The first few times it happened, Payton cried and when asked what was wrong said "Kinsley is making her annoying face." Coming home from a long weekend of skiing a couple of weeks ago, Payton http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/5561?from=rss Alice http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/5561#Comments http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/5561 Sun, 15 Feb 2009 14:06:45 GMT  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qs_a98AySNk   http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/5545?from=rss Alice http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/5545#Comments http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/5545 Tue, 10 Feb 2009 13:27:11 GMT   Many of you have already received this email that has been around the past couple of weeks but it's a good reminder.  1.

She was eating a cheese crisp last night and her dad said "eat one more piece." Two bites into that piece, she got her Bible, open it, and said: “Dad, it says right here that I’m full.” http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/5115?from=rss Alice http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/5115#Comments http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/5115 Sun, 19 Oct 2008 06:19:57 GMT Alicia and Keith have a bachelor next-door neighbor whom they have "adopted". He loves their children and they adore him. Mitch (or "Stitch" as Kinsley, age 3, called him at first) was at their house for dinner last week. Payton (age 6) asked him "Mitch, why don't you go to church?" Mitch laughed. http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/5081?from=rss Alice http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/5081#Comments http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/5081 Sun, 05 Oct 2008 07:13:28 GMT My friend Sue Dismore and I spent 5 days in Lincoln City last week. I met Sue in 1958 when we were sorority sisters at Butler University in Indianapolis. She moved to California and I moved to Arizona after we graduated from Butler. We have kept in touch and after 50 years, we now live 20 minutes http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/4817?from=rss Alice http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/4817#Comments http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/4817 Sun, 10 Aug 2008 08:32:20 GMT    Click below for a beautiful story about the love of a mother and father. This takes about five minutes but it will touch your heart.   http://www.ignitermedia.com/products/iv/singles/570/99-Balloons           http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/4430?from=rss Alice http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/4430#Comments http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/4430 Mon, 07 Jul 2008 18:47:03 GMT I had a glorious 4th of July. Keith worked all day, Payton and Kinsley swam most of day, Logan spent the weekend with his mom and Alicia and I girl-bonded by shopping several hours at the outlet mall. We had dinner with the Dart neighbors next door and then headed down the river with them to watch http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/4408?from=rss Alice http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/4408#Comments http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/4408 Sat, 05 Jul 2008 12:06:21 GMT Kinsley (age 3) was trying to get past her mom the other day and asked her to move. Alicia asked "what's the magic word?" Kinsley said "abracadabra." Although she has the best manners for a three-year old that a grandma has ever seen, I guess no one ever told her the real magic word. http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/4369?from=rss Alice http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/4369#Comments http://www.portlandhomesite.net/aswartz/Posts/4369 Thu, 26 Jun 2008 06:39:39 GMT
