FANTASTIC NEWS

I just spent the last 5 days with mom and dad G. in Melvern Ks. I drove up there on Monday the 11th, because Tuesday morning dad had an appointment to have that biopsy done that 2 other doctors told him no to, anyway, the Doctor successfully did the biopsy, and the results are Negative!! No cancer in the lymph nodes in the chest wall. So now they are thinking of treating the liver cancer with nuclear beads. But first, mom and dad are flying out to Grant's house Aug. 28th staying till the 1st of Sept. then Grant will drive them half way to Amy's house in Phx. and Amy will drive 1/2 way too, to pick them up, then they will stay till the 5th. So Great Grandma and Pa get to see those babies soon. This procedure set him back a bit, but, I believe he will feel better soon.
Keep the prayers coming....

Pictures from California, July 21st-Aug. 5th

So I am sharing these pictures from my time at Grant's.

Full story down below.....

I am home from Grant's house..

I just returned from Calif. being at Grant and Ash's house. I went out there to help with Carter while they were at the festivities for Ash's sister's wedding. But I also got to keep Carter all two weeks, instead of sending him to the babysitter...I loved it. He is a handful thou. He started crawling and pulling up to standing the first week I was there. Needless to say, it was time to babyproof the house. Life as they know it, is not only gone, it will never be the same..ha ha
I flew in and my dear friend Pam picked me up and she was able to stay a couple days with me over at Grant's...then mom came in for about a week, and the end of the first week, Amy, Austin and Abbi drove over, and stayed the rest of the time with us. The last weekend, Bryan flew in, we picked him up at the airport and drove to the beach area and we spent the weekend all together at Cara's house. Tad and Carleen, Jeff, Jena, we all had a little family reunion which was so much fun...Cara and Aron are such great host...Taryn is away at San Francisco, summer school, and Lynn was not able to join us, but other wise it was great...Mom left before we went to Cara's....These are a few pic's that I wanted to share, and I will add a couple more....
Today is my birthday......I certainly don't feel 55!!!! and tomorrow is Amy's birthday...She certainly doesn't look 33!!!
Tomorrow I am driving up to Kansas, to spend the week with mom and dad G. Dad's biopsy is Tues. Wanted to be there for that, and just spend a little time with them..Maybe even do some chores that they can't do or need help doing...guess I better take my FARM clothes..ha ha
Ya'll take care.........

My trip is over

Hi everyone, I am back from my trip to Grant's house. I went out there to help with Carter, while Ashleigh's sister got married. But, I got to keep him everyday. How fun for me, althou I have to say, he is a handful. He started crawling while I was there, also pulling himself up to standing...and you should see him in his jumper, talk about a mad man, he is jumping up and down so fast it's hysterical. My friend Pam was able to get me from the airport, and stay with me a couple days, then Mom came over from Thur. thru Mon. and on that Fri. night, Amy and Austin and Abbi drove over, and they stayed the rest of the time that I was there. The last weekend, Bryan flew in, we picked him up at the airport, and we drove down to the beach, and spent the weekend with cousin Cara, she lived close to Huntington Beach, and Tad and Carleen came over both days, and Jeff and Jena came too, so it was a great little family reunion. Taryn is in San Fran. at college summer school, and Lynn didn't get to go at all...Poor PaPa....

Having all the kids together for 9 days was wonderful, even thou it was hectic at times...Carter was use to sleeping thru the night, well he decided not to while we were there, and Abbi, who never cries, was pretty fussy at times, and Amy wasn't use to that. And my little man Austin, as perfect as he is, in Grammy's eyes, well lets just say, he can be a pill too...ha

But, I was in Baby Heaven thats for sure. I forgot my camera, but we took gobs on Amy's and Ashleigh's camera, so I am waiting to get a CD from Ash, then I will have some pic's...Amy sent me her Snapfish, so I downloaded a few, so here are a couple of my favorites....

Tomorrow, Aug. 11th, Amy's birthday, by the way, mine is today!!!!! I am not old!!!!! Anyway, I am driving up to Kansas for the week, spending time with mom and dad G. Dad's biopsy is Tues. and I want to be there, plus, just to spend some time with them, helping get done a few things that maybe they can't do alone....we'll see.

So...hope you enjoy my few pic's.....
