Turkey Coma


I swear the food we eat on Thanksgiving is to die for. Why do we take days to get it all ready and minutes to devour it? Kelsey, Joe and Chance came over for leftovers. Brittany cut Chance's hair today and boy is he handsome. I asked him if he was going to see Grammy, Pappa, and JuJu. He said Livy to Nanna. Such a smart,polite kid. Here is a pic of his new do.

Happy Turkey Day

Happy Thanksgiving to you all. Whoever said "Grandkids are your reward for not killing your kids" was right. We've got almost 8 grandkids. Kelsey called me and said Chance pooped in the potty. I laughed and told her I'll bet she never thought she'd get excited over her child doing the #2. I'm grateful for sleep when it comes. They used to call my mom Snotty Lottie when she was young, because her nose always ran. They should call me Auntsy Ann because I can't stop fidgeting and thinking of stupid projects to do in the middle of the night. Yes, they are stupid when it's 1:30 in the am and I want to go in and start the quilt I put on today or start decorating for Thanksgiving. Maybe I'll do both. I'm thankful for family, friends, and the Lord, who has such great wisdom in all things.

Stop the Insanity!

Ok, this is bad. I may have to delete my blog. It's worse than my obsession with changing the color of my walls constantly. It's worse than my continually moving furniture, changing clothes umpteen(alot) times a day because they don't feel or look right. Now, I think of everyone elses blogs and how cute they are or the color or content of mine doesn't look right. So if you happen to look at my blog and it's changed, then you will know I'm in the insanity mode. I've been like this all my life. I can't sleep, so I'll get up and rearrange furniture. Blair is blown away when he gets up and his bed has been moved in the middle of the night. He is a sound sleeper. Before I was married, Mom broke her little toe when she got up in the night, and forgot I had moved the living room around. She stubbed her toe on the leg of a chair I had moved. Our baby grand piano is a piece of cake to move. Insane for now...but working on it, I'll leave my blog like it is.. I don't know, maybe the font should be a differernt color. Ok, ok the font is fine......for now.

Twins


Well it happened! Blair and I made it to see Jen and Brandon's twins born on election day. Something good came out of the day in spite of the election. Reese(girl ) was 5lbs 12 ozs and Deacon(boy) was 4lbs14 ozs. Everyone is doing fine and that brings our grandchildren total to 7. In about 3 weeks we will welcome a little girl to Becky and Jareds family. Oh what joy we are experiencing.

babies-babies

Blair and I jumped in our cars and headed to Boise. We were hoping to make it this time for the new arrivals. Jenny is in labor with our precious twins, so we made it. Last time, she had Maili in a half hour, so we're hoping for a little longer with twins. Everyone should have babies as easy as Jen. Maybe not quite that easy but Becky (daughter n law) is so miserable with her pregnancy and it was 26 hours to delivery Aralynn, who was suppose to be a boy. Catch ya later with an update.

Spiderman


How's this for cute? I opened the door and there he was holding his Elmo bucket with mom and dad hiding in the background. He knew he was the hit of the night. What a kid.

Having to say something of some substance everyone can read is scary. I've been busy doing what I can to stay busy. Just waiting to get THE phone call to go to Boise for Jen and Brandon's arrival of their twins. Pam is going to have to keep me centered , focused or whatever so I can be a help not a pain in their butts. Pam is so focused on what needs to be done and behold, it gets done. I just sort of run in circles and make more work for everyone. I've been making quilts for the grandbabies. Brittany had a pieced a levi quilt that I took apart and made smaller so her nieces and nephews could each have a quilt. I made journals for babies and a wedding one for Brittanys friend who is getting married. They are fun and fast. See ya later!
