Madison's 7th Birthday...Dec.2, 2010

Today I surprised Madison at school and took pictures of all her classmates at lunch. Her mom, Maureen, read a story to the class call The Christmas Trolls by Jan Brett. I gave her a Silpada bracelet as a little surprise before we have the family birthday party tomorrow. Birthdays are such a big day for kids and adults as well...Happy Birthday, my sweet Madison!

Knitting Lessons with the Girls

Well, here is the novice teaching the girls how to knit.....kinda funny but they took to it pretty well. Mackenzie has finished her first scarf and Caroline is well on the way to completing hers too.

Bowling with My Four Grandchildren

Veteran's Day today and the kids have off....so we planned a fun afternoon by going bowling and Madison joined us too. We also went to my new favorite restaurant in town ......Joey's Pasta House. It was soooo yummy and the kids loved it. Quote from R.J., "It is very elegant but casual".

All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth

Madison lost her 1st front tooth on Monday, Nov. 1st, 2010 and now she has a big hole in her smile. It's a good thing her school pictures have been taken already.....

Vacationing in Marion, N.Y.

My 2 weeks commence today with my "grands". Life is good. Unfortunately, I am battling a cold but I know I'll be better soon! It does feel a little funny without the dogs...we miss them.
