Milestones

I know it has been a long time since I've posted. Life has been very, very busy. But happy too. We had a wonderful, relaxing time with Hunky Hubby's sister & husband in Newport Beach. Wow, I saw a little bit of "Orange County Housewives" there--talk about bling. Not mine, understand, but it's kinda hard not to notice on others...

Our stop with younger son & grandsons was great. The donuts? Not so great. We need a a better recipe for sure! We tried using half of a packaged cake mix batter...don't recomment that. But failures are fun and really are better stories!

We were home for a few days and then drove to younger son's home again for Grandson #2's high school graduation. What a fun and happy event. Cap, gown, party, cake, presents--he was duly congratulated and saluted! We also attended his mother's graduation from Junior College. She has been working full time, raising their two sons, and been a part time student for many years. Now she has her AA degree and will transfer to a four-year university this fall. Milestones of life, for them and for us.

THEN we were home for 5 days and the high school graduate and his brother took their first road trip ALONE (no parents!) to our house. That was an achievement they had been waiting for so many years! They are here now, off golfing, while Hubby and I get a little rest time. The days are over-scheduled with every activity they can think of--movies, bowling, golf and more golf, Frisbee Golf...yes,they really like golf! We also will redo the donuts, and throw in some chocolate chip cookies, lasagne, BBQ...like I said, over-scheduled! But we are all smiling and happy for this day, which the Lord has made. Jan
