Happy Birthday JoJo

We got all the Grandkids together for a picture for JoJo's Birthday.
Burgandi was asleep the hole time and Vince fell asleep right before we took this picture.

Happy Birthday JoJo.

Thanksgiving Good Times

Devin and Lynette spent Thanksgiving here and we had lots of plans for when they arrived. We watched movies and football, played games, ate delicious meals, toured Farrel Ross's workshop/museum, and went and shot the guns.

We have quite an arsenal of weaponry. I suggest nobody attempt to break and enter the Coates house at night.

Decorations?... or targets?

Justin shooting clay pigeons.

Everyone gathered around the targets to see how they did. Colleen wins the sharpshooter award. She shot the rifle very accurately.

Kandice shooting the rifle.

Devin reloading the .22 pistol.

Trying to get a Smile!

I'm going to get a smile.
Getting there...

Almost...

There it is.

Shy and Vince

Shy loves holding Vince and Burgandi. She's going to be a great mom someday.

Sippee Cup.

Kandice was giving Vince his rice cereal and he grabbed the sippee cup and stared to hold it all by himself. He wants to be a big boy real bad.

Standing Up!

Vince thinks it fun to stand up (not that he can by himself). When we try to sit him down he stays straight so we basically just lay him down.

Moving Around

This is how Vince likes to move around when he is playing.

It's very cute!

Books are for eating!

Vince's new favorite thing is to put everything in his mouth. This book is just right for him. After reading it he decided to eat it.

Fun with Lance

Lance has lots of fun with Vince.
