I missed getting this post done yesterday, so I’m catching up today. The last Wednesday of every month Sheaffer and Shay host this link-up, and every once in a while I participate. This is one of those once-in-a-whiles! Read more
HE’S HERE!
Got a text from Danny today at 12:07 p.m. CT, which would be 8:07 p.m. in Vilnius.
We also have been told he is 21.26 inches long and has lots of hair. Mom and baby are doing well.
Talked to Danny on the phone late this afternoon. Erin went into labor around 10 or so last night, which would have been 2 in the afternoon here. So close to 21 hours later, give or take, she delivered her firstborn!
He already has my heart! Can’t wait until I can hold him! The name has not been decided yet, so we are anxious to find out what to call this sweet boy. For now, I’ll just call him PRECIOUS! 🥰
Let’s Look at My Pet Peeves!
Linking up with Erika and Shay for their monthly Let’s Look! The topic is pet peeves. I think I’m a fairly positive person for the most part. The one post that I do on a regular basis is my monthly favorites, in part because it helps me look back and be grateful for the happy times. I do think we all have our personal pet peeves, though, and here I’ll list a few of mine in no particular order. Read more
March 2023 Favorites!
We’re already 6 days into April, and I’ve been thinking for those 6 days of how I need to get this post done. So here it is! March was a great month, and I have seven favorite happenings to look back on and share.
February 2023 Favorites!
March is here! YAY! Bring on the Spring! My favorite season of the year! But before I get too carried away thinking of all things Spring, I need to pause and look back at all the good things February gave to me…and there were quite a few!
January 2023 Favorites!
February is here! Time to look back through January and remember my favorite things, events, and activities! January typically is a month that drags by and seems to last forever to me, but this January went by fairly quickly.
Nov/Dec 2022 Favorites!
It’s pretty unusual for me, but I got all the way through November and only had one favorite on my list for the month. Rather than do a favorites post with only one item, I decided to wait and combine November with my December favorites.
Golden in Antigua!
Two days before our 50th wedding anniversary, Big Eagle and I were up around 3:30 in the morning getting ready to head to the airport and begin our week-long celebration in Antigua! We first flew to Miami and connected there to continue on to Antigua. It was late afternoon when we arrived at our resort: The Blue Water Resort & Spa on the north side of the island!
Our Lithuania/Poland Trip!
On the last Tuesday of October, around 4 in the afternoon, Big Eagle and I boarded our flight to Frankfurt! From there we connected to Helsinki, and finally arrived in Vilnius, Lithuania late Wednesday afternoon. Our son Danny and his wife Erin picked us up at the airport. I’m excited to finally share about our trip! The number of pictures I took is CRAZY, and I really had a hard time narrowing them down. To say that this is a heavily-loaded photo post is an understatement, so consider yourself duly warned.
October 2022 Favorites!
This is a L-O-N-G overdue post today! Around mid-October, my dog Annie died, so that pretty much overshadowed everything else for a while. I’m still missing her. The house seems lonely without her in it. There WERE favorite moments during the month, though, and life does go on, so the happy moments need to be shared. I’m starting it off with some news I’ve been keeping bottled up for quite some time now, so let’s get to it! Read more
