IN AND OUT AND ALL ABOUT...

Hello Friends and Family,

How can it already be the end of July? Where does the time go?

I have been busy to say the least. I got laid off from my work this month and so I am looking for a new job to replace the old one which I will really miss.

Big Grizz and I went camping with friends over the 4th of July holiday. That was a blast. We have to do it more often! We live in such a great and beautiful country. I will post pictures when I get another moment or two.

This weekend I am ditching Big Grizz and going on a road trip with the Sushiboy family. Our cousin is getting married and I am going with them. Big Grizz has to work. Bummer.

Well - Love and Hugs to you all. See ya later.

We will miss you Grandma!

My Grandma passed away this evening. She is the Grandma that we went to see in the Boise trip mentioned in my last post. I will miss her dearly and I am glad that she does not have to be in pain or feel sick any more. She can now be with Grandpa and my Mom & Dad & brothers in Heaven. I have so many wonderful memories of Grandma.

Grandma's Hugs Are Made Of Love!

Everything my grandma does
is something special made with love.
She takes time to add the extra touch
that says, "I love you very much."

She fixes hurts with a kiss and smile
and tells good stories grandma-style.
It's warm and cozy on her lap
for secret telling or a nap.

And when I say my prayers at night
I ask God to bless and hold her tight.
Cause when it comes to giving hugs
my grandma's arms are filled with love!

Just thought that I would post a couple of picture of our trip to Boise. Big Grizz and I and the Sushi Boy Family went and visited with Sushi's and my Grandma and the Aunts & Uncles & Cousins from that side. It was good to see everyone as it has been a while.

Just Another Manic Monday

And away we go . . . This week should be an interesting one. Monday mornings are the hardest at work because they are very busy and there is always so much to do. I am finally over me sickness except for a bit of a scratchy throat a lingering cough. I'm so glad to be feeling better. Big Grizz and I and the Sushi Boy family are going to go to a family reunion at the end of the week in Boise, ID. It is at least a 5 hour drive to Boise so we will have tired bums. It will be good to see our extended family though & spend some quality time with Sushi Boy, Superwoman, Cookie Monster, and Cakes.

Last Thursday, Cookie Monster and Cakes came to our house to play while Superwoman did a cooking party. Big Grizz suggested that we get together with Tigger and Sis and Dukka Dad. We had so much fun!! After we had played for a while Big Grizz suggested that we go to "Gourgeous George's" It was a game that his Dad played with him when he took them out for a treat at a local fast food restaurant. It is one of the and his sisters' favorite memories with their Dad. We ended up going to McDonald's for ice cream and to play in the kid's area. Big Grizz loves to










play with the kids and tease them too. He is the best Uncle ever! They love him to pieces. Here are some pictures of them eating their ice cream.
