A Wonderful Weekend

My Easter couldn't have been any better! Shawn called me in the morning & said that he might not make it over afterall, so Jim & I decided to go to a friend's house as we were invited over earlier in the week. About an hour after we got to our friend's, I get a phone call from Shawn telling me that he's on his way & so is Toni & my granddaugther. Ummm.....we're not home! We had already made plans to go out to dinner with our friend & his son, so I just told Shawn to meet us there & I would buy him, Toni & my granddaughter dinner.....I knew he wouldn't pass that up, lol. Here's just one of the many pictures I took.....my son & granddaughter.....priceless!
Afterwards, they followed us home & I got to have my granddaughter go with us in my car.....she kept talking & talking the whole way home. Gosh, I love listening to her voice :) She found my Tony Little Gazelle Glider (I decided to break it out since I still haven't decided between getting a treadmill or joining a gym yet) & wanted to know what it was, so I jumped on it to show her how it worked.....BIG mistake! LOL She couldn't stay off of it afterwards. And as she was using it, she kept saying "Exercise, exercise, exercise." It was so cute! I guess you had to be there, lol.
Here she is in her pretty Easter dress.....now I gotta find scrapbook paper to match it ;) Yep, he hair is much shorter now.....Toni cut probably 6" or more off of it because she said she had too many problems trying to take care of it.
And here she is in Gamma's arms :) That's Toni in the background.
The proud Pop Pop, as she called him :)

Tomorrow, Jim goes back to work after being off for 4 days. I've truly enjoyed having him home, but now I have to get back into my routine tomorrow, which is never easy! Now that I have some new pics to scrap, I may just spend the day doing that :) Besides, it's supposed to snow/rain all day.....fun!

Till next time,
Benita
