Welcome! We are a Christian family who cares for elderly individuals in our home. There are so many quotes, stories, and photos that we wanted to share with our precious "Golden Girls'" families, which they could view quicker and could be updated easier on this blog than we would ever have time (and memory!) to share with them personally. We also thought others might enjoy reading and viewing along with the families on this great adventure of their loved ones' golden sunset years. So sit back, relax, and enjoy your visit with us and "The Grandmas"!

February {Part 1}

We had a very full and fun February! It always is and it probably always will be due to the birthdays and holidays that seem to come quite regularly every.single.year. ☺

I decided to space out our past month's happenings into several posts in order to keep us all from falling asleep at the monitor from an hour of reading in one sitting. Besides, what better way is there to give me more time to prepare subsequent posts? ☺

Well, here's Part 1 with fun days with the B. girls and three birthdays. Enjoy!

Johanna has so much fun with her friends

On our way to the mall...

...at the mall ☺

Off to the park!

After rounding the pond on bikes, posing for the camera



Attempting to keep from falling in the frigid water...

...and have fun at the same time

Dinner with the rest of the family

All dolled-up for church! We had fun with you, girls!

Then, on Feb. 6th somebody had to go on and grow up...

Birthday dinner: Papa John's...

...and Mrs. Smith's Blackberry Cobbler

Birthday massage...wait, who's birthday is it anyhow?

Vanessa then had to turn another year older on Feb. 8th. Why isn't she in the picture with her b-day breakfast? Let's just say she's not a morning person ☺(btw, neither am I. But as the cook I kinda had to be awake)

Yummiliciousness...White Chocolate Strawberry Cheesecake

Beautiful; inside and out

...And just a tad bit strange, I might add.

18 years old! Just can't believe how fast the time has gone. Love you, V-ster!

On Feb. 11th Grandma Lorry turned...83!

We had a small family party on her birthday since...

...her celebration had taken place a few days before. 

Vanessa and I took a day to go out to eat and an evening symphony orchestra.

And the Lord blessed us with a new 8-passenger vehicle! Just the right shade for Valentine's Day...which brings us to Part 2 of our February 2012... coming soon!
