Time for a Haircut

I've had my hair long for quite a while
and I am really starting to think that I would like a "new do." I am thinking a cute bob. In honor of my new haircutting mood, I thought I would post this picture of my brother and I with Vince the Barber. We used to go
to him in our younger days. My brother
loved it as you can see.
Here's to a new haircut, hopefully next week.

Saturday Mornings with Papaw

Just remembering what it used to be like on Saturday mornings with Grandma and Grandpa! I get that same peaceful feeling with my David now too.

Longing for A Trip

Just adding a picture for today. The cherry blossoms in Northern Michigan, are beautiful-for sure. Man, Dave and I really need to take a little weekend getaway. My pics are proof of my longing-to go away for awhile.

Only One Left

Some kids don't have many feelings about their grandparents by the time they get to be my age. I on the other hand, have WONDERFUL grandparents. Yesterday my grandpa Jim passed way, making this the 4th funeral for us in one years time. I lost Papaw Morgan in Sept., my father-in-law in February, a good friend of the family in March, and now Grandpa Jim Reeves yesterday.

Grandma Viv, is the only one left-to love on, to learn from, to be loved by. There is something about the generation of those grandparents, that I find myself longing for more and more. I want to know and learn all I can from her. She raised her 6 kids, 2 nephews, and really helped in raising me too!! I owe a lot to her and my Papaw. She is the only grandparent I have left, so today, slightly saddened by that realization. I wanted to share her beauty with the readers of this blog. Grandparents are a gift, not to be taken for granted.

THANK YOU FOR SHOPPING-Weber-Mart!!

To all who helped out in buying from the garage sale we made over $800 for our trip to Kenya. We sold everything from enchiladas to a giant stuffed dog, cinnamon rolls to a burnt up wagon-for real-someone bought that. Aside from gettin a ton of cash for our trip, I also witnessed that one man's junk truly is another's treasure.

Thanks again. Love, Dave and Julie
