The Smith Scoop

Scout Preston and Papa Preston

 Just last night Scout was calling me Tori Townsend.  I explained the whole name change thing and then she declares that when she gets married she's marrying Papa.  Then the next she will marry is Daddy.  Pretty sweet!

These pics are from a couple weeks back, but we just saw Mimi and Papa yesterday.  Pearl Wood, "Grandma Pearl", Preston's sweet mama passed away Sunday and her service was Wednesday.  She was precious!  When I was in college in Canyon I had the privilege of meeting in her home on Wednesday and Sunday.

These guys love this guy...well we do too!

 Papa is always in a chair and Scout especially just piles in with him.  She tells him who knows what all and he just listens and carries on with her.  This past time Reno climbed in his lap and fell asleep.

Of course they love their Mimi too!

 Now Mimi on the other hand, always has a dance to teach the kiddos or some fun big kid thing.  Mimi's summer camp has sort of dwindled out, but now that Scout is old enough I think we should resume.  I feel confident that even Summer will attend.  lol

Siblings......Don, Janey, and Patsy.

 I usually forget to get a pic when they are together .  I think Hazel and Henry did great.  From what I hear and remember, these three are very much like them.

Us!

You can see that by our turn Reno was done for on the picture taking.  Not our best, but it is what it is!  

Do you see our fireplace insert?  I'm pretty excited about it.  It's just like a wood stove except in the fireplace, complete with an electric blower to distribute the heat.  Thanks Riley Smith, I love it and can't wait to use it all next winter.
