NEW GRANDBABY

I have a new adorable grandbaby!!!!! Her name is Melia Rose Dillard. She was born to my oldest daughter and her husband on June 26. That is also Steve's and my anniversary,two of our son in law's birthdays,and Steve's sister's birthday. What a wonderful anniversary gift! I was able to be in the room for the delivery! What an amazing experience that was for me!!!

It's been a whirlwind last few weeks but now everybody is gone and it's SO quiet!!!!

BUSY,BUSY,BUSY BUT FUN,FUN,FUN

We will be celebrating my birthday on Saturday and Mother's Day on Sunday. The following Thursday Mandy and Matt and the grandbabies will come and stay through the weekend. Natalie and Matt will come back for the weekend too. They are all going to be here for Emily's graduation on Saturday. The following Tuesday Emily and I will go to Utah and stay until Sunday.

THE VERDICT IS IN

Megan had her ultrasound on Thursday and found out what she is having. We are having another girl grandbaby! They are so excited and so are we!

CALIFORNIA TRIP

We got back on Sunday from our California trip. We had a fun time hanging out at the beach. We also walked on Hollywood Boulevard and checked out the stars on the sidewalk and Graumins Chinese Theatre. We took a ride through Beverly Hills in a limo and checked out Rodeo Drive. Had fun playing with the grandbabies!
Emily, my baby, got engaged this week!
We also celebrated Mandy's 30th birthday!
All in all a very eventful week!

PACKING

Packing is a major ordeal for me!!!! Does anyone else feel the same way? I try to devote the whole day before I leave just for packing. I can't ever decide what to take. Then I always think I am forgetting something! It's all so overwhelming!

MEMORY

Just realized that the last two posts are almost the same. You know how it is... the memory is the first to go. Now what was my name again......

CALIFORNIA

So it's off to California for our whole family on Wednesday. We are going on this trip to celebrate Emily's college graduation. She doesn't actually graduate until May, but with the pregnant sisters, we had to move the trip up to spring break. We are renting a beach house while we are there. It should be a lot of fun.

MY TRIP

I'm back from my trip and trying to get back to normal. It won't last too long though, because we are going on a family trip to California on the 17th to celebrate Emily's graduation. She will be our last child to graduate from college. We are going to stay in a beach house there. It should be a lot of fun!

MY TRIP

I'm having a good time in Utah! Megan and I have been shopping, crafting, and watching movies. I will be going to North Carolina tomorrow. Megan and Travis will be going too.

MORE GRANDBABIES!!!!!!!!!

I will be getting grandbaby number 3 and number 4 this summer! Mandy is having her third baby in June and Megan is having her first baby in August! Isn't that exciting? I can't wait!!!!

Christmas 2009

Christmas kinda got spread out for our family this year. The girls and spouses/boyfriend exchanged gifts with the names they drew at Thanksgiving because the whole family was together.
Christmas morning we had Natalie, Matt, Emily, and Bossy. Both pairs had other family to spend time with, so Steve and I spent part of the day alone.
Then Wednesday we came to Plano and exchanged gifts with Mandy, Matt, and the kids.
We are going home tommorrow (Saturday). It's been fun playing with the kids!
