I really enjoy generation photos! We were able to go and visit Marc’s Grandmother while she is in town staying with Marc’s Dad. She is from Michoacan, Mexico. She comes every few years, but it had been a while since the children had seen her last. I think it was before Carson was born and Audrey and Gracie were pretty little (they don’t remember). Before we went over to visit, we told the children that they would be seeing their great-grandma from Mexico and that she didn’t speak any english. Gracie’s reply was “not even one little word?”. Although they couldn’t communicate through word, I think the children had a good time seeing their great-grandmother. Grandpa’s offering of mexican bread didn’t hurt the visit either.
I can’t believe that my sweetie girl is 9 years old today! She is growing into such a lovely young lady, everything a mother loves in a daughter. She is friendly, kind, helpful, intelligent, funny, beautiful, talented, faithful, and strong. I hope you have a wonderful day today Audrey. We love you!!
Carson (Tar-Tar) and his partner in crime (aka Friend) Chris (Tiss) have some very curious adventures together. I thought I would share them upon occasion. The names “Tiss” and “Tar-Tar” are the cute mispronunciations of a 3 and 2 year old.
The Crime….. (They quietly found my bag of shredded papers that had not been taken out to the trash and decided to have a little fun).
The Punishment….. (Take out the recycle trash).
Yes, it has been three months that I have lost in blogging world. Some fault of my own, but some not. Our computer went on the brink back in October, crashed in November and we got a new one in December. In the meantime we had Sophia’s baby blessing, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Gracie’s 7th birthday, Christmas, New Year’s, a wedding anniversary, and new carpet installed, which added to the lack of computer access. So there you have it. I don’t know what to write about now since all that stuff is no longer new and exciting, but Marc keeps asking me when I’m going to post again. I figured the world’s end is quickly approaching since the Arizona Cardinals won the NFC Championship and are going to the Super Bowl so I better put up a new post quick!!
I’ll let you all in on the latest “Gracieism”. The other night at dinner Gracie said “You know King Doctor Martian Lootion? Well, I don’t know how to say it, but he had a dream on his birthday.” Thank Heaven for little children they can be hilarious!!! I can always count on her for a good laugh.
Oh, I made my first Craigslist purchase today, my brother Ryan would be proud (he purchased all the furnishings for his new house along with window treatments and flooring from Craigslist- yes, he is single). It is a Bumbo and Sophia loves it. I’ve put a picture up so you can see how awesome these things are if you are not familiar with them.
Sorry this post is so random and weird, I am very ill with a wicked cold and very foggy. At least you don’t have to see Yoga, Oga anymore.
