I LOOKED OUT THE WINDOW AND WHAT DID I SEE?

A BEAUTIFUL SPRING DAY GETTING AWAY FROM ME-

TIME HAS BROUGHT ME SUCH AN ODD SURPRISE

I'M GETTING OLDER RIGHT BEFORE MY EYES!!

I HAVE HEARD IT SAID FROM FRIENDS AND STRANGERS BOTH-

HOW QUICKLY TIME FLY'S- HOW FAST OUR BABIES GROW

I KNOW NOW THAT IT'S TRUE

I HOPE IT'S NOT TOO LATE

NOW LET'S GO OUTSIDE AND MAKE THE MOST OF THIS DAY!

boom pow!

ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER RATTLESNAKE

Yes, we face the danger of a rattlesnake at our door, every spring. This one was at our neighbors front door.  Jay held it down, while Greg chopped off its head. 
Hunters, they are. Hunt  they do. Men. Real live hunting men. They hunt. Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

SHE WAS UGLIER THAN I THOUGHT...

Ya, the Easter bunny came. But, boy was she UGLY!

(So ugly, we wanted to keep her.)

An awesome visit!

This is my beautiful Grandma Chesley. I feel quite privileged to have had the opportunity to have her stay with us. She has a sister who lives here in the Phoenix area, and came to stay with her for a few weeks. Before grandma went home, she was able to stay with me for a couple of days. It was truly a treat. She was a wonderful guest. Not enough trouble. I was prepared to really pamper her, but she just connected with my kids and with me. How many kids get to really connect with their great-grandparents? Austin, I must say, was a total gentleman. I was so proud of him. He treated her with such respect. She even helped him practice the piano. She was, after all, my piano teacher when I was young. I told her she was a great teacher, I was a poor student. Her, taking the time to teach me, was awesome, and I love her for it.

 

 She also had quite the connection with Ty. I think he could see his own grandma in her, and absolutely loved her. She really showed us she has some giddy-up left in her. She pushed him on the swing, and went to watch Ty and Lauren at their tumbling class. She slept with Maddi, and had a good talk with her too. I loved it!

This is her sister, Marion. Adorable, right? She is an awesome lady too!   Thank you, grandma, for coming to stay. And a HUGE thank you for giving me my mom!!!  My mom is the most wonderful woman on the planet.  No lie. She is. And, I am indebted to you for having her!

I hope I inherited some of her genes. She is 85 and, no lie, I have more wrinkles than she does!! She is amazing. I hope she knows how much we enjoyed having her around!

LOVE YOU!!
