Christmas 2010

Been away for a while. Busy is not an understatement.

Completing a wonderful Christmas 2010 with the family. Grand kids are growing up so fast. Each with their own distinct personalities. Courtney, Kyle, Brynn and Sophie Dog have been here with us for over a week while Greg completes a surgery rotation in Ft. Worth at JPS Hospital. Creates a great envirnoment for Chris and I over the holidays since we are home for the two week winter break.

All the kids were with us on Christmas day.Greg was able to get off for Christmas eve and Christmas Day. This made Kyle and Brynn very happy (Courtney too). Clay, Codie, Gage, Emeri and Ellie spent the day with us. It is great to have them all in the house at one time. Creates long term memories for later in life (I hope). Kathleen and Andree were with us as well. We cooked steaks instead of the traditional turkey/ham dinner. It was very good. Courtney and Codie made great desserts. They are wonderful Mom's, and Clay and Greg are great Dad's. I am very proud of them.

Chris and me are very fortunate in having all of them in our lives. Will make for much excitement over the years as they experience life.

Life is wonderful and full of so many blessings.

5th Grandchild is Here.

Ellie Ann-Louise Chrietzberg arrived May 18 at 11:19am. 7.4 pounds and 18.5 inches. She is of course beautiful. She certainly has her mother Codie's and MiMi Chris' genes. Her sister Emeri and and brother Gage love her and have accepted her into their lives. So proud of Clayton and Codie for providing another special child into our family.

Still Enjoying the Grandkids

Still enjoying our grandchildren. Watching them grow and develop into individuals with their own unique personalities. Seeing them every few weeks or so allows us to note the changes in thier individuality. Life is good. Thanks to out children for providing these new members into our family.

New Year

A new year is upon us. 2010. Looking forward to watching my grandchildren continue to grow and develop into wonderful youngsters. Awaiting the arrival of grandchild number 5 in May. Life is good. Proud of my children and what they they have given me and their mother.

Start of School

Anxiously awaiting tomorrow morning and the return of the teachers to campus. Looking forward to a great school year.

In addition I am eagerly awaiting the arrival of our new granddaughter Brynn Michelle. Family Baby Shower is in about a month. MiMi bought the "stuff" for the shower today.

Grandchildren are one of the best blessing given by God to "old Folks" such as myself.

Excited about beginning my first venture into the cyber world.
