Happy Birthday to Jessica, then Dawney last week. Too manyh things happened - me, in yard doing flowers endlessly. Didn't even know I had missed any birthdays. but, anyway, I hope you both had wonderful birthdays. I love you both.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO HEATHER!

Here is Heather. Today is her birthday. I wish her a most happy one. I remember when I first met Heather . . she walked into my house and said, "Oh, you have a piano.". She walked over to it, sat down, and played a little diddy. She spoke to me. We talked as if we had known each other for years. And now I will have years to get to know her. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HEATHER. WE LOVE YOU!!

Week of the Stars!

This week Tanner had to do a performance in class for choir. You could do any sort of talent - sing, skit, dance, whatever. I encouraged Tanner to sing this song that he and Daniel love, and to my surprise, he did! He got two of his friends to do the song with him. They had never heard the song before. This video is of them after 1 hour of practice. It is a medley of songs that pay tribute to John Williams and his many compositions. Enjoy!

Race Results are In!!

Cruise....Confessions

We had a fabulous time on our Mexican Cruise!!

I personally enjoyed ALL aspects and every moment. I enjoyed them so much that I hardly took any pictures, but I will share what I have.
I will also share 2 shocking confessions!
#1 - Today is Wednesday....the last shower I took was on the cruise! I just can't find the time!
#2 - I proudly and excitedly got on the scale to see IF I had gained any weight on the cruise, which I doubted, or at least maybe only one pound. As it turned out....I gained 7 pounds!! Our room was on floor #2. We ate on floor #11 and ran the track on floor #12. I hardly ever used the elevator; I was always climbing the stairs. That, plus running about 28 miles on the ship, I thought I would have equaled the value of how much food I ate. Well, I guess that showed just HOW much food I ate. I wouldn't change a thing!! How often can you go to a restaurant and order 3 main dishes and 4 desserts and eat a plate full of bread?? This morning I weighed myself and I have now lost ALL my 7 pounds of cruise weight. I do hope to shower later today.

Ok this might be Monday nights dinner. On the way, we ran into these Scottish men! Nana asked them to show us what they wore under their skirts. I turned my head away. That same night at our dinner table.

This is where we ate every night. (Ate, and ate and ate.)

Really, the first non-asked for smile on the cruise. He was so happy to have accomplished this "hard" thing! We were waiting here for the wheelchair guy to come and escort us off the boat.

Sunday afternoon at my house. Resting.

I tried to move this picture up with the others, but it would not move. It wants to finish off this post!
