Tornados

I'm a little unnerved tonight. We are expecting the worst tornadic weather we have had in several years tomorrow. It is supposed to be here right at the time of the wedding. I'm hoping that the baseball-size hail, tornados, and large cell of severe storms wait until Sunday. Pray for good weather my... Sign in to see full entry.

Rehearsal

I'm off to the rehearsal and dinner. Fiance's mother made a bajillion enchiladas, the bridesmaids all are bringing sides and I made a Sweetheart Trifle (you may know it as Death by Chocolate!), cinnamon brownies, dark chocolate brownies, Toll House Pie, and a pineapple cake with cream cheese...

Little Bright Eyes

My six year old granddaughter, Little Bright Eyes, came to visit last week. Our daughter had already talked to her about death, heaven and so on when our cat (her favorite snuggle buddy) died so she understands that Papa and I are very sad about her great-grandmother. She drew each of us a picture.... Sign in to see full entry.

Countdown!

4 more days until my daughter's wedding!! She is so calm, but I am a basket case. I finished the favors tonight - never again will I offer to do that! I also finally found shoes to wear. Tomorrow I have to start baking as I am making all the desserts for the rehearsal dinner Thursday. All of this,... Sign in to see full entry.

Death

I don't know what it is about death that freaks us all out. I look at my wonderful mother-in-law who is dying from terminal cancer and she is so at peace with everything. I wonder what it must be like to feel that peacefulness and calmness. I do know this - I will miss this woman from the very... Sign in to see full entry.

Easter

Today was an up and down day. Seeing my mother-in-law was difficult as she is not doing well. Hospice says it could be any day. Dinner with my family was uplifting. Watching the kids look for eggs and hugs that left chocolate fingerprints on my clothes was fun. Got to see my granddaughter (who is 14... Sign in to see full entry.

Easter Bunny

My husband plays Santa Claus every year at the Book Fair at our local elementary school, but one year he was asked to be the Easter Bunny. I never laughed so hard as when he showed up in a pink bunny costume. A giant, pink bunny with rather psychotic eyes. A friend of ours had a little girl around 4... Sign in to see full entry.

Grandsons

My first 2 grandsons are 4 months apart. They are great friends, but could not be more different. Big Guy is tall and lanky with beautiful, blonde curls. He swears he is not at all interested in girls although I have noticed him sneaking a few looks now and then. He is a bit of a loner, sticking to... Sign in to see full entry.

BFF's

My youngest daughter (Free Spirit) has 3 friends she met in Kindergarten. They have remained friends through childhood and into adulthood. They will all be in her wedding next week. One of the girls has a younger sister that they all used to torment. She had a favorite stuffed animal - a lamb she... Sign in to see full entry.
