A whole handful

My daughter's sister-in-law snapped this sweet picture of me (on the left) and my daughters, 

Hannah (in the middle) and Bonnie (on the right).

I'm so grateful she captured us together.

My youngest granddaughter turned 5 over the weekend!

She's a whole handful now and truer words were never spoken!

My 7 year old granddaughter wanted to have a "slumber party" with me so all three children ended

up sleeping in front of the fire with me.

At one point I had me, Natalie, her giant stuffed octopus, and the big dog, Violet on one side of the

 sectional, Abigail on the other side, and Verne sleeping just beneath us in a cocoon of blankets. 

It was one of those very special moments when you stop to pay attention 

because you know it's not going to come around again. Needless to say I didn't get a whole lot of sleep.

HUGE snowstorm!!!

Just in case anyone anywhere anyplace in the USA didn't hear about it....

lots of snow and frigid temps!

I had snow days on Monday and Tuesday!

Yay!!!

P.S. This is not my car.

Tucker loved having me home for most of the week. 

We had a few conversations about who was going to stretch out on the couch...

he won most of them. He looks so comfortable I couldn't disturb him.

  1. Making memories with Grandchildren is the best. Your cat is so cute - I wouldn't have disturbed him either. Our son had a lot of snow too but still had to get to work although a bit later than usual. Lovely pic of you with your daughters. Have a good weekend.

  2. I absolutely love the pic of you and your daughters. And the sleepover!! that is one special time for sure.
    You guys out there got more than we did I think but wowza...these wind chills of -14 is killing my arthritis so I'm staying inside today.
    I do love that it's been a sunny week though.
    I hope you have a very restful weekend.

  3. If you must lose a night’s sleep, you found the way to do it!

  4. We arrived home to lots of snow. Grandsons had a full week off.
    I think the slumber party was a success.
    And I love that photo of you and your girls.
