I knew Garrett was going through a growing spurt, I just didn't realize how much. Not only is his voice slowly changing, but he is now 1 inch taller than me

This is his Spring picture from school

Tia sent me this email:

Hi Deb,

We are in Kansas for the wedding, but have had some upsetting news that I was hoping you could ask the group to pray for. My grandmother was admitted to the hospital this afternoon after experiencing flu-like symptoms. The doctor said that it was a kidney infection that had spread throughout her body. The admitted her to the ICU after her blood pressure wouldn't stabilze. Her plattelete counts were dropping so they moved her to the city hospital. My aunt called an hour or so ago to say that the doctor's don't think that Meme will make it for more than a few hours. The blessing is that things have moved quickly so she hasn't suffered much.

As I type this, my aunt just called to say that she had passed. We will be heading down to Oklahoma tomorrow sometime and the family still in St. Louis will drive down then or on Sunday. Please pray for safe travels for all those heading to OK this weekend and and for comfort for the family. She leaves 4 daughters, 1 son, 1 step-daughter, 1 foster daughter, 4 son-in-laws, 13 grandchildren, 12 step-grandchildren, 5 great-grandchildren and a large circle of friends. I am comforted by the fact that she will be in a better place and home again with my beloved Papa. Her name is Ruth McCormick Blesie and she was 74 years old, still substitute teaching and working afterschool and the local elementary school.

Bless you all and I'll be in touch,
Tia

Tia prayers said for your family. Thanks Deb for letting us know.

His picture came out great. Nick and Hunter's spring photos came out great this year too. I'll have to scan them in.

Thank you!

I would love to see yours. I do not have one for Riley, I guess they don't take Spring pictures at his school. I didn't even get a regular school picture because we were at Disney(bad mom, bad mom). Baseball pictures will be taken soon, so at least I will have that one!

Shopping! YAY!

I am trying to talk DS into a trip to the zoo with me. It is beautiful weather! I need to have DH go get propane for the grill. We have gone far too long without grilling!

Shopping! YAY! is right!! I had a BALL today. I had 4 sales people plus both daughters helping me at Coldwater Creek for about 2 hours. I did not buy as much as I had wanted, but I did pretty well.

One reason I needed quite a few new things is that this past week I hit the 100 pound milestone of weight lost. There was a sales clerk there who had gastric bypass surgery who has lost 190 pounds! We had so much fun picking out things that she understood would fit and flatter the figure I have now, which is a lot smaller, but a lot less "firm." Let's say those leftover traveler's cheques from the December trip certainly came in handy today!

Elizabeth - I hope you got to go to the zoo and grill out!

GREAT pictures, Robyn. Good luck tomorrow.

Happy Sunday everyone.
Had a great day Saturday @ Busch Gardens.
It is worth the drive about 90 min. from my place.
The rides, shows, animals are a lot of fun.
This was the 2nd time Ramiro & have been.
We love it, will do again & again.
I'll post some pictures later.

Jo - I am so glad you and Ramiro had a good time at Busch Gardens yesterday!
