Tender Moments in Utah

Cousins you haven't seen in a very long time and getting reacquainted with.

Cousins who haven't seen each other in forever.  Your to cute Jack-man.

Sisters supporting each other on a very special day.

Their is nothing like a Papa's shoulder to rest on.

A tender moment.... spending time and seeing the smile on our grandsons face.

Our Son and daughter who were great hosts.

Whitney and her new Love Jared

Their is nothing more tender than a new bride and Groom 

this is my niece and her new husband.

While we were in Utah my Dad became very ill and  I don't mean to put such a depressing picture up, but when I look at it it actually is a very tender moment.  I've watched my Mom and Dad care for each other for many years but when I look at this picture it is more than a wife caring for her Husband.  It is about a wife and a Husband who have been through a lifetime together, about a Mother who not only cares for my Dad but about a Mother who loves my Dad more than anything.

Thankfully, the Dr's were able to find out what was wrong with Dad and their is nothing like a Great Grandson who can bring a smile to anyone's face.

Or a Granddaughter who is never to old to lay by her Grandfather.

We love you Dad and pray for a speedy recovery.

Give Away......

Because of all the comments that I received on my blog from all you awesome people I've decided (at the suggestion of my daughter Steph) to #1 keep blogging and # 2 do a give away.
Soooo when I get home in April I will be working on that. I have something in mind that all you Mom's will love I hope.

I am in Utah right now and will be attending my nieces wedding tomorrow. I have also met "Jared" Whitney's bo. He is cute and you can just see how happy Whitney is. We will spend the rest of the weekend getting to know him and then we'll see if he has any "questions" for us.
I'm not gonna lie......this is going to be hard.....she is my baby.

After this week I will be going to San Diego to hopefully enjoy some warm weather. Gary has a conference that I will help with for one day and then enjoy the rest of the 5 doing whatever I want.

Once I get home I will then go an pick up my New Sewing Machine. I'm so excited. My other one is 28 years old so I decided it's time to update. I've already signed up for classes so hopefully that will be enough and I won't need a PHD to figure the thing out.

I hope you all have a great weekend.

Good Night Sleep Tight

So I've decided that it is time to start sewing again.  It is something that I've always loved to do and now since I have a little extra time and lots of grandkids and a granddaughter who has shown an interest in sewing I figured it's time to brush up.  

These are some of the pillow cases that I've made....Madison  put in the request that she wanted to learn how to make one.    She made hers and did a great job.  She has picked up on sewing quite well.  

I made the other 11 and have to say they were so much fun and made for each child with lots of love.

So may you each sleep well or just lounge around and always know that Nana loves you.
