The names are Dillon, 11 years old, Derek, 9 years old, and Drew (middle name is Ozzie) age 7. I also have a beautiful granddaughter named Bailey, age 8! These pictures were taken at Baileys 5th birthday party. Theyreally aren't that current.However, they still look like this except Derek now has his front teeth. They all live here in Boise so I can enjoy them all the time.
And Bill, knock it off about spring. We,who are used to 1/2 inch of snow once a year, are suffering through a new storm every night so that Tiptoe & Tex think that all I do is shovel snow!!!
Andi, I haven't met anyone who has not enjoyed TipToe & Tex
and in fact members of my A.A. group were almost as excited about their visit as I was.. Also one of my oncology nurses has been following the threads since they started because she thinks the idea was delightful. The grandkids have not met the twosome yet but they will.
Love & hugs ,
Marlys

Sleep Over!!

We had a sleep over last nite and watched T.V. til midnite. Marlys & Kim(her daughter in law)went to bed early. Marlys made peanut butter cookies and we all ate til we were stuffed. Here are some pictures.

Hi Marlys
You and your daughter-in-law were sure brave to have
a sleep-over with 5 kids. I hope Tip and Tex behaved
and played nicely with your grandkids.

I have to ask, in the pictures, who is at the top of the bed on the pillows?

Pepe!

Oh, that's my youngest child, Pepe. He is a Bichon Frese(sp?) He is 10 years old and really loves kids. ( In fact he loves anyone who comes to the door.) Here are more pictures of him. I haven't introduced him formally to the kids because I am afraid he might grab one and run outside with her/him. I plan to get pictures of the bikers today and will then send the twosome on to Laurie.
Love & hugs,
Marlys
