Class Reunion

Last Saturday I attended a class reunion in my hometown.  The class of 1978 invited the class of 1977 (my class) and the class of 1979 to join them for a reunion.

Afterwards I drove around town and took a few pics around the square.  :)

It was fun seeing old friends and catching up. It had been too long!!



O Brother, Where Art Thou?

My brother and sisters and our spouses gathered recently at my sister's home for "dinner and a movie".  My nephew wanted to cook for us and he made some delicious chicken enchiladas!!

After lunch we wathced the movie, "O Brother, Where Art Thou?"  My brother had not seen the movie so my sister thinks it is so funny and wanted Steve to watch it.  We had a good time together as always with lots of laughter.  After the movie we had coke floats.  Yummy!

Catching up!

Okay - I think I am done with the catch up posts!!  We did have some other important happenings this summer but I didn't get pictures. 

On June 28th - Robert and I celebrated our 31st wedding anniversary. 
On June 30th I celebrated another birthday. 
July 3rd Robert and I went to Charleston (Texas) to a 4th of July party at the church where my brothers and their wives attend.  We went with my brother, Steve and his wife, Tina.  We enjoyed hamburgers and homemade ice cream and then a fireworks show.  It was fun!!

And now we are awaiting the arrival of our newest grandbaby.  I had to get caught up on all these posts before that time and then we will have the other two grands again when their parents take a little vacation - so lots more pics to come of the 3 grands!!

The after party

After the shower we went home and the guys and kids were in the pool so we joined them for some fun in the sun.

Britni was putting the finishing touches on the diaper cake as she inserted the cake pops.

Decorations

Britni made little blue footprint cookies as take home favors.



The hostesses gave them the stroller/car seat combo.

Everyone was given a "diaper" when they came to the shower.  After everyone got there Britni had them open their diaper.  One of them got a surprise!!  Tina had the surprise -a dirty diaper.  LOL  She also made the punch and homemade mints.  So yummy!

Ann found some cute little pacifier mints/sweetarts that were really cute.

It was a fun shower and thanks to my sweet daughter, my sweet sisters and sister-in-law and sweet neices who helped with the shower. 

Baby Shower Prep

Britni, my sisters - Ann and Barbara, my sister-in-law and her daughter - Tina and Lindsay and my nieces, Kristie and Brittany were hosting a baby shower for Steven, Kylie and Harrison on Sunday afternoon.  On Saturday evening, June 25th- and into the night - we worked on preparations for the shower.  Britni is a good little organizer and she has the grandest ideas!  She had bought a book on cake balls/pops and decided that is what she wanted to do for the shower.  So . . . we were up late getting those silly things decorated.  I will probably never do them again but they were really good!

In case you can't tell - these are not pigs - they are babies with pacifers!!  :)

We also did baby bottles and then just some brightly colored cake balls. 

We did have fun with a lot of laughs before we got done - which was way after midnight!!

Happy 61st Birthday!

Happy Birthday to my sweet husband - today - July 14!!

He put up a ceiling fan in our sunroom, hung a chandelier in the blue room and then we went to run some errands.  We had to take a water sample from the pool to the pool place and to Lowe's to order tile for our kitchen!!  Yea!  I took him to eat at El Chico's for his birthday. 

Happy Birthday!!

Grands

I can't believe Camp Granna has come and gone for another year. I am always tired by the time they leave but as they drive down the driveway I get a tug on my heart strings. Immediately it is so quiet - too quiet and I am missing them already!!

Camp Granna 2011 - Day 5

On day 5, June 24th - Cars 2 was coming out at the movie theater and we were going!!  Chandler was so ready to see the movie and we were going to see it in 3D!! 

We had brought some movie candy with us and we bought popcorn and drinks.  The kids loved the movie and the snacks.  Chandler said, "Thank you, Granna for taking us to see Cars 2."

Afterwards the cousins came over again to swim.  This time we had 3 more!!   We lined them up in order of age - Jacob, Alli, Audrey, Addi and Chandler.  Rainey was being shy and wouldn't get in the picture. 

Karol Ann, Barbara, Tim and I had a nice visit while the cousins played together. It was great getting to see them all even though the visit was too short!!
