Princess Jacqualine Rex Robbins

Saturday, May 1, 2010
Jax arrived at the Salt Lake Airport from Missouri. She was born March 2, 2010 and joined her master, Greg at eight weeks old. Happy Day, she was better than Greg had expected.


















Grandpa and Grandma welcomed her with a CAR SEAT. She loves it and loves going everywhere with Greg.



















Jax made her first road trip to the Erickson home for Morgan and Greg's Indiana Jones Birthday Party. The road trip continued on to the Sunday May Celebrations at Grandma and Grandpas. She was a good traveler and super entertainment for the grandchildren. Dad and daughter were tired at the end of the successful weekend.

Cannon Rigby Copeland's Blessing Day

Cannon Rigby Copeland
Born March 1, 2010
Son of Kent and Natalie
Brother of Ethan and Ella
Blessed April 25, 2010
We Love You
Grandpa and Grandma Robbins


Cannon's blessing day was beautiful. He is a sweet peaceful baby bringing love to his eternal family. Kent gave him a choice blessing from a righteous father. Natalie served a breathtaking dinner at the Martins back yard. The day was perfect with food, fun and friends. It will be a long lasting memory.



One of my treasures is holding precious grandbabies.
This poem by Carol Lynn Pearson expresses my feelings.


Day-Old Child


My day-old child lay in my arms, with my lips against his ear.

I whispered strongly, "How I wish -- I wish that you could hear.


I've a hundred wonderful things to say ( A tiny cough and a nod),

Hurry, hurry, hurry and grow so I can tell you about God."


My day-old baby's mouth was still and my words only tickled his ear.

But a kind of light passed through his eyes, and I saw this thought appear;


"How I wish I had a voice and words; I've a hundred things to say.

Before I forget I'd tell you of God -- I left Him yesterday.

Washington Trip

SATURDAY


Saturday was a power packed day starting with a Primary Activity and Natalie is the Primary President. The theme was the Articles of Faith. I attended a station. Those children have a good understanding
of the Articles of Faith. The activity included a tasty sack lunch and much needed because we had to be to Ethan's basketball game 30 miles away in Yakima.





Ethan is an outstanding basketball player (that might be because he plays basketball 24/7 at home. Inside and outside.) It is fun to watch he tricks and baskets. He works very hard and Kent is an excellent coach.





Ethan made signs for Ella, Ryker and Kate to hold during the game.

The rest of Saturday was filled with shopping, lunch, Benjamin Andersons
birthday party and a relaxing swim at the motel (The Best Western)



The big surprise at the pool was Camille and family arrived for the baby blessing. Natalie and Camille have a deep friendship and they support each other 110%. Sunday morning we all met at the hotel for Continental Breakfast. It was the beginning of a special day, Cannon's blessing day.
