Here is a couple more pictures of Madi. Tina says that Madi's pictures look just like my baby pictures. Let's hope that if that is true that she grows out of it!!!!!



I hope that everyone enjoyed their Easter. I certainly did. It was great having the grandkids over, but my smallest granddaughter that is in CA didn't get to be with us. I'm posting some of her Easter pictures so that we can all share them. Nancy, if you read this I'd love to post some of Brayden's Easter pictures also. Madi is a very beautiful little girl. Even if it is the grandmother in me talking!!!!

I know that all of you have heard me talk about Nancy, my friend and co-worker in MN. Well this morning she sent me a picture of her son Matt & grandson Brayden. I am putting their pictures on the blog so that you can see them. They are great looking guys. And we all love babies. Brayden is about Madi's age. I think Nancy enjoys being a grandmother as much as I do.

Nancy and her husband Jeff take a lot of neat trips, we will have to see if we can't get some pictures and post them. Could give us all ideas for a vacation. I don't know how Nancy comes up with all these wonderful vacation rental homes, but she does !! Nancy also does a girls trip every year. Just her and her girlfriends. Like Caroline, Bonnie and I do, except we go every 3 months, well, it now is about every 6 months. We need to get going girls and set a weekend up. I think a road trip for a weekend would be fun, what do you girls think ? And more over who cares as long as it is in a place that serves " Adult Beverages"....Nancy taught me that lingo.....

One more thing about Nancy, all of you know about the Cancer relay for life walk that I am doing, well it is Nancy's father in law that I am walking in Honor of, and she has helped me to get lots of donations in his Honoe. Thanks Nancy!!!

I have created this Blog so that our family can stay caught up on everything going on with each other. We are all over the place. Bubba & Madi in California and Bonnie, Wayne & their family in Texas. The rest of us in Missouri, and even Auntie Caroline is going to post pictures....right Auntie Caroline???? This way we can all stay up with what is happening.

Please be patient, I'm just learning this and bound to make mistakes. As all of you will as you post to it. And I want all of you to post. Keep us up to date on all your activities.

I have pictures of Madi that I just received and some of Seth in his dress blues, some of Ashley in her cheerleading uniform, and some of Alec in his basketball uniform, and of Cole with Carl . They are all really cute. And I'm not just being a NANA!!!

Please, all of you use this blog to post things that are interesting, funny, sad, or just plain silly.

One last note before I leave, I have a couple sad things to report to each of you. 1. John is still taking treatments for his cancer. He is holding his own pretty good for his age. He has several weeks of treatment left. Jean seems to be doing ok. 2. Uncle Bob has lost the site in his left eye. This could be for good, or it may restore itself. Auntie Caroline is worried about him. I ask all of you to keep them in your prayers.

And the good news is that the Cattle Company has seven calves. And more to come. I will try to post pictures later.

All of you know that I love you and USE THIS BLOG!!!!!
