I hope that you all have enjoyed this beautiful Easter Sunday. He is risen! I wanted to end the month of March in sharing a few of my favorite photos from the month. Celebrated my favorite grandsons birthday. Conner is 18 now! Our beautiful Mallory Grace all decked out for the prom. The youngest grands (sisters) were flower girls in their uncle's wedding. The oldest one was in her element of dress up. The younger one, not so much. THAT HAIR BAND ITCHED HER HEAD she said! I purchased a new pair of wedges that I love. I am always skeptical about ordering shoes or clothing but read the reviews on Amazon and went for it. Love the color and the style. The youngest grand loves to take selfies and play with the filters. Marty colored Easter eggs. He always colors at least a dozen every year. He always says he's doing it for the grands but I know he does it because of the inner child in him! LOL! I went with the little ones to Disney on Ice and we had the best time. I think I enjo
Good Sunday afternoon y'all. I hope that you all have had a great week. We actually got about 2 inches of rain yesterday and it was so nice. It did cool off a bit and this morning we had a nice breeze as we enjoyed coffee on the front porch. But...no breeze or rain today. HOT!
The youngest two grands stared their new school year in which my daughter who taught school in the public school system for 11 years teaches them at home. Adalynn and Annaleigh are very blessed to have their mom teach them. They love it and of course they had to get all gussied up for their first day of school pictures you know?
The youngest three grands stayed with Papa and Nana Friday and Saturday as for an early birthday outing my daughter had the chance to go see Alan Jackson in Savannah, Ga. They couldn't wait for Papa to get home so he could ride them around on the 4-wheeler. Never mind that he had been up since 4 am and returned home about 6 pm. from work. What we do for the grands, right?
Of course we done a little yoga, nails, and played around with makeup. They love doing yoga to the Christian song called Oceans by Hillsong. And, like their Nana, their favorite part is being rewarded with a cool wash cloth and rest. LOL! Mine have essential oils on them so I put a tad of orange (Kid safe) on their wash clothes. Just enough they felt so special. We made them ahead of time and put them in the freezer for just a bit so they would be nice and cool.
Then we baked a cake for Sunday dinner. The best part is licking the beater or spoon you know!
Our granddaugher Kyleigh started snapping pictures using filters. So glad they know how to do this! LOL! Grands are surely so much fun but I will tell you, this Nana was tired. I only wish that I had just a tad of their energy. They say, "grandchildren will keep you young". Well, I am not so sure that meant body wise but they sure keep me younger mind wise as I try so hard to look through their eyes, listen to their words and hear what they hear. Oh the joys of children....

A friend of mine will occasionally "dump" all of her saves that she keeps on her phone and I always love to read them. I hope that these speak to your heart as they did mine. Many times her little "saves to her phone dump" come at just the right time. I hope that you all have a wonderfully blessed week.
Hugs and blessings, Cindy
This was so wonderful. Loved all the quotes at the end. Perfect. And so much fun with your littles...they are the sweetest girls and they sure have the best Nana and Papa ever! I sure wish I could be one of your granddaughters! LOL. I think I've said that before. Maybe I could bring Lily Grace up and let you pretend she's one of your littles? LOL. Thank you for sharing your family with us. What a blessing!!!
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing on this side of heaven as wonderful as these memory making moments with our grandchildren! My cup is overflowing and I am so grateful! I know you feel the same, Cindy ...
ReplyDeleteI sure do Linda.
DeleteAwww! You're such a great Nana. No wonder those grands love you to bits.
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!!
Those grands are pretty special.

Yes they came through twice and I know what you mean about blogger still messing up. It has been a little crazy on my end.
DeleteYour husband's expression as he listens cracked me up. Having the explanation that it had been a long day made perfect sense. It is obviously great fun for the girls to spend time with you. You make life fun!
ReplyDeleteVee, Marty was hoping to get out of riding them on the 4 wheeler. However, it did not happen!
DeleteWhat fun you have with those youngest grand girls, Cindy! They sure do keep our minds young, but they can wear out our bodies!! LOL! Thank you for those inspiring quotes. I appreciate them. Have a great week, my friend. xo
ReplyDeleteThanks dear Kitty.
DeleteAlways fun to see your delightful granddaughters. I don't know how to do the photo filters either, so I stick with the normal photos. LOL.
ReplyDeleteThanks Margie.
DeleteYou continue to make the most wonderful memories with your grandchildren, and especially when you have them all to yourself for those overnight visits.
ReplyDeleteThe special graphics from your friend are so encouraging!
Thank you Barbara.
DeleteHi Cindy, I enjoyed all the pictures. That is nice that your daughter can homeschool. The tractor picture reminded me of my grandfather. He hitched a wagon to the back of his lawnmower and pulled us around. Yoga to Oceans is great. I love that song! I love the matching headbands. Enjoy your week!
ReplyDeleteThanks Susan.
DeleteThose grand girls are just so cute. Isn’t it fun doing what they love? I enjoy seeing what your family is doing and the photos are always so sweet! Blessings dear one!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Pam.
DeleteIt looks like so much fun! Those littles look adorable starting school and all the fun times at Nana's sound like a blast! Yoga, nails, makeup and cookies...oh and a ride with Papa..the best day ever!
ReplyDeleteThey really did have a great time. I was tired! LOL!
DeleteI've had our girls the past two weeks during the day because their Mom went back to work two weeks before their school starts. We had all kinds of fun, pedicures, crafts, cookie baking and more. Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteWhat fun Lea.
DeleteHi, Cindy - I think I'm like a voice from the past. We've had so much going on and have done a lot of traveling over the past few months. I love the pictures of your grandkids. They are growing up so fast, as are mine. I'd love to know more about your essential oils on your washcloth. I recently started with essential oils. I'll be back again to see what you have to share.

Oh, wow! Our friends went to see Alan Jackson, too! I am pretty sure it was that same exact concert. He is so wonderful. One of the true-blue country classic musicians. I will be sad when he retires! Your little grands are just so precious!
