Mr & Mrs Blake Grigsby

Blake and Jessica took some gorgeous pictures.  I love that they are so in love.  They make such a great couple.  They do complete each other.

I am always ready to see the new pictures that they have made.  I know Blake well enough to know that he could care less about getting photo's made but he does it for his beautiful wife. 

 

Fall Decorations

I have been wanting to decorate this corner of our porch for awhile.  Kyndall and Mellissa bought me the big mum and the big pumpkin.  Really made this area pop with color.  Am loving these decorations.

Let Kyndall help place the decorations.  She is such a good helper.  I am trying harder to let her do things herself instead of taking over.  How cute are her unicorn house shoes?  

For Christmas I am going to use a white bench with a few decorations on it. Hopefully the neighbor's dogs do not try to run off with my items.  I also need to redo my big vine wreath it's starting to look a little worn from being outside for years.  I think I will make that my new craft project for 2022. 

 

Aaron and I

Aaron and I at a family funeral. 

My Uncle Tommy passed away and I was so grateful that Aaron came to the service.  He rode his motorcycle  and was invited by the motorcycle group to ride as a escort in front of the Hearst with them. He was so excited.  

They also invited him to join their group that "aides" with all military funerals. I told him he should consider joining them. He could hang out with a group of good guys. Plus it would give him something to do on his downtime.  He really needs a hobby outside of his family time. 

I hope everyone is having a great day! Be safe and be well!!!

Cheers,

Karen

 

Garage Sale Day with Kyndall

Kyndall wouldn't let me help her carry her garage sale finds into the house.  This is a box of tea set items.  I will let her help me wash them before we play with them.

We are styling on our way to the Garage sales.  I do not wear sunglasses very often. 

Kyndall is using her ironing board as her table for the tea set goodies.  It is a perfect height for her to stand and play. I am going to keep my eyes out on a little table and chairs for the grandchildren. 

 

Baby Lane

Baby Lane is adorable!  Brody and Savannah are the proud parents of this handsome little guy. Lane looks so much like Brody/  Although I do see his moma in him as well. 

Proud Gramps!  Luther's eyes sure light up every time baby Lane comes to visit us.  I wish  we could see all the grandbabies every single day.  This little man is already growing up so fast! 

Being a grandma is the best feeling in the world. 

Little Lane sure is growing up way to fast! 

 

Mexican Casserole Recipe

This casserole has to be our all time favorite.  It is always a big hit for our children when they come to visit us.  

We tend to make it a little different each and every time we cook it.  I like to add black olives to it as well.  Where Luther likes to add whole corn to his when he makes the casserole. 

I really need to find some new casserole recipes to try on the weekends.  Seems like lately we are eating the same ole things every singe week.  It gets easy to get in a food rut.  Luther and I do have way different taste in food.  So sometimes it is hard to find something we both agree on to try.

If you have a favorite casserole recipe please send it to me.  Would love to try a new recipe to us. 

 

Tyler living abroad

My brother is living his best life abroad.  There is no way I could do this bike adventure in the air. Oh my gosh looks fun but I would be so scared.  I would have to pass on this adventure.  

This young man has been a role model for so many in our small community.  

I see Tyler as a brave soul who will do whatever it takes to make his goals.  I am so lucky to call him my brother.  He never stops studying.  For his job he has to learn the language as well as the culture.  I do think Tyler is one of the smartest young men I know personally.
