Loving Pigs, To and During, Adoptive Grands, 4 Generations, Evie, and The Look of Love

Image
I am not sure if I shared this  with  you or not, but Evie, loves the  color pink, more so she loves pink pigs! How cute is that? Here is a part of her bday gift I  don't think I shared with you, a canvas bag I painted on. By the way, she loved her pillow. Here I am headed to Evie's party. And the next three pics are me at the party with the kids. Brodie Beckham, who only wanted down to run and play.   And this sweet girl. Next few pics will be of my  adoptive brat  grandsons. Namath Chandler aka Chan Man And Brayden talking with Namath Jesse was sitting off to the back of the room and I did not get a pic of him. Except in a group shot. That is Jesse on the left end of the bench. Course Chandler did not get the  memo that said, look at the camera and smile! Four generations. Always sweet to have those generational pics. Evie's shirt says, "I  was 6, not I am 7"... so, she had a 6 7 bday party. I remember Cory and a backwards  party once ...

Where I Have Been, Biting or Not, Watercolors, Evie Card, Pillow and Lily

Image
 Morning everyone  Got up early on Friday, not really any earlier than normal but I started... MOVING, earlier than normal. I was at the docs office at 9:30 for my allergy shot. On my way out of the office I  stopped and picked up a treat.. So your question is, how many licks do you think I got? And did I lick it all the way down or did I bite it? From the docs office I met one of my new friends, Kim at the  Senior Citizens Activity Center (old folks work out place)! I mentioned to Kim on the phone  the other day that I needed to start doing, I have been wanting to do  chair yoga there. She jumped on that and said, "I will  go Friday with you"! Its accountability, if you are meeting someone, you tend to go and do. If you are thinking of going alone, you  might tend to not go. Sorta like my intent to make this  a regular thing, I registered 2.5 yrs ago, this was my first visit!  Yep....ACCOUNTABLILITY! And Kim is the woman that has paint ...

Mike, Flowers from Class of 78, Checkered Flag Planted at the Finished Line and Old Contact

Image
 Morning, morning, and  another morning to each of you! Darla, I read  your post and no it was not bad in your request, that also happened to be something that was going to go in this post anyway. The amount donated for flowers for Mike was amazing. The 32 folks that donated really did a great job. I don't know what the flowers cost, however, I do know that what was  left will go to the DuPont Alumni Association, and will remain in the kitty and any group needing help with a reunion will benefit from the kitty. We all agreed to this and this is  something Mike would really go for also. Darla requested to see the flowers  that the class had made up. Done up in Bulldog style with  Bulldog colors. What a great job that  In Full Bloom Flowers did. Mike being a NASCAR fan,  A BIG FAN. I thought a checkered flag was needed. I attended the service but got stopped on the way out the door and did not  attend the burial.  However, I was tagge...

Lost Friend/Classmate and Misty

Not that long ago I told you  about a long time friend and classmate,  Mike.  He was fighting cancer. Our classmate David, and long time  friend of Mikes visited daily with Mike and reported back to us on FB about Mikes journey.  Wed., this was posted. There is a celebration planned for Mike this Saturday at the  funeral home in my old stomping ground area, Hermitage. Mike grew up and continued to  live in his hometown of  Old Hickory. He was 66 yrs old. Later this was posted. Hey DuPont folks! Hopefully you all have seen D.K. Senior post letting us know Mike Pope has passed away. David has let me know that there will be a Celebration of Life for Mike on Saturday at Hermitage Funeral Home, time is undetermined at this time but will be announced soon. Danny Gibbs and I would like to take up money and send a beautiful flower arrangement for the service from the DuPont Bulldogs. Mike truly loves his school and classmates so we think this would be a...
