Brody and Ethan swimming with KayKay, what a fun summer we had!

Love my grandbabies! Jim and I enjoy having Ethan and Brody stay with us, and play with us. We feel so blessed to have Amber,Randy & family living nearby. Dustin lives 3 hrs away (further than I would like) but we can go get our Dustin time too!

My Mother's sister, my Aunt Juanita turned 81 yrs old and all four of us sisters attended her birthday party. Aunt J looks a lot like our Mother. So looking at her picture is a little bittersweet, since we lost our Mom just 2 years ago. Aunt J is the only sister left, and is having health problems. All our spouses and cousins were there so we took several pics of the whole group, and enjoyed some good family time. Thank you to Lauren, Tyler and Rose and those who helped. AJ is still living in her own home and looks like she is being well cared for, and that means so much to all of us. Happy Birthday Aunt Juanita!!!

.........Kay, a tree hugger!..........

Ethan spent New Year's Eve and Day, with me and Jim...... Randy and Amber spent the evening with friends to celebrate the new year. Ethan, KayKay, and Poppa celebrated New Years Eve shooting fireworks in the driveway. On New Years Day we spent hours playing with my new Lincoln logs (they gave me for Christmas) We combined them with the set given to my kids by Mema and Peepaw Johnson. We still have the original logs, and also the original tinker toys given to my kids. Ethan loves building with the logs, but he also enjoyed knocking our log house down, then, of course we had to build the house back again! We loved it.
