March 19th - Go KU, for a little bit

Some people might call me a fair weather fan when it comes to KU basketball, I say I am a realist who usually goes with the past performances to make my calls. My background is analysis as we know. We had a great time cheering on KU during the tournament, celebrating wins, singing The Chant, but ultimately were saddened by the loss. I told people not to pick them to win, when they are ranked #1 it isn't good for their stats. Oh well, here is Gracie cheering on her Jayhawks. Though Jessica was a Crimson Girl, I think she would be proud of Gracie's attempt at being a cheerleader. She is getting the pose down!

Now I need to get the video of her saying "Rock Chalk Jayhawk, Go KU" when we were cheering them on with Julianne. She will always be a Jayhawk fan! Gracie did so well entertaining herself by watering plants and playing with Teddy during the game. Now to post a photo of Gracie in the dress Vi got from Hawaii. Adorable doesn't even do the dress justice.

Other KU celebrations will be coming, they did give me a great birthday gift.

Early March 2011 - Where does the time go

So I am only behind about two months, which isn't much...haha: multiple birthdays, family gatherings, fun times, and great stories aren't captured. I will do my best to remember.

Early March we went to Fort Collins to celebrate our friend Melissa's birthday. The guys stayed home with the kids as the ladies took a brewery tour. It is hard to say who had more fun the kids or mothers. We did get a photo of Gracie & Abigail, man they grow way too fast.

After on celebration we moved to another, Margie's birthday right before they left for Hawaii. Gracie loves her Nana & Papa very much, as you can see by the smiles here. When Gracie says her prayers at night they are usually the first on the list. It is such a blessing that they are able to spend every other Friday with her. The bond between grandchild and grandparent is so amazing, especially with the loving grandparents Gracie has.
