Happy for another day!

Well Chapman did not win the series so they came home yesterday and Grampy met them at the bus. Now he will have to find something else to do as baseball season is over for him at Chapman. Don't think that will be a problem as he can always find something to do between physical thearapy,reading, yard work etc. We took care of Emeri on Saturday -Sunday. She is an active 15 month old. Really walking pretty well now but gets places much faster crawling. Kept me very busy but lots of fun and love having her. Just wish all my others were as close.
Katie and Matt come over this weekend for dinner so I get to hug those babies and watch them grow. Only a few more weeks and I can see the rest of my favorite big and little people.

View Chapman baseball!

Grampy has been watching the Chapman baseball games from Appleton, Wis. They are in the world series of div.lll. They won the first game and lost the second one so they have a double header today. guess you know what grampy will be doing all day. kind of neat because he can go on the web page and watch the whol game live.
Emeri spent the night with us last night and I had alot of fun with her. She so cute and I love having her. http://all-access.cstv.com/cstv/player/player.html?code=ncaa Think you have to sign in when you get excess to this site but it just requires you e mail and what ever password you choose.

A video of Emporia Hotel

Bob just called from, Virginia where he is hanging wallpaper. If you would like to see a video of him working go to emporia, virginia - the News. A page will come up and scroll down to virginia-emporia news. When that comes up go to May 17 news and scroll down and you will see a picture of Bob and the video.The owners of the hotel are friends of his and they had him come back and do the work for them. It would be a fun place to visit.

A fun day!

This is Emeri this afternoon when grampy and I got to take care of her.
Rob surprised Breanne with a massage, facial and all of those very relaxing treats and then took her shopping. All of this on his birthday! Her birthday is Saturday so guess this was an early birthday present. Tonight they are going to Rob's sisters for dinner and celebrate his birthday there. Emeri will not leave the bow in her hair but I had fun trying. oh well! it looked cute for awhile. She is taking a nap right now and I can hardly wait for her to wake up so we can play. It has been a fun day.

We have lots of Birthdays!!!

With a family as big a ours we do have alot of very special days. Today is Emeri's daddy's birthday. Sooo Happy Birthday Rob. We are so glad that you are our grandson and that you married our Breanne and gave us a precious great grandaughter.
They are coming over this morning and I get to have Emeri for a few hours while they have some time to do something special. Love it!!!!!

A budding artist!

Julianne do you remember making this picture? The date was January 30, 1991. You were at my house and you colored this picture. There are curtains at the windows and flowers in the front yard. A yellow tree! It was winter so the color is probably correct .
I like the big yellow sun-a happy day.

Happy Mother's Day

I am the most blessed grammy in the whole world. I have 3 sons (all very different) that have many talents in different fields and interests. I have 13 wonderful, beautiful, intelligent, giving,loving, talented, perfect grandchildren. I have 21 precious great grandbabies. Then of course I have 2 daughters that are the loving wives of 2 of my sons and they are my daughters too! Of course I need to include all of the husbands and wives of my grandchildren because they are special and I love them as they are my kids too! So you see why I am so blessed and how could anyone be more grateful for them all, than I am. Life is wonderful and it just gets better everyday. Today the sun is shining and it is a happy day. Thank you all for being the children that you are to me and know that I love you all with all of my heart.
Happy Mother's day to all of my "daughters".

Happy late birthday

Yesterday was Ethan's SIXTH birthday. He is really growing up. I am sorry I am a day late in blogging this but I am sure that you have probably blogged Elliott's blog. If not you can get pictures and the story about Ethan's birthday. Time is going quickly and it is hard to believe that my great grandchildren are growing up so fast. Of course that is the way it is supposed to be and even though the little ones are so adorable we can't keep them that way for long. Big ones are pretty cute too and are soooo special. So Happy Late Birthday Ethan. Your great grammy loves you very much.

blowing out the candles!

We have alot of birthdays!!!!! The Matthew Parkers came over last night for the first Sunday if the month dinner and of course we had to have a birthday cake. Annie and Jack put on the candles and they all sang Happy Birthday and helped to blow them out. They are so cute and it is such a special time to have them here. Just wish all of the other grands and great grands could be here too.

Everyone fine and I am sure I'll get pictures and will post them when I do.

New Baby Things

Cayden Aaron McAdow is due to arrive anytime now and Heather, Aaron and Ella are just waiting until he decides to make his entrance. I sent Heather a box this morning with a few things that I had made (see below).
Breanne just called and said that her due date is Dec. 12.
Steph how far is that past your due date?

Our Special event

David made it possible for us to go the the Romney event and to meet Mitt Romney. It was a good evening and if you have not heard him or don't know much about him, give it some thought and check out the Romney website. I know all of the David Parker kids know all about him and are supporting him.

Easter Family Photo

Just received this picture of Aaron, Ella and Heather. Ella is growing up and will be happy when her new baby brother Cayden arrives. Ella looks so cute in her Easter bonnet.

Just another day

Try as I might my pictures aren't downloading but will continue working on it. Grampy is still asleep this morning so thought I would blog abit before he wakes up. He is now walking with a cane so that shows progress. His thearapy is going very well and the thearapist is really pleased with his progress.
Matt and Katie and all of the kids were here Sunday for Easter. It was fun and they are so cute and fun to watch. More big news!!!!! Breanne is pregnant again so that will make number ???
I think I have lost count! It is a lot though and I brag about all of the babies all of the time.
Did you check Cashel's blog with Hannah in the mailbox? Toooo cute.
Here's grampy ready to get up so will keep trying with pictures.

Another New Blog

Hooray!!! Another new blog-
Sean has finally done it! Now we can see pictures of Ryan , Joel and Luke. Just need to get Heather to do one and then I can see and know about everyone of my grandchildren and great grandchildren. Haven't convinced Breanne yet though but will.

new blog

Traci now has a blog so we can all keep up with her auditions and coming and goings. She is one busy girl and hopefully someday will have a great part in TV or Movies. We are hopeful and she is working hard. She knows that it doesn't come overnight. http://wellthatsjustfabulous.blogspot.com/ Love the name of her blog!!!!!
