Mortons in May Spring 2012 |
|
My Mom and Sister try hard to keep me well
connected to the family. Being 3 hours away means I miss a lot of
family happenings. Now that we have 1-year old Brodie, I miss a
LOT. That boy is active! He is also changing so
fast. Here are some pictures they've shared with me this spring, and
mostly in the month of May.
BTW - In case you are not familiar with our family terms: Brodie is often called by his initials BKB (Brodie Keith Bloomer), and my Mom is called BG (Brown Granny - because she's Cherokee and has a tan complexion.) I didn't want to lose my non-Morton readers here! |

This was taken at Christmas, I don't think he liked the joke. | BKB ready for his TV debut |
He's a bit of a climber/escape artist. Here he dreams of freedom while his Mom plays spotter. |
|
Only a boy would pick up a toy and think, "I wonder if this would fit over my head." He's all boy! |
|
Boy meets avocado | On May 3, while I was freezing in New Orleans at Jazz Fest, my folks woke up to a white yard in Westville. That's the latest snow we remember. |
Mom calls this, "High Tech Rednecks" as Grandpa & Brodie play on the iPad | |
BG loves sugar so she makes sure Brodie gets all of it he wants. Here he makes the most of a chocolate sucker. |
On May 20th, when the storms that produced the devastating tornado in Moore reached Westville, this was where Dad could be found. He has always done this. |
Taken by a Westville Storm Spotter, this was the tornado that hit Westville that night. I'm told it didn't do much damage there. |
Bloomer family pictures. Brodie wasn't feeling good that day but you
can't tell it by the beautiful pictures! |
Family outing to the Stilwell Strawberry Festival, also included BG and several of Keith's family. |
I love that hat! (A lot more than he does, that's for sure!) |
While they waited for the 5K to end, they set Brodie up to do a mini-race of his own. Here he crosses the finish line in joy. |
With his proud Pa, Keith's dad. |
How's the view from 7 feet in the air Brodie?!!
|
The following day was Mother's Day so the family went to the Renaissance Fair in Muskogee. Brodie is really checking out this goat. They have a bunch of goats at home, but you never can be too careful. |
