Pyramid Lake, not far from our house) This is a private cattle ranch that does a yearly fundraiser for Washoe County Conservative Candidates.
Grace can always be counted on to contribute to conservative causes, -and today she brought her dad along. There were a few candiates, but mostly people were out to enjoy a rustic breakfast and partake/witness calves being branded and castrated. Oh some music too! -even pie and ice cream!
Grace got as much attenion as anything else though, especially with her fancy shirt and very fancy cowboy boots (from the Las Vegas Rodeo) as well as her hat. It was good fun. We worked up quite an appetite and tonight will be having a big steak dinner. Thanks cows!
