Surprise!

Today I went to visit my niece and when I walked in the door, she greeted me with a big smile and said "I have something to show you on the computer!" I thought maybe she had started her own blog. Imagine my surprise when I saw my own face smiling back at me as the "Featured Member" on the Faith and Family page! Well, I can't imagine that I did anything to earn this honor, but honored I am!

Thanks Anne, it turned out nice didn't it? We are altogether so little now the girls are so busy. We had a really fun day th 4th! Where did you go for fireworks? We ended up in Pewaukee on the lake front. Very cool! Leaving a prayer for them today on FF. They are both gone for awhile and so glad they will be back soon. Not sure what I'll do when college rolls around. Have a wonderful day! Love you!
