Hello there!

Its been a long time since I've posted. Time goes by so fast, most of it is taken up by daily needs and well just plain not being a good steward of the precious gift of TIME.

I've been keeping the babies, which by the way are not babies anymore but toddlers! My daughter finished cosmetology school and is now a licensed cosmetologist! My other daughter who's a cosmetologist finished her schooling to be a cosmetology instructor and will be taking some courses this coming spring.

During all this babysitting and schooling...we bought a hairsalon! Its small and a great place to get the girls started on their own. They worked hard in remodeling it, I'll try and post some before and after pictures. So now with all their hard work comes "that HAIR shop" ready for business. I am proud of them. I thank the Lord that he provided us with all that was needed to see this vision come through...without Him nothing could have been possible. We are soooo blessed!!

BEFORE

AFTER

So being that today is Christmas Day and knowing that the main reason we celebrate is because of Jesus, I thank Him for all the multiple blessings he has graced me with. My cup runneth over!

To all of you from all of us ... MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Anniversary....

Today is our 32nd Wedding Anniversary!!

God has blessed us so much.

We have wonderful children and grandchildren, what could one ask more of?!

Thank you Lord!!

Why I've been MIA

Wow, its been a super long time since I've posted! I've been busy with babies and all around life. :O) Here's some pics of the babies....

Our big brown eyed sweet granddaughter. She's ONE now!

Just plain SWEET!

Our sweet "keep you on your toes" grandson!! He is so adorable and funny.

ummm....wonder if I can climb in my bowl and eat like you?

Hey, this is my corn! LOL

It was so much fun watching the grandbabies "feeding" and playing with the goats.

Sometimes life has a way of keeping us so busy and that we tend to pass by the many blessing God showers us daily.

What an awesome God we serve!!

Here's a picture of my sister-in-laws birthday cake my daughter made for her.

The party had a retro/peace theme to it going along with her "era"! We had a wonderful time, got to see alot of family we don't get to see often. Lots of laughter and of course eating!

And for VALENTINES DAY.....

we celebrated our grandsons 1st birthday!!

Our Valentine Baby!

and mommy

Here's a picture of his birthday cake also made by my daughter.

Its not to visible but that tiny little brown spot sitting on the top layer of the cake is Curious George and his name was spelled out with candles on the bottom layer.... it was to cute, just not a close up picture. Wish I had a better/closer picture to show.

We went to my sister-in-laws 50th birthday party this past weekend, what a wonderful time we had. My daughter made her cake which was in the retro "peace" theme. Will post a picture as soon as I get them uploaded.
