Ok this proves that the kids know me so well!

SHE is Here!

Thanksgiving Prayer for OUR NEW GRAND BABY
"O Saint Joseph, you witnessed the miracle of birth, seeing the infant Jesus born of your most holy spouse, the Virgin Mary. With wonder and awe, you took into your arms the Savior. With gratitude that only a parent can know, you glorified God for the birth of his Son, entrusted to your fatherly care.

Like you, St. Joseph, I too give praise and glory to God for the birth of a beautiful child. This child’s life is such a miraculous testimony of God’s loving presence. My heart is filled with grateful joy. Join me dear St. Joseph, in offering thanks to God for the gift of this child.

What great trust and confidence God placed in you, St. Joseph, by entrusting his only Son into your fatherly care. This inspires me to entrust the spiritual care and protection of this newborn child into your competent and loving hands. Teach, guide, and support her parents Javajava and Pooker to fulfill well their awesome vocation to be a worthy parents to Our Precious New Grand-baby! Amen."

Thank you to all of our friends that have been praying for this precious child. We are in love, to say the least. J and I are thrilled to now be grandparents (still working on our names!) 
Mom and baby are healthy and under the watchful eye of dad who is ready to help if either needs anything.

Happy Birthday Baby!
Happy Mothers Day Pooker! 
Happy 1st wedding anniversary to Pooker and Javajava!

Tea Party

Twin Beautiful ~ Twin Adorable

So a tea party was planned and prepared for. The twins sent invitations they went to the big kids and their friends. Do-Lo was the guest of honor. It was planned as soon as we were allowed to have gatherings.

While we discussed the news that the baby was fine and Pooker was not in labor, the twins sat by the door waiting to greet their guests.  Pooker and JavaJava dressed and attended the party via phone while dad and mom were banished to the upstairs. 










A great tea party was had by all. The interesting thing is that these two 7 year olds were able to get grown men dress up to have tea with them. I am impressed. Love these people!

Dad's Hair

5/1

5/1
One of the fun things that has been happening around here is that the twins have enjoyed fixing dads hair.

5/6
Dad stocked up on treats to reward his hair dressers before we were on lock down. Twin Beautiful will work very hard for those treats.

Where to Stand

Every where you go there are lines on the floor and notes about where to stand, and how to social distance. 




If we were able to rename church then we would be able to back to church.
Just stand behind the blue markers.










This one is history in the making.

Sunday Fun!

We all sit around waiting for the big news from Pooker. So far no news. Poor Pooker is due to have that baby's any time. The kids sat around, chatted while dad cooked dinner, talked to TX and then played some waffle ball! 







Dinner was delicious! Yum!
