Have I mentioned what a truly Amazing Family I have?? Sometimes I have to pinch myself just to make sure I'm not dreaming. My life has been so blessed with my children and grandchildren. I could not love any of you any more than I do, whether you are children of my womb or children of my heart and I want you to know that. I would walk through fire for any of you and that will never change. I am also so thankful for my extended family in Illinois that welcomed me with unconditional love when they didn't have to. You are all so precious to me. (okay, are you getting a bit nauseous??? I can change the subject now)
Did I mention how jealous all of my friends are of my family?? I LOVE IT!
I just got back from a trip to Rick and Beth's house in Henderson, NV last week. I flew out on Wednesday the 16th and then back last Tuesday the 22nd. I don't know what kind of a time tunnel I got into but I swear it seemed like I was only there a couple of days. The time just flew by. We had a ball! We pulled the camper down to Chula Vista, near San Diego on Friday and stayed until Monday. We played games (Texas Holdem - yeah Bradley kicked our butts) and enjoyed some great Greek food, Seafood, Mexican Food and some kickass Margaritas! It was just so much fun, I can't wait to do it again. We also went to SeaWorld and spent the day on Saturday. On Sunday we had a party with a Dora the Explorer Cake for Ella's 3rd birthday. You can see some of the pictures on Beth's blog. I could put some on here if I knew how but that ain't happening yet. I just hate that we are all so far apart. I guess I will spend my time just traveling to see all the kids from here since I have not re-listed my house yet. I thought I would wait a couple of months since the market is tanked anyway. That way I can leave it messy sometimes....ha ha
My next big trip will probably be to Jason and Mandy's in Houston....although I do have another granddaughter's birthday coming up in February so if they don't come here I will probably go there to Louisiana. That is the good thing about traveling South in the winter. The weather usually cooperates and I can drive there. It is a little to "iffy" to drive to Arkansas this time of year unless it is absolutely necessary cause when you see the sign that says "Bridge May Ice" you better believe it WILL ice and your ars will end up in the ditch! and don't even THINK about driving to Illinois ;-)
I guess I am done with blogging for tonight....can ya feel the love??
over and out

You don't know how blessed we are to have you. I remember telling someone hateful, that if I couldn't have my sister, I would take you because (1) you fish, (2) you can't wear my clothes so no fighting there and (3), you are the best sister a girl could have. Now we are going to La and Fla and will stop at your house on the way home if you are there and we don't meet you in the middle. Love your big sister, Rett
