Happy Birthday Nedra!


Happy Birthday Grandma!

I love you, I hope you like my picture and I’m sorry I can’t go to your birthday. Today is Friday and we will have a treat and movie, sorry you can’t come. I love you, Bye.

-Jack


Wawa’s Happy to you!

-Leyla


Dear Grandma Ned, Happy Birthday to you! I wish I could go to your birthday, but I can’t because I have school. So, I am sending you a picture and wishing you a happy birthday.

-Owen


I just can't say enough how much we love and appreciate Grandma Ned. From day one she has been completely supportive and interested in our lives. From planning a wedding reception for us to traveling overnight to see our new born babies in the hospital to sending the funnest packages for each and every holiday, she's truly amazing. Although we only see her a couple times a year she has made a point to know her grand kids and to keep up with our lives. I have always appreciated how much she does to keep us (mainly me :) informed on everything happening in the family, as well. Ned, you will always be my favorite mother-in-law!

Good Luck Santa!

Santa may not come through on these Christmas lists this year!

The boys helped Leyla decide what to put on her list. She finds that dang drum playing Elmo at every single store we go to, sits down in front of it and just stares in amazement!


As you can tell, Owen doesn't like to put much effort into his writing, something we're desperately trying to change. I'll help you out a little. He wants a yellow remote control plane, a pogo stick, a scooter, a skateboard, a computer, and a jet pack (because what little boy doesn't want a jet pack?)



And then we have sweet Jack who actually put some effort into his Christmas list. He wants a rubber T-Rex, a number two Batman castle (he got one for his birthday and now there's another one), a ninja sword (I didn't know they used swords), a remote control shark, and a Crayola glow dome.


Does Santa ever send back the lists stamped "re-do"?
