Happy Birthday, SooDah

Happy birthday to you, little sister. Tell all our cousins about how talented you are on hand bells...and wait till you see your card. Makes me laugh just thinking about it.
Love you and I don't tell you enough,
Candy

Just another braggin' Mom

I tried to hold it in, but you can't slap the smile off of my face. Rachel and Nathan both make me so happy and so proud.
In September, Rachel and Matt will be presenting us all with another member of the family and Owen will be a big brother. So far so good, though Rachel is remembering , "It ain't easy being queasy."
Then Nathan phoned last night to tell me that he has been accepted into the Master's program at the University of Chicago. I'm looking at it as a wonderful opportunity to travel. And the Texas Eagle goes right into downtown Chicago. Love those trains! He and Randi are discussing the situation and nothing is settled yet...but still!!
So happy...so proud...had to share.
Love you all,
Candy

HURRAH FOR ''CURLING''

Okay, I am just having the best time watching the Olympics, especially Curling. Moma and I discovered it the first year it was on the Olympics and just became besotted (how's that for a word!) with it. Now, I find out that Nick is learning to play it in PE. Today I got out for the first time since my surgery - I got my hair frosted (hurrah for Shirley) and bought groceries at WM. Tomorrow is the day I get my stitches out (ouch!) and I may even go vote early. Do I have an exciting life or what!!!! And when I'm not watching the Olympics, I'm watching the Westminister Dog Show --- I LOVE dogs --- have any of you seen that commercial the Pedigree does about false teeth for dogs -- it is a hoot -- I had a $2 coupon off their product & had to get it for THE BUZZ. I'm out of ideas for the non-writers of the blog so some of you get on the ball -- we have to get Buster, Deborah, Vickie, Suzy (you haven't been on in ages), Wade and Martha. I'm sure I've forgotten someone but then, I'm old!! Love all you guys!!

Photos of our COLD COLD winter......





Some of these pics are over a month old. You can't see the ground for the snow. Not sure how many inches we've had, but on the car in the last pic, you can get an idea...that's after a bit of it melted. LOL.
