On Wednesday my nephew Eric got married
and last night was their reception here in the
Gilbert area. So here is a picture of Eric and
LoraLynn Allen. My daughter Jodi came
and her and I went to the reception. Josh and
Ashley were going to go with us too, but then
they both ended up sick at different times
yesterday and we didn't want them giving us
all the bug. Jared and Jake are visiting at their
dad's house for a few weeks so they missed it
too. (I missed having all my kids there). Thank
you Jodi for coming. I always enjoy spending
time with my kids and grandkids. With Josh
sick yesterday and it being my day off I got to
have little Max over for the afternoon and we
had so much fun together. I didn't end up taking
any pictures to share. But he is such a sweet
kids. I really got lucky with having such awesome
grandkids.

Out having a day of fun playing pool.... :)

Here is a picture that Jodi sent to me of my
sweet little grandsons... Jack and Chandler.
I don't get to see them as much as I do Max,
so it seems there are more pictures of him on
my blog than these two little guys. But I am
a proud grandma and I love all my little grandsons
so very much!!! They are the joy of my life.
I love my kids and grandkids more than anything!!!

Having fun playing pool with a friend!!!!

This last Friday was my 50th Birthday!

Since we went to Geronimo for my cousins

funeral, my kids move the party we were going

to have to my parents house. It was very nice

under the circumstances. Thank you Jodi for

all you do for me. You are a wonderful daughter.

Here's my cake Jodi got for me.

Me blowing out the candles.... (no we didn't put
50 candles on the cake) :)

Some of the kids blowing their noise makers
for me.

Grandma Gayle and Madox.... he liked my

blue bow. He kept it on his head for

about 20 minutes till the other Grandma

(Grandma Jayne) said he looked like a girl....

then Josh took it off. :)

Me....and my cake

The cards my daughter made for me. She is so
talented.

This is just to honor my cousin and friend,
Vearl Holyoak. He had a heart attack this
morning and passed away. Here he is with
his family. He was like my big brother. I grew
up with him all my life. He was only 3 years
older than me. I will miss him so much. It is
not going to be the same going home and not
seeing him.
You will be greatly missed Vearl. I love you,
Rest in Peace!!!

Last night I went with some friends to the
LIFEHOUSE and DAUGHTRY concert in
Glendale. It was AWESOME!!!!!

Here are pictures of Lifehouse performing
on stage. It was cool how the lighting kept
changing to different colors.

Here is Rick Woolstenhulme at the drums.

He is my friend Annie's son.

After Lifehouse played, then DAUGHTRY played.

They were really awesome.

The guys in the very bottom of this picture is

the guys from Lifehouse standing in the sound

booth area watching Daughtry play after they

were done with their performance.

I didn't take very many pictures today, but
here are a few of my family visiting. They came
to spend the day with me and my boys.
Here is my daughter, son inlaw and two of
my sweet little grandsons.

Here are all three of my grandsons. Chandler
wasn't very happy at the moment.

Jason, Jodi and my mom.

My dad, Kevin, Shannon and their kids.

Today Jodi and Jason blessed their new baby
at church. What a precious addition to our
family.

The wind was blowing so our hairdos, especially

mine isn't all that great.... but it was a really

great day!

These are Jason's parents, Scott and Gayla.
