Another Playground Update

Clint put down the ground cover and the pebbles today. The pile of pebbles doesn't look all that big but it is 12 tons! The truck is huge but you can see how tall the pile is when you look at the man standing behind it. I think the next project will be the fence. It is really coming together. I can not wait to see the finished project. Poppa would be happy! I included a picture of Clint and his Mom. (Poppa's wife) better known as Memaw.

Happy Birthday Randy!

Today is my sons birthday. Happy 26th Birthday Randy! It is hard to believe that you are all grown up with two beautiful children of your own. Enjoy every second with them because soon they will be all grown up too. I hope you have a wonderful day! We Love you! Here is a picture of his wonderful family.

Peyton

Peyton came home with me Saturday after the garage sale. We had a very busy weekend and sold a lot of goodies. I feels good to have it all behind me. It was a lot of work! I made a litttle over a $1000 to put toward my living room fund. We have been saving toward new flooring and living room furniture. Ashley made $300 which was her goal. They just spent $300 on the air conditioner in their car. Not only did we make some extra cash but we did some major cleaning out of closets and toy boxes and other nooks and crannies! Peyton really wanted to come home with me and I can never tell him no. He has me wrapped around his little finger! One look at those baby blues and he pretty much has anything his little heart desires! We have enjoyed him so much. One day Hayden came over to play too. They love being with each other.

Lets Go Swimming!

I heard the boys (Peyton and Hayden) telling Katy they wanted to go swimming. In a few minutes they came running into the kitchen and said "Nana we want to go swimming" I turned to look at them and this is what I saw!!!! They were wearing Katy's swimmming suit bottoms and she had tied them up with pony tail holders. The boys didn't mind at all! They were just happy to be going swimming.

Sleeping Angels

Brooklynn and Hayden spent the night with us. Don't they look sweet when they are asleep? Oops I see some eyes staring back at me. He looks sweet even when he's awake!

Peyton Gets A Haircut

We took Peyton to get a haircut today! We have a barber in town that cut Clint's hair and Chris and Randy's hair(our Sons) and now he is cutting our grandsons. Peyton looked so cute sitting in the barber chair. It brought back memories of Chris and Randy sitting in the same chair getting their flat tops for the summer.

Peyton and Hayden

The boys had so much fun today! They played in the sand box and then went swimming. We bought Pizza for supper and then they took a warm bath. They have enjoyed each other so much!

Play Ground Update

The playground equipment arrived today! The kids were so excited. They couldn't wait to try it out. Memaw brought a couple more grandkids up to give it a try too. She even tried it out. There is still more work to be done but it won't be long.

Thanks!

Ashley and Chris took us out to eat at Toby Keith's at Bricktown for Fathers Day and Clint's birthday. It was very nice. After we ate we went to Bass Pro Shop and then to the Mall. Peyton came home with us. We have enjoyed having him here. We picked Hayden up today and they have had so much fun palying together! Thanks Ashley and Chris we had a great time!

Saturday

My daughter Ashley and my daughter in law Ashley and I went to garages sales Saturday. We had a lot of fun and we all found some bargains. My favorite buy of the day was this Osterizer blender. Works perfect and only $2.00. Then we headed to Homeland to get in on the specials they were having during their 3 day sale. It is sad that the sale prices now are higher than the regular prices were a few months ago! We picked our first squash today. It was so good!! I love fresh veggies!

Our Grandchildren

When I was a girl I would tell my Mom that I was going to be the best Grandma in the world. I told her I would wear glasses and an apron and I would bake cookies and cakes for my grandchildren. I knew I wanted to be a grandma but I had no idea how wonderful it would be! I can’t begin to describe the pleasure that Brooklynn, Hayden and Peyton bring to our lives. Hearing Peyton say his prayers and thanking Jesus for his Nana’s and Poppa’s touches my heart in a way that the best planned sermon couldn't. Brooklynn's clear sweet voice fills my heart with joy when she sings to me as only she can. Listening to Hayden tell me about his Daddy and watching him follow every step his Daddy takes reminds me how quickly they grow up and how precious each moment is. I am so thankful that God has allowed me the opportunity to be a Nana. I might not be the apron wearing, cookie baking Grandma I thought I would be as a little girl and I am sure I'm not the best grandma in the world either, but I think I have the best grandchildren in the world!

Junie B. Jones

Today I took Katy (my daughter) and Brooklynn ( my grand daughter) to see Junie B. Jones and the Stupid Smelly Bus Tour. Katy really enjoys me reading these books to her. I met my Mom and she went with us. Our first stop was Bath and Body. Today was the start of the Big Sale! We loaded up with body butter, body wash, body cream, sugar scrub, shampoos, conditioners and wall flowers! We found so many good deals. Then we went to the Bus Tour. We got there early and found good seats and waited patiently for the show to begin. It was so funny! She did little skits from several of her books. After the show they called out colors. We were all given pieces of colored paper when we got there. The first color called was blue. Yay we had blue. We were part of the first group to get our books stamped and meet Junie B. Then we received a Junie B. pencil, banaid and bookmark before getting in line to buy some Junie B. books. The girls enjoyed the show and so did Mom and I. We had lunch and did some more shopping before coming home.

Ashley Graduates!

My daughter in law graduated from nursing school! We are so proud of her!
The pinning was very nice and there was a lovely reception afterwards. She will be working at a near by hospital starting tomorrow. Here are some pictures of Ashley and Randy and their two children Brooklynn and Hayden, Clint and Ashley, Randy and Ashley and Katy Ashley and Brooklynn. Way to go Ashley we are very proud of you!

Fun At The Farm!

I am so behind on blogging! Peyton spent a few days with us last week and his cousin Hayden came to play. We took the kids to the farm. They loved it. The boys have so much fun when they are together. Here are some pictures of them feeding the cows and sticking their hands in the stock tank. Katy was with us too. Brooklynn was at her other Nana and Poppa’s. Hayden said "Nana them cows get me?" I assured him Nana and Poppa would keep him safe! After feeding the cows Peyton said "Ew that yucky!" I guess he wasn't too fond of the rough cow tounges! They both agreed that it was fun though!
