By the time I send this along it should be just about August 14th! We hope you have a great day, Theresa!!
I hope we can all gather on Sunday, August 31st, to celebrate the August birthdays!!
Kevin, we'll be in Utah, but hope your day is full of whatever pleasures you can conjur up.
Nathaniel, if I am correct you are 6 years old this year!! Wow!! We hope you have a very special and happy day!
Ryan (Webb's son) also has a birthday this week, too.
AND... let's not forget Dunc, Jr. who follows up at the end of the month.

CAMERA SHY?!?!?
I am thinking it is funny that the (Kevin) Taylor family is so shy . . . at what age does this predicament begin? And when... exactly... does it end?
Having spent some quality time with the (Chris) Taylor family members I realize it has not hit them yet. They are very good at posing for the cameras that are ever in their way!!
Andrea has several types running and takes some of the loveliest photos ever.
The (Greg) Baker family almost always has some great shots, too, and mostly sunny faces clowning around at the time.
Then take the (Craig) Bingham family and the entire family is photo shy, except perhaps for the dog...
SO, when is it, that folks become so camera shy?
Any thoughts about this, anyone???

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CATHLEEN!!!
This blog is for you . . .
Wherever you are - hiding in a box, a closet, a huge cubby or that fantastic new kitchen of yours - we hope you have a wonderful birthday all day long!!
I hope your girls/guys are able to make you a wonderful birthday cake and that you'll enjoy this year beginning almost right away!
I'm also happy to hear your parents will be living in Pennsylvania. Grandparents on the east coast sounds pretty grand to me!
Your gift is in my car and will be on it's way as soon as I find your new address...
Have a wonderful day. We all love and miss you so very much!! J.

A NEW MONTH!! Happy Birthday, Draper...
We will be celebrating lots of birthdays this month ~ perhaps celebrating isn't the right word, however.
July flew by with lots of family around and visiting so we have been kept very busy and away from the computers quite a bit.
So much has happened I'm sure I'll forget something or someone, but here goes!
The Binghams' sent Dray along before their drive to Carlsbad for their annual week of camping. This has become a routine no one wishes to miss ... so Riley & Megan flew out and stayed three nights at the campsite, too. Four Bingham guys out of five wasn't too bad, right?
Megan, 3-4 months pregnant, isn't showing at all, YET! We hope to learn the sex of this baby "Schming" while we are in Utah later this month!
Landon finally got his call into the Coast Guard and enters basic training in Cape May, NJ, on August 19th! "Way to go, Landon!"
Collin finished his 1st year of college - and made nice with girl/pal Breanna while in CA. He'll be off on a mission next April when he turns nineteen!
Kate and Draper had a great time together at Carlsbad. I guess having the whole outdoors to "play" in kept them very busy and occupied. Kate and Dray are definitely growing UP!!!
Connor saw the "Dark Knight" while in Carlsbad and offered to tell me all about it. Thanks, Connor, but I sat through the whole 2 1/2 hours myself!!
Greg & Cathleen disappeared from all blogs as they bought and sold their home(s) and had to move in 2 weeks. Ever done something like this with 8 kids?! YIKES!!! We hope they have survived this move...
Sydney got a "new do" and looks much better with her hair short and in a bob.
Andrea and their three came to visit for 3 weeks (excluding weekends) and we have done the OC Fair ~ Seth and their four joined us for the afternoon ~ and also the Ringling Bros/Barnum and Bailey Circus in one week.
It is always nice to have the young ones around and these kiddies are no exception!
Andrea is running in the NYC Marathon on Nov 2nd.
Poppy is surviving pretty well, all things condidered. I only wish we had the VA Bakers around, too!
As I said it has been a busy time and hopefully August will settle down a little bit for those of you in the 'throes' of the BIG move.
We'll be in Park City Utah from Aug 15th - 27th - wish Tory could be there then!!
Also heard that the Cildermans(Cathleen's mom & dad) are moving to Pennsylvania immediately, too!! Great news for Cath, Greg & family!! Lots of room for visiting grandparents who will be quite close by!
Hello to everyone . . . much love, too!! xoxoxo Grammy
