Feet!

I love little feet! Here are a few cute ones.

Just Random Adorable Pictures!

Vacation to Remember! - Gulf Shores, AL

We had a wonderful vacation this year with all the kids - sans Chad. We drove to Gulf Shores, Alabama. We had a condo with Erin, Scott, and Olivia. Erica and Joel were next door with the boys and Jenni and Tim and the girls were down the hall. The condos were very nice. Each girl took one evening to cook an we had some great dinners! We went out to dinner for Jenni's 30th birthday - Lambert's Throwed Rolls. The video shows our stop in Vicksburg and the dolphin cruise.
The trip would have been perfect - if Chad had been there, and if I had not been trying to do homework the whole time!

A new grandson - Elliot!

OKay - so it's only been 5 months since he was born! I've just been a little busy!
This is the video of Elliot's arrival. What a crazy day it was! Erica had set this date for months. Jenni made sure everything was good to go and she had scheduled the best nurses to care for Erica. And then there was the storm! It seemed the whole sky was falling. The L&D was full to maximum capacity - so Erica and Elliot were removed from the delivery schedule.
I got the call at 4:00 a.m. from Jenni. I knew Erica was going to be upset. But Jenni was persistent and talked the Charge Nurse into letting Erica come in as soon as there was a room available. Jenni and Erin were at our house. Jenni had arranged for the charge nurse to call us first, so we got to the hospital before Erica and Joel arrived. We got the room decorated with balloons and signs! It was really cute and Erica was very surprised!
As labors, go, it went pretty quickly and was not too bad (easy for me to say!). Erica was so sweet to allow Erin and Jenni to be present for the delivery, along with Suzanne and me. It was really special! Erin set up the delivery tray and Jenni took care of Elliot after he was born.
Now for Elliot! He is really a special little guy! I have never seen a baby that is as happy as he. He smiles most of the time and he is really cuddely.
What a great day for our family - 6 grandchildren. Whew!

My new Flip Video

Danny gave me a Flip Video camera for my birthday. (Well, he actually gave me a gift certificate so I could personalize it and order it online). I finally got it and had a chance to use it tonight when we took Olivia to Bass Pro Shop after we ate dinner at CiCi's. I think I am really going to enjoy this camera!

Happy Birthday - Olivia - 3 yrs. old!!

We kept our guests in the dog crate!




We had a great weekend. Olivia's party was on Saturday. Cilla and Michael stayed at our house with Caroline and Catherine. We really enjoyed having them and they were perfect! There must have been 100 kids at Olivia's party - not really, but it seemed like it. It was a wonderful day, but a little bit hot. The kids are all so cute and they are growing so fast! I can't believe we will be adding another one into the mix pretty soon!

Meet My Grandchildren!

Meet Emily Grace - daughter of Jenni and Tim. Emily is almost 8 years old (birthday June 17). She is in 2nd grade and does very well in school. She loves to read and she also loves math. She writes great stories and is very imaginative and creative!

Emily is the oldest of my grandchildren and she has just grown up way too fast! She is a beautiful, loving little girl, but sometimes a little stubborn (I don't know where she gets that trait!).

Emily and her sister, Macey, are best friends and do most everything together. They both take gymnastics and they are doing a great job!

I love to spend time with Emily! She loves to swim, go shopping, go to movies and do all GIRL things!
