HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KATIE

TOMORROW IS THE BIRTHDAY OF THE COUSIN I GREW UP WITH AND PLAYED WITH THE MOST....MARGARET KAY PARSONS.....WE HAD MORE FUN THAN ANY 2 LITTLE GIRLS COULD HAVE PLAYING AT GRANNY & GRANDDADDY'S HOUSE.  KILLED GRANNY'S MAPLE TREE MAKING SWORDS FOR FIGHTING OFF THE ENEMY AND GRANNY NEVER SAID A WORD (we didn't know we killed it til later)  OUR PLAYHOUSE WAS THE GARAGE...WE HAD MORE ADVENTURES THERE....AND LEARNED TO WALK THE BARRELS SO WE COULD SHOW OFF TO THE SMALLER COUSINS AT THE ICE CREAM PARTIES IN THE BACK YARD. (AND THEY ALL LEARNED TO WALK THE BARRELS TOO)
I LOVE HER SO MUCH AND HOPE SHE HAS A WONDERFUL BIRTHDAY AND WITH ANY LUCK SHE MIGHT EVEN READ THIS (I gave her the address in the letter & card I sent).  NEVER HURTS TO TRY!!!   LOVE YOU, KATIE.....JODY

More of Lily

Eden and Matt had to go run a couple of errands yesterday,(Eden is feeling much better) and I said "I'll watch Lily!!!!!!!!" So she and I had lunch, she had a bath, and a nap and a full diaper. LOL. She's so precious. I can't get enough of her. Here's some photos of Miss Lily and the rest of us.(more soon).....

We FINALLY found it!

Since we received Nana's ashes, Mom and I've been trying to find something for them that wasn't depressing or that looked like an urn. We were at a really awesome shop here in Williston, ordering Eden some lilies, when Mom asked them if they might have something that would work. The lady showed us several things and we both just knew when we saw it.

I think we did good. We think Nana would approve and we have her next to one of her cowboys she loved.  Here's some photos of it and don't look too close, I dusted the house AFTER the photo, why I didn't do it before is beyond me....LOL.
