November 23, 2014

A quick blog before church this morning.  We know Griffin's, aka Finn, debut is soon, just not sure exactly when.  The range of emotions in the past few weeks for me has been overwhelming.  I absolutely can't wait to meet her officially.  I already know her, know she is loved beyond words, know she is protected by wonderful parents, aunts, uncles, grandparents, great-grandparents and countless friends and family.  Cindy, I know you are so proud of Anna.  She and Ryan have created a loving home for Finn and will be wonderful parents.  She will know you and feel your love her entire life.  So, when Finn decides to grace us with her presence she will be showered with nothing but love!  I'll be back to blog VERY soon-
Love ya Sista!!

November...oh my what all do you have in store for us!!

So Fall is moving on and the year is flying by-how things can change in such a short period of time.  Addie is 21, can you believe it?!  Such a love, such an angel, so mature and she has your drive and determination.  She's making us proud each and every day-
Baby Finn is due any day now!  Anna and Ryan are ready and have the nursery looking great.  They are going to be awesome parents and she will be surrounded by love!  I know I'll be her great-aunt but I feel a little like a grandmama (crazy I know but my heart is just so full.)  Finn has more love for her already and she hasn't even made her debut yet!  I had some sweet teachers at school today holding my phone for me while I was in the pool with the 4th graders all day.  Just in case that text/call comes through while I'm out of reach.  Otherwise, that phone is attached to me.

It snowed in West Columbia on November 1st...did you have something to do with that :)  Snow brings up some great memories!  Thanks for bringing those on early this year-looks like we could be in for a cold, snowy Winter.

Election Day was yesterday-lots of things happening but for one the bond referendum passed and Lexington Two will be making some major improvements on the school buildings.  Springdale is due for the overhaul and Cindy's Place is still going strong.  Looking forward to a great year and more great things happening there.  I'll upload some pics during the next blog.  Should have some new action happening by then.

Our family is good-never a dull moment!  You're missed beyond words but we know we are who we are partly because of you!  So, you are in each and every day, in more ways than we can share.  I was cleaning out the storage room upstairs yesterday and came across this card you sent me.  I miss you...a whole bunch too!
