Baby Shower!

September 13, 2014 by Debra

My neice, Nicole, is having a baby! Her expected date is September 29, 2014 – A little girl. Mommy and daddy are waiting to pick a name after they see her. The baby shower was in August and I must say it was very cute. Nicole’s mother and mother-in-law did the decorations. Some of the ideas were from Pinterest.

Writing on the diapers was a great idea. Several ladies wrote some pretty fun words! The bottle idea was probably my most favorite decor. I filled my bottle up full and drank all of my lemonade.

This image is amazing. Four generations here. Looking back, I wish we could have had Bryant in the picture too. The precious little baby will have a picture with both maternal and paternal grandmothers and three great grandmothers. Not too many of us can get an image as amazing as this!

Congratulations Bryant and Nicole!

July Fourth 2014 | Family Four Generations

Have I mentioned I really like my gmaCamera?

Yesterday I spent the beautiful day with my parents and kids. Kevin was playing farmer- cutting hay and bailing. After dinner we posed for our family photos. During our photo session, it occurred to me that we have four generations. Here we are above. These were taken with my Sony camera which I refer to as my gmaCamera.

The complete holiday gallery of images can be viewed here.

July 5 was a fun evening. The festivities continued over at our friend’s house. Good food and fun fireworks.

It is a privilege to be an American. In the words of George W. Bush, We are fortunate to be citizens of this free land, and we are grateful to the brave men and women in uniform who call the United States home. Happy Fourth of July, and may God continue to bless America.

A Wonderful Day.

Today was a fun and memorable day. For my husband it began as a typical weekend day, getting up from the cozy, comfortable bed and preparing to go visit the girls at 6:30 am. This is not the typical for me, I generally roll out of the same bed at 8 am on Saturday mornings. Well today, I did the non-typical. I joined Kevin and went to visit his girls.

First he fed them a bit of grain. Then he loaded them up in the trailer to visit the vet for vaccinations and the such. The Vet’s office is a busy office Saturday morning. Met a few new faces. Enjoyed hearing their stories. While visiting with the other’s I noticed the wonderful view of the mailbox. After the girl’s were taken care of, we loaded them back up and brought them home.

Kevin invited me to lunch. We went to Chunkie Dunkers on the north side of the square in Oskaloosa, KS. Really good food, I recommend their food and service.
