We celebrated the birth of our 26th grandchild in August. Amy and Nick welcomed Lorrena Camille (Lorren) to their family. What fun it was to bring Kendra (18 mo.) to the hospital to see her new sister.
I love to capture the moment and this one was truly precious....Kendra just couldn't get enough of holding her newest toy...............................'Lo-Lo'
Then I had a spur of the moment trip to Portland and a few days with Jeff and Katie. What fun...but I was sad that Dad couldn't come too. I got to see Jacob's football practice and Jeff as his coach. Those Conover boys are all the same on the field.....intense! Also I had so much fun sketching Jacob and Sami....they were amazing to sit for me. Now I want to draw all my grandchildren.
After Portland I just had to run to Elko and visit Annie and her family. Here are my next two subjects for drawings. Ben and Conner are not so willing to sit still so I took a million (of course) pictures to choose my subject from.
Now this is truly a picture for a baby magazine.....Conner just can't quit smiling and those big blue eyes......wow! Brett and Annie are busy with these little boys (and Madi and Brooke)
Ray and I are preparing to go on a mission..........hopefully turning in papers the first of the year if things go well. We are excited and working hard to get the house and ourselves ready. 
What fun pictures! Thanks for the updates...such cute grandkids. I am glad to see things are going well. So, I want to see some of these sketches when you are done! I think it's a great idea. Can I add Cody to the list:) We love and miss you tons! Roxanne.
