Kayla and the Scharpf Cats

It was Lily's Birthday Party. Kayla found the cats in Elijah's room and bedded down with them as she created friendships. One problem here ..... isn't Kayla allergic to cats?

Baby Ava

Ava in her first home in Tulsa Oklahoma. Ava moved from Oklahoma to North Carolina soon after this picture was taken.

The Animals

Each kid picked out the animal they wanted to be. Can you name the animals? Can you name the cousin?

Sydney and Nigel at the Park

Lily's Innocent Addiction

Can you see the glazed over eyes? I was all around Lily with my camera, and she was so into her game she did not even know I was there. What do you think Lily was playing?

Thank you for taking us to the Cheesecake Factory

......:we had a lot of fun. You are the best Nana and Papa in the world. We love you very, very, very much, From Elijah.

Elijah often does his art in 3-dimension made with many different objects. Here is a couple samples of Elijah's paper quillin. The card was a thank you note and the flower was a hanging ornament at Christmas time. 2008 when Elijah was 10 years ole.

Thank you for the Dinner ..... from Rosemary

I probably have received the most art from the Scharpf children .... but much of it was larger or in 3-D so it is not scanned for this site. But here is Rosie's art and thank you note from October, 2008 when she was six. Isn't it beautiful!

Dear Nana & Pops .... I like your Hot Tub

Here are some sample collections of Ava's art when she was age four and perhaps five. Ava was 'almost' born with pencil and colors and paper in her hand. You can click on to make larger to read her self expressed letter to us when she was four.

So now we need more art from other Grandchildren. Come help me out.

Kayla Tells A Delicious Story

At Lily's My Little Pet Shop party, Kayla tells a story of her favorite Little Pet Shop Character. It was an 'exclusive' Bat who was named Kayla. Everyone loved Kayla's story. Who can remember the details of the story? Fill in the blanks on the comment spot. Or better yet, Kayla, would you tell us the story again ..... please ........

Or who is showing off their play room. Under the art is the prize Country Critters Land.

They can do the Charleston when Pops and Nana have trouble moving or wiggling. Way to go, Kayla, Sydney, Rosie, Ava and Carson!

The Collier Dance at Christmas Time

Jib Jab has some fun clips on their website to visit play with and buy. This is one that Sommer Created at Christmas Time.

Our Texas Little Lady

I wonder if Sydney can tell us who her friend is......

And what kind of a trick she is playing on the back of Nana's couch.

Finally, here is the pretty lady taken from Papa's Blackberry.
