{Hello friends}

  Hoping this finds my sister bloggers doing well on this windy Sunday afternoon. Yep, we've got a little wind howling around here and a tad cool but I am enjoying a lazy afternoon. My Sunday lunch crowd (my family) have left for the day so I am kicked back. Sunday menu today consisted of: Chicken and dressing Giblet gravy Italian green beans with ham Mac & Cheese Homemade chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting and chocolate ganache.  Yep, they are little spoiled at Nana's house. I am not a huge fan of cakes with icing but it must have been good as one of the grands had two slices.  These gals and I have been friends for more years than I remember and since we've all retired within a few months apart in retirement and age (dating back to 4th grade in school) we try to get together once every 4-6 weeks. We always do something extra for our birthdays but was a tad late celebrating mine this year together due to other appointments that was a must. We always have a gr...

{I'm Back From Nicaragua}

Well, all within a few weeks I have traveled on two airplanes, been out of the country and celebrated another birthday! DANG ...if I live to be 100 there is no telling what else I might do! I just want to thank all of my blogging buddies for your prayers and thoughts. Needless to say I went to Nicaragua with intentions on BLESSING someone but I came back home MORE BLESSED ! I left a piece of heart with the women in Nicaragua.  Our team of 11 consisted of nine women and two men and all I can say is...Lord bless the two men that went with us! I'm qui te sure that they had enough of our hormones flying!   Our ladies ministered to women in two different churches and we basically taught the Word of God and loved on those precious women. The Lord opened up doors for us to be able to do what most of us would call a conference or retreat with the women. Women got saved, lives changed and well, God showed up and showed out! There are so many stories I could share b...

{Just 10 more weeks}

Can you believe my daughter only has about 10 more weeks left of pregnancy? Time has been flying by to me during her pregnancy. Of course the closer it gets to delivery time I am sure my girl will think it's taking forever!  We had the opportunity to see pictures of our sweet little grandgirl that will be making her appearance in April and as with anything else that we do.... WE MAKE IT A FAMILY FUN DAY !   My other grandgirl s are READY to see the new cousin but f o r the time being they will settle with pictures! And I can tell you that this little gal right here will probably always be the BABY no matter how many babies we have! She keeps us going. Showing off her new lipstick!  A gal after he r N ana's heart! Love that she loves lipstick! I am amazed at how far technology has come with sonograms and all the 3D's and etc. they do now. It is CRAZY I tell ya...just crazy!  All I can say is I have no idea how one can look at ...

{What's been happening this week ladies?}

Have you gals been doing anything fun or exciting this week? Well, I've been piddling (as my man would say) with a few little projects here and there. Started on a wreath to go in the new grandbaby's room that is on the way! If I don't get a little more pep in my step she will be here before I get the wreath made! Watch ed this grandgirl play a little ball this past weekend. She actually does more than just stand there too! (Ha!) But...she's so darn pretty till if that's all she wants to do is stand there...that's okay with me! And meet the New Annie! This little sport model here came out of the play room wearing Nana's ( Queen of Heart Wig) the other day and singing "It's a hard knock life". Get rid of the crown and we have us an Annie! She also left Papa and Nana a prize in the refrigerator! Every time she comes we find things like this in our frig!  We've also been watching the grandson play a little basketball...
