Back From Posting Vacation! =)

Alright, alright, already, here is your long awaited post! ;)

May you be richly blessed by my eloquent words of wisdom… LOL!!!!


We just got back from a week in Portland, visiting with my parents and sis. Lynda has not seen Grace for awhile so we kept our visit on the down low and did not tell anyone we were in town. That way we could spend lots and lots of time with Auntie Lynda and just go with the flow. ;) It was very nice! We celebrated Lynda’s birthday, my Mom’s birthday, as well as Father’s day with my Dad. And guess who got the most presents???? GRACE! She is very spoiled loved and doted on by my family! ;)

Lynda and I tried our hands at making homemade lollipops and it was really fun. The hot cinnamon was my favorite and Gracie really liked the cherry. (Especially when I gave her a HUGE wooden spoon covered with cherry lollipop.) Mmmmm! Mmmmmm! Boy was she a glorious sticky mess!

I am home for today and tomorrow and then off to Idaho for 14ish days. We will be going to the family reunion so my Mom can show off Grace see her side of the family. My Mom has 15 brothers and sisters and they all have kids that have kids, so it is a pretty big ta-do. My Mom is a little concerned that her siblings may be jealous that she has the cutest grand baby, but she is willing to risk it. ;)

I will try to keep up with everyone from my Dad’s laptop, but I am making no promises. Usually if there is any remote chance that the computer can be used, my Dad is using it. Some people just can’t seem to stay off the internet! SHEEESH! ;)

Well, I will try to see most of you this weekend either at Family Fitness, or Church tomorrow. Jamie you should come to Jill’s house tonight so I can hug ya! (You can be my date.) =)

There is certainly nothing wrong with a little girl being very spoiled...ooops...I mean loved...especially by grandparents and aunties. Grace sounds like one lucky little girl!

I was bummed that I only got to see you in passing today. You are missed! I hope you have a good time in Idaho, but can't wait for you to get back... and stay back.

Sorry to say... Dad forgot his laptop. I saw it in the spare bedroom. Don't forget to send me lots of pics from Idaho! Oh yeah... I guess you won't see this till you get home. Hope you had a great time!

I'm certain that your mom WILL HAVE the cutest grand baby at the reunion. The pictures of Grace are incredible. She is beautiful. Not that He doesn't do good on every little creation, but Grace, yep she's a good one!
And can I say at this point that I feel REALLY REALLY old seeing Nathan and Eli in that next post?!? OK weren't they just born and wasn't I babysitting the Nathan's sisters just a few years ago? Oh, getting old! Where do the years go?
Have fun! I'll miss your blog while you're gone!
