Granny turns 80!


Granny, a very young 80, with her great-grandkids from L to R: Grayson, Kate, Payten, Marilyn, Anna, Allison, Molly and William. Not pictured are Lucas and our soon-to-be newest addition Georgia (due in about 3 weeks)!

Well we survived our first road trip and lived to tell about it. Actually the girls were little angels and slept the entire drive. Unfortunately I didn't do nearly as well. I got sick in Corsicana, then Waxahachie, then Weatherford, you get the idea - all the way to Abilene. The good news was that the virus only last 24 hours so by Saturday afternoon I was fine. The bad news was that I gave it to Ryan so he was sick all day yesterday. However, I think we've turned a corner because we're both feeling fine today. I'm just praying we didn't give it to the babies. They seem ok so far, but you never know. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

But back to the weekend - we had a great time seeing the family and celebrating Granny's big day. I got to meet my cousin Erin's new baby Payten for the first time - about 7 months old and sooo cute. My niece Kate is the same age and they were fun to watch together. I enjoyed seeing my aunts, uncles, cousins and cousins' kids (what are your cousins' kids called, anyway?). I'll post some more pics of the trip soon but for now I need to go see a man about a baby....
