Of course I didn't leave Clara out.  Its just that I have so many pictures of each one.  In fact I uploaded them to facebook if you want to look at all of them you can go to this site.

 
 
both of these have pictures of the kids!
 
Rita here is the info for the stone sign
it usually takes a good 4-6 weeks if they aren't busy, so the sooner the better.

I went back to my doctor today and I have sprained my l. ankle, not sure how, but I do stumble and fall a lot.  And I messed up another rib last night.  She says that my ribs are detatching from the carliage.  Which can also be caused by the prednisone. 
 
Rita, you should bring Kaiden out tomorrow to play with Clara!
Main Entry: gyp

Part of Speech: verb

Definition: rip-off

Synonyms: bamboozle, bilk, cheat, deceive, defraud, dupe, fleece, flimflam, gip, gull, hoodwink, hustle*, pull something, rook, scam, stick*, swindle, take for a ride, trick

Antonyms: be fair, give, offer

Can also be gip. Past tense: gyped or gipped. I learned something new--I would have voted for jip or jipped!
I think it would be really nice to have Daddy's own flowers planted at the cemetery.

Also, if we are going to get a bench, it would be nice to do so before the last disbursement of Mommy's estate and we can just take the cost out of there.

And you are so right: Ain't my grandson too cute???
How Cute is he?? But now, where's Clara? She needs equal time and space??

Happy Birthday Michelle!! Sorry, but I do good to remember my own family, especially my son-in-laws. And they are both in December. They probably get jipped when it comes to their birthday, in the shadow of Christmas! But may I just say, I am blessed when it comes to son-in-laws.

I know someone will get right on that word "Jipped:)" Go ahead, research that. And while you're at it..here's something else to think about. Have you noticed the new word for hand-me-downs? It's re-gift!! Well, Bobbie has another one for you. It's re-card!! I get birthday cards from her with nothing written in them so I can Re-card. Well, guess what? She's gettin' the one back she gave me last year. LOL. I think it is a great idea, especially with the economy the way it is. That's another thing...when we were growing up, the ECONOMY was probably about as bad as it could get...at least for us anyway...and we didn't even know it. That's just too funny.

About the flowers to plant at the cemetery...Steve, could we take some of Daddy's that are coming up and replant those? Is there any sense in buying flowers when there are so many up there?

About the bench..Do you want me to check on the bench and the price of it? It would be nice to have it up there that day. Trish, I will check on it if you give me the name of the place in Union. I might even drive up there.

Okay, ya'll..you need to pop in if only to say Hi on this here blog. I know you're all busy but if you got time to read it, you got time to let us know you are alive and well.

One more thing...I'm going to talk to Wanda Osborne about mowing the cemetery bc if she is going to do it...we all need to give her something on it...

Happy Birthday Michelle!!! Forgot to put that in there :)
Ruth, I just now read your post for the second time and figured out what "double nickels" were LOL!! Trish, I'm glad you and Emily had a good time and got to visit with those up that way. I do hate that you got sick and broke a rib. Is it feeling better now? Rita, I loved what you posted in red about the children. I do feel like Marleigh is my heart running around with a snotty nose, cutting her top 2 middle teeth and saying "apple" most of the time. I do believe that is her new favorite word :) Whenever she gets ready to eat she starts saying apple. I did get her to say "peach" this weekend though. She is also becoming the little climber :] Joe, is Shane going to be in Argentina for leisure time or work related? I'm sure they will have a good time regardless. I'm getting so excited about Easter. Getting to see most everyone again, the flowers, the warm weather. Where are the flowers going to come from that we are planting? This may have been covered already.........sorry if it has :) I was thinking maybe everyone could bring a flower they like? Mom, I hope you had a wonderful birthday today!! Love to all
Happy Birthday Bobbie and Michelle! (Trish it was 1974, you do the math) Today is the special day for both of you. Hope you both celebrate. Let us know how. Post pictures. Thanks for the report Trish. We'll keep praying for you. Vonda I am praying for you to have the strength you need to take care of David.
Love you all.
Happy birthday Bobbie!
And happy birthday Michelle too maybe?


I got a good report at the clinic. She told menthe chemo is working; she thinks anyway.
She has ordered some lab for me to get done here. We went shopping after my appt and I was coughing A good bit, that night my ribs started hurting. The next morning I drove to Vondas and stayed a couple hours, it was pouring the rain and I couldn't see a thing!! When I got back to Amys my side was killing me so I took a hot bath and by morning in was miserable. Had a sore throat too so I went back to the clinic and she said I had picked up a virus-probably at the clinic! And a broken rib. I go back in 3 months and in the mean time I am to cut back on the anti rejection drug by 2 pills a day. She thinks that's why I am getting so many infections.
Emily and I had a great time playing with the babes! They have grown so much!
gregs grandpa isn't doing well at all so remember him in prayer.
Greg and the kids came down this week to visit while Greg is on spring break. Clara and I had a peanut butter and jelly sandwichnwith some strawberries then she went right to sleep. I wrapped Brooks up snuggly and he went to sleep too so I had a minute to catch up on the blog.

Davids infection was not only in his kidneys but also in his blood stream which means he was septic. He is getting a PICC line today and will go back to the nursing home with it for his antibiotics which will take anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks. When it's bacteria in the blood it takes quite a while to get rid of. He doesn't have An appetite at all. Eating only fruit cups that vonda is bringing him.

I have some really good pictures of our visit last week and hopefully between naps I can post them.

Happy birthday Bobbie! I have your gift but will wait until you come in.
I remember being on the river at Beulah leslies house on bobbies birthday and Michelle was born. I think! Is that right Michelle? If so enlighten us on your age and what you are doing to celebrate!

Well I am gonna run, I sent Greg to the grocery store for me and he should be back soon and I need to catch up on laundry.

Love to all,
TT
Happy Double Nickels, Bobbie! Hope your birthday is a happy one.

Trish, please post what the Clinic told you when you were there last week. Amy said that you broke a rib coughing. How are you now?
Happy Birthday Bobbie, We pray you have a blessed day, we will be praying for Elliot's family.
Rita, we will be coming in for Easter but Shane is in Argentina with his girlfriend.
Vonda, how is David, we are praying for you guys.

Love and Prayers to All

Happy Birthday!!


 "To make a decision to have a child, it's momentous.  It is to decide to have your heart go walking around outside of your body for the rest of your life."  That is how our Heavenly Father feels about His children!
Happy Birthday Bobbie!  Is it 54?   I can see Mommy's heart in you.   
 
Kaiden and I were going to drive down today but he isn't feeling so well.  I have your present and I will get it to you soon. 
Rita

Good morning all,
Thank you for the birthday wishes. I actually overslept today! Coaley work me up barking at Shawn Micheal at 7 o'clock!
Elliott's uncle passed away and is buried tomorrow. His aunt was buried last week. Remember their families in prayer please.
Love you guys. Trish what did you find out at the clinic last week?
HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOBBIE, Hope you have a Wonderful Day Love You.
