I've Been Tagged Twice!

Hello everyone. In the past week, I have been tagged twice by my bloggy friends.

The first challenge came from my friend Jean at The Daisy Chain~ http://onedaisychain.blogspot.com/

I am to open my photo folders to the sixth folder of pictures. Then I am to choose the sixth picture from the folder and post it on my blog with a description of the photo.


This picture was taken in October of last year of two of my little grandsons. The little guy with the cap on backwards is Jared and he is three years old. He is wearing his Montreal Canadians hockey jersey which had been a Christmas present from Hubby and me. Why Montreal Canadians, you ask? Because their father is a Canadians fan! If Hubby had had his way, it would have been a Detroit Red Wings jersey, which is Hubby's favourite team!

Jared's brother Brent is sitting next to him, and he is five years old. That day they had come for a visit with their Daddy, my son Jeff. The boys were watching cartoons in the den which used to be my son Jordan's room. They were watching cartoons and having a snack which is why Jared has a dirty face. *smile* Brent is holding two of my weights {which I can't use at the present time} with his friend Roby, the yellow robot, sitting beside him on the couch. Roby is a robot which was a Christmas gift to my son Jordan from his brother Joel, once upon a time.
The boys love to play with the robot and they take turns playing with him. Roby has been known to be the cause of a squabble every now and then too. This robot eats your money and the little guys love to play with him! You can't tell from the picture but these two little guys have the longest eyelashes! I think they're both gorgeous little men and they make my world a happier place!

Now, I'm supposed to tag six of my bloggy friends. I usually don't break the rules, but I hope you will forgive me Jean if I don't tag anyone. However, if any of my friends would like to participate then I would love to know about it.

The second challenge came from my friend Melly at His Pink Princess~ http://hispinkprincessmeli.blogspot.com/ over in Aussie Land.
