The Big 5-0 on 10-10-10
I honestly cannot believe I am 50 years old! 50! Do you know how old that is? WOW!
AnnDee decided I needed a surprise birthday party which was also a funeral. The house was decorated with black balloons, black streamers, and complete with a tombstone birthday cake and crying guests. There were so many friends and family members there--I am very overwhelmed and feel extremely blessed. I was VERY surprised!
Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being a part of my life!
I am so blessed!

The FINAL Countdown is on!
Almost 2 years ago, I made this chart in the hope that it would help time to go a little faster while Ian was gone on his mission to Brazil. Each month as fast sunday came, our family would take turns crossing off the month.
Yesterday, Lyndsie, Micah and I each took a swipe at the last month of the chart. Do you have any idea what a great feeling that was?
The chart is now complete, every month meticuliously crossed off. In 3 weeks I board a plane to Brazil to see my son who I haven't seen for 2 years!
Do you know how long 2 years is?
And NO it did not go fast!!

Happy Birthday, Lennis!
Yes, it's true. Lennis turned 50 recently. We had a special family birthday dinner for him--fried chicken, his favorite!
Pup, Lennis and Eli. I love this picture because this is their most natural state...pup sitting next to Lennis, Lennis with his camera, and Eli investigating stuff!
Gotta love Code's hat! I LOVE these two!

Thoughts on Being a Grandma
I turn 50 years old this year, which is only fitting since I am now a Grandma!
One of the most amazing things ever was watching as my firstborn grew a new life within her, and became a mother, and Devon became a father. Elijah, what a gift from God!
And this little man grew.....
...and he began to crawl...
...and he began to smile...
...and he began to laugh...
...and he began to crawl...
...and daily he discovers the wonders of God's creations...
...and now he walks...
...and brings unspeakable joy to his Grammy!
Yep, being Grammy is just about the best thing EVER!
