She is so much fun! I am so turning into a crazy grandma! We are looking forward to her smiles and coos. She will be dedicated to the Lord at Salem on Sunday morning. Will be our pastor's last Sunday, so will be such a bittersweet day. We love Darrell and his wife DeeDee and will miss their love and leadership.

The top photo is just showing Carli's sense of humor, however weird! Wish I could fit into a flowerpot...

Fun filled weekend starting with a Mother/Daughter breakfast at church honoring our pastor's wife. Was Grace's first trip to Salem!

Saturday was full of visitors, then went to Ted's dad and stepmom's on Sunday. Grace sure had a big weekend meeting all of the family! Then on Monday we went to visit my sister, Susan, in New Philadelphia. She got lots of hugs and kisses.

Monday night I decided to let Tara sleep, and I got up (or rather stayed up) with Grace all night. Whew. I found out why you have your kids when you are young!!

Today I feel really old as our baby is "21". I cannot believe that Kelsie is that old and is now a Senior in college. Wow.

Carli update!

Carli had another chest x-ray and checkup with Dr. Stallings and all is clear!! She is now over 2 years clear!!! She didn't remind me about her appointment b/c she said that I would worry...boy, she knows me well. She showed up at my school and said that is where she was going, so I only had a couple of hours to stress!

Parent's weekend at Grove City...was a great time. Carli and Jeremy were there, too, as she was running in a Marathon on Sunday in Pittsburgh. Kelsie directed her sorority in the All Campus Sing, and they did a great job. We also made a quick trip to the Outlets...always a good time.

Missed my grandbaby...she'll change before I get back to hold her again!
