Thankful for JoAnn's Coupons

At Grandma's house it is all about scrapbooking and crafts. I think we go through a package of glitter glue each time! I'm grateful to share my love of creating with my grandchildren, and I'm thankful for coupons from JoAnns and Michaels to make it more affordable! This is Bryce and Nicole making glittery Christmas ornaments. On Sunday, Marnie and Morgan spent the whole afternoon with me scrappin' in my art and craft room. I will post a photo soon, as it is a work in progress. I just wish it was a little bigger, there is never enough room for the mess we like to make!

Happy Thanksgiving!

The top photo is a Turkey cake. I saw it at the store and thought it was cute so I had to have it and it is our table centerpiece. The bottom photo is Morgan in her indian hat that she made in school. I think we all made one of these when we were in first grade. Morgan is thankful for her friends and her family and her home. Happy Thanksgiving!

Morgan Is 7 Today!

Our granddaughter, Morgan is 7 years old today! Look at that beautiful smile she has! She loves school, arts and crafts, and anything on the Disney channel. She tried skiing up at Hubbard Lake this year, with a little help from Joel. We didn't meet Morgan until she was 5, but are so grateful she and her sister Marnie have come into our family. They are a lot of fun, and have made our lives sweeter! Happy Birthday, Lula, we love you!

Movie Night

Rob and I went to the movies tonight to see American Gangster. I guess it was a true story. Who knew all of that was going on in the world when I was 13 years old! Sometimes going to movies like that gives you a little history lesson along with it. Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe are such good actors. It was good, worth seeing, but only for adults!

Nicole Is 5 Years Old Today!

Our granddaughter, Nicole. Five years ago this beautiful little girl came into our family and we were thrilled! I used to call her our princess, but now I call her my Honey Girl, because her hair went from dark to honey colored blonde. This year she started early fives and got to ride the bus to school. She had been wanting to ride the bus from the time she could walk and talk. Nicole is cute and fun, and we love her very much. We are so grateful to have her in our lives!
