Late post...

My wonderful friend Stephanie and her son James came to stay with us, a couple weeks ago, for a few days! It was great! The kids all got to play and Steph and I got to catch up. We took Ella, James and Addie out to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower garden. These are pics from that!

Poison Control.

Looks like fun, yeah?!?! Not fun to clean up though! That is Desitin. I have no idea how Ella got it into her crib but obviously she did.

The loss of another wonderful man in my life! My grandfather, Papa, passed away on March 8, 2010. He had been sick for a while, and though we are so happy he is with God and not in pain, we miss him terribly! I can't imagine holidays or even going home without him being there! He was tough on the outside but so soft, to us grandkids, on the inside! I have so many great memories of him and my grandmother! Papa called Ella his little jumping jack because after he got sick and was in bed most of the time she used to stand on his bed and jump up and down. Papa absolutely LOVED it!!!! We love and will miss you Papa!!!!

Is it really February....it has been a while!
