minnesota and lots of stuff

Well I finally have a moment and thought I would try to get into my account as I havent been able to get into it. I know it's been a long time since i blogged but I didnt even know if anyone noticed but I had a few references to the fact that I dont update very often. I dont know what keeps me so busy, but day after day slips by and before I know it it has been a month since I last made an entry.

A lot has been going on. Sheila had her 24th birthday. Emily had her 19th birthday. Sheila had 2 showers for the baby and one was at my house. Today actually! Alisha graduated from college. Tom and I have made 2 trips to Roxboro for Sheila's birthday and shower given by her church. Tom made 2 trips to Boone, one to get Emily home from her first year of college and one to spend a weekend at the mountain house for Alisha's graduation. So I guess I do see why I dont have time to Blog.

Emily and I just got back from a week in Minnesota and other than a miserable delay in Charlotte on our way to MN, we had a wonderful week visiting family over mother's day. The weather was just so great for Minnesota. It was warm during the day and cool in the evening. No mosquito's!!! that is a great plus. We had a wiener roast and lots of fun game time and rest time and eating time. thanks all you Minnesotan's. Now we had a shower for Sheila today and this is the last time we will see her before she has her baby. It was kinda strange to think about that. Andrew and Sheila will not just be a couple anymore. They will be a family. I know it will change everything for them. We are so looking forward to holding our grandchild and loving her. Now we just have to wait. Only God knows the day of her birth. It is and exciting time for our family.

PS Tom's Buffalo Sabers Lost. They are out of the playoffs for the Stanley cup. He is devastated. They were so close. Maybe next year, or maybe the Buffalo Bills will win the Superbowl.
