I am not going to apologize, but I do feel guilty not getting on here very much lately. I will tell you that I have been very busy doing some stuff that I can' share until after Sunday! Hint, Hint it is my daughter Shannon's baby shower so Grammie has been busy!!!
Everything else is going well. Todd and Erin are looking for a place to call their own, it sounds like the base is telling them to hold tight and they might be able to get into base housing sooner than they thought!
Heather has been enjoying their above ground pool at home, spending days at their trailer at the campground and just trying to keep up with Xavier!
Mr. Xavier is growing physially, his speech is growing by leaps and bounds, and he has savee a little of his terrible twos' for the last month before he springs into the 3's. Not a lot of terrible but you can start to see some little changes! That's OK, we love him more than I could have ever guessed.
The gardens are planted, the flowers are blooming and the grape vines are twining all over, so summer is great. After the baby shower, I think I will just set around and eat bon, bon's and wait for that new Grand Baby! Yah, right!!! I have fences to paint, weeds to pull, glass to melt and enjoy whatever each day brings. Since I wrote last, our Miss Kylee turned 3 and Mr. Dozer turned 1, they keep me busy, young and give us so much unconditional love!! I really don't know what we would do without them!
I hope your summer is turning out to be a beautiful one! I am in countdown mode for that baby predicted for August 15th. Xavier and Grammie will be waiting!!

I have reached the point in my life where I can enjoy the perks of being over 60. My greatest joy, is being Grammie and still MOM. My 4 legged children fill each day with unconditional love. My hubby and I still manage to get into all kinds of silly crap and try many others!! I am working on accepting each day as a gift ready to be unwrapped, be excited over, and enjoyed! My family makes that all possible and my friends are the fancy bow on top!

Wow life has been flying by with all kinds of things!
Between Mother Nature, Family Reunions, and trying to get stuff done around here I have been flying low the last couple of week!
100 mph winds hit Battle Creek last Sunday, the devestation is really, really bad. Thousands of trees down, hundreds of people with their homes smashed from falling trees, and no power for thousands still after5 days. We were lucky enough to get our power back on late Tuesday night. They had told us early Thursday so we were thrilled! The 90 degree heat during the outage was just peachy!!! NOT!
The yard is looking spectacular, my vison of 3 years ago is coming together and I am a happy camper. My garden area is beautiful and I have a few more vegetables that I need to put in. The grape vines are starting to grow like crazy so the new arbor we built this spring will be looking good soon! I just have to work on the landscaping underneath it!
Todd is now in North Carolina and checking in this morning! He will find out what the schedule is for him to go and get Erin and make their first real home! I am so excited for them and hope that all goes well! I know it won't go smoothly, they are working with Uncle Sam, but after trials and trbulations I am sure they will succeed beautifuly!
I and my family attended the Dillingham Family Reuion over Memorial Day weekend. Over 50 of my Aunts, Uncles, cousins 1st, 2nd and 3rd enjoyed catching up with each other!
So next on my agenda is Shannon's Baby Shower on the 26th of this month, continue to work around the house, do some more quilting, and wait for that new Grand Baby due in August!! Can you see me smiling from ear to ear!! Yah!!!!!
