My Granddaughter is Growing Up
I took this picture this evening when we took both grandchildren out to eat at a locally owned pizza place.They both look forward to this weekly meal out together with Ken and me.
Granddaughter Mariah is growing up.Hard to believe that a week from today she will be turning 5.These years have flown by.So glad she is actually wanting to smile and pose for pictures now.Back a few months ago whenever she saw a camera she would either hide her face or frown.Glad she is cooperating with my cameras now.It makes for a very happy Nana!

Happy Nana Birthday
It's my birthday and I will complain if I want to.I ordered my birthday cake from a local grocery store bakery which will remain nameless.
The cake was suppose to read Happy Birthday Nana.What do you see? Happy Nana Birthday.
It wasn't decorated the way I requested.I requested white icing which I got.The rest is all WRONG.The cake was suppose to be trimmed in green with yellow roses.This doesn't look anything like that!
Sure hope it is fresh.I have had to take a stale birthday cake back to another store for a refund a few years back.If it wasn't for my grandson enjoying birthday cake celebrations so much I would have refused this cake.
I am going to search my files for a picture of a previous birthday cake that was done right to show what I really wanted!

Feels Like Winter Already
So glad I took this picture two weeks ago.I took this picture outside our front door looking across the street to the wooded area.What a lovely view we have in the autumn.Here it is two weeks later and it feels like winter already.Our trees changed earlier than usual this year.There are still leaves on the trees but most have turned brown and ready to fall if they haven't already.
It is only 40 outside with a chance of rain mixed with snow over night.
Grandson Jeremy was suppose to have soccer playoffs this weekend.It has been cancelled due to three factors:the weather forecast,lots of sick players and poor field conditions.We are so glad that the play offs were cancelled since it is too cold for the children to be playing soccer when most have them have either been sick or are sick already.
Our grandchildren have had the illness that has been going around in our area.They are calling it an upper respiratory infection but our grandson seemed to have all of the flu symptoms even though the test for flu came back negative.
The week ahead looks to be rather nice compared to the week just ended.We can only hope!
