Happy bday Tara!!!

This is our daughters birthday!!!! I am so proud of the person she has grown up to be.  She is so loved by her family and friends! She is appreciated by the girls schools and teams!  She is always willing to help others. She has always been there when I needed her and when her dad needed her. We have been through quite a life together with a lot of laughs and good times.  We gave her our heart and everything we could. She gave us two beautiful grand daughters.  Happy Birthday Tara! You don't look 41. You are as beautiful as always!!!!

Happy Birthday Joshua!!!!

Today my grandson turns 10 years old!!!!  I love that kid!  He is unique with a sarcastic personality! He also has the humor that goes with it!  And he is so darn cute!!!!  He is going to be one handsome man when he grows up. He kind of reminds me of his Uncle Ryan when he was little.

What a sweeeeeeetheart!!!!!

I need to wake up! Weird day yesterday.

Another beautiful day in paradise. The sky is such a pretty blue. There is a slight breeze. The hummingbirds are hungry. And I got to wake up to two amazing grand daughters at my home. We were suppose to have 3 but Madi wasn't feeling well last night after the game and didn't come home with Riley and Lauren to my house. She is ok today. I worried about her.  Not often she would miss a sleepover with her cousins. It was pretty late when we got home so the girls ate and watched movies. I


I went to bed and before I did I gave myself my first insulin shot.  I was scared.  Lanny and I went to the doctors and my friend Beth, who is a nurse there, showed us how to give myself a shot. It was easier than I thought it was until last night. Then I was afraid I forgot everything last night when it was time. I was trying to read everything and Mr. Nondirections is rushing me through it. I did it with the girls watching. Lauren laughed, of course.  I have to give myself a shot every night. I can't believe it is gotten to this. My prayer is when I get my levels down I will start to feel better. It only makes sense, right?

Last night Karla's team had two games on Varsity Field.  First game we won by a couple points. The second one we lost.  The second one was against Derence and Jessica. Love those guys! It was a fun game and Dylan had played great!  The first game was not so fun.  The pitcher on the other team ran over to home plate to tag Dylan out (who was running home).  When the 3rd baseman threw it to her it flew in REALLY fast, missed her mitt and smashed her right in the face.  It sounded like something cracked and she got knocked down on her back (like someone punched her in the face...but it was a softball).  It was unreal how quickly it all happened. She was pouring blood and I am surprised it didn't knock her out!  Everyone was pretty shook up.  A guy on their team took her to the doctor.  My friend who owns Blue Sky Printing with her husband facebooked me this " Hi Joyce. Just saw your comment on a string of comments regarding a softball player getting hit in the face and some people were wondering who she was and if she is okay. It sounds like it was one of our employees, Amy Miller. She pitches for a local Poulsbo team and she took a ball to the face last night. X-rays determined no broken bones, but she was quite bloody and swollen in the photo she sent. She's a tough one, and came in offering to work today even though I told her last night not to come in! We sent her back home, of course—she could barely talk because of the swelling and the pain. Thought I would share this with you since I was unable to post a comment with the info..."

I am so tired today  I was on the phone until after 11 just talking with one of my grandkids. What a blessing that is.  Today I spent some time on the phone talking with another one. It love it. I am tired today.  I may need a nap for sure. I don't have a picture to post today...but I did want to update about my health.  Hope you have a great day!!! xoxo
