Madilyn at PaPa and MeMe's house.


We thoroughly enjoyed our time spent with our precious GRANDdaughter Saturday evening and Sunday. She will be 1 year old in September and the time has gone by so quickly. She has such a sweet personality and she loves to give kisses. She is trying to walk and gets brave at times letting go of whatever she might be holding on to at the time.

A lot of the toys that she is playing with were toys that I have kept that were Jerrod's, Trista's and Brandon's.



PaPa loved getting all her hugs and kisses while MeMe was taking pictures.
She always wakes up in a good mood ready for breakfast. She is wearing part of it on her clothes. She needed to sneeze right after I had given her a bite of fruit.
She went to church with us and loved singing during the Praise and Worship but I had to take her to the nursery since she wanted to keep singing while Pastor was preaching. She is waving bye-bye and is saying quite a few words. She is definately a baby on the move. You can tell how much she loves her Mommy & Daddy when they walked in the door to pick her up. Thank you Ashley and Brandon for sharing this precious angel with us. We truly love our time spent with her. ;)

It's been awhile!!!

I know it has been quite some time since I posted anything on my blog but I have been working at PVR doing housekeeping and giving mom a break for the month of July. People have NO idea what has to be done to keep the restrooms (12 toilets, 3 urinals,4 showers 12 sinks), 5 cabins, etc clean. Some people just don't know how to clean up after themselves and I feel sorry for their parents and or spouses if they leave the same kinds of messes in the bathrooms at home. Who ever heard of sticking their wet clothes covered in grass in the dryer without washing them first??? And if there is a toilet brush in the stall where you just made a mess please use it and clean up after yourself. I think it is called "common courtesy." What happened to mother's teaching their daughters to wrap their sanitary pads, etc in toilet tissue before putting them in the trash can??? Much less leaving them just laying on the back of the stool, not wrapped in toilet paper and NOT even put in the trash can. OK, enough complaining. I just want my Mom to know how much I appreciate all of the HARD work that she does for our wonderful PVR. I love you Mom. ;)



This is a LARGE toad that Brandon and Ashley found in their back yard. Trista almost cried when she saw this picture. She is horrified of frogs, little frogs, so she couldn't believe this picture when Ashley sent it to her. She said, "That thing needs to be in an exhibit at the zoo." I am not afraid of frogs but I will not pick one up. Brandon and Ashley didn't pick this one up either, it was a little girl in the neighborhood that rescued it from their backyard and put it back in the pond that is almost directly behind their house. I told them that it will probably come back to visit. It had made a hole for itself right under their bedroom window. They also found a snakeskin in their new flower bed. Ashley's comment was, "Well that just lets me know that there is a bigger one out there somewhere." Doesn't sound like my girl's are going to be country girls.

I will post new pics of my GRANDbabies on my next post.
