All of us Together


It has been quite some time since I made an entry, but there has been a lot going on during the last two weeks. The highlight of these two weeks was the visit of my family from California. Steve, Kathleen, Kayleigh, and Joshua came for a four (almost) day visit. We packed as much in as we could. But the most awesome part of it all was being together. I loved giving lots of hugs and loves. We went to a pumpkin party at "Aunt Peggy's house and all six grandchildren were there. We also took in a pumpking patch at Sauvie Island which was great fun! Then we all had dinner at Grandma in the Tree's house. (See photos). It was a "birthday dinner as Grandma celebrated her birthday on Oct. 13, Rori's birthday is Oct. 24, Joshua's birthday is Nov. 7, and Elly's birthday is Nov. 12. Sunday was a sad day as they fley back to California. But we are so thankful for the time together.

Today is rainy and windy and a good day to do a post to my blog. I just talked to my granddaughter Kayleigh, from California and that always makes my day special. Rainy or sunny! I am the proud grandma of six grandchildren. Kayleigh and Joshua live in California, Rori and Connor two granddaughters, live in Vancouver, Washington, and Ryan and Elizabeth (Elly) live in Camas, Washington. Their ages range from Rori, the oldest at 9 years to Elly who is almost 2 years old. They all are so special and unique and of course I love each one so very much.

I am married to Jerry and this year we celebrated our 45th wedding anniversary. We have 3 great adult children, one boy and two girls. So now you know a little more about myself and my family.
