Busy, Busy

Hockey season is finally over!!!! Hooray!!! Last Sunday, the boys had their final practice/round robin & received their trophies. Nana & PawPaw came for the event. They couldn't believe how well they skated, since they had never seen them skate before. Nana said, she would like to see a professional game, even though she could barely keep up with the boys' game! I told her it was extremely fast, but all she had to do was watch the puck!
Yesterday was Marty's birthday & St. Patrick's Day. My little brother turned 30! Happy birthday Uncle Marty!!! Today in Barnwell, Grandmama Marie, who is a lifetime friend of the family, who also became Papa's second wife after Mammie died (too soon after Mammie died, in my opinion), is being thrown a surprise birthday party by her children. She turned 80 this month. I think I am going to send her a journal for her to write about her life with our family & her & Papa from an "outsiders" prospective. I learned when Mammie died, that everyone has secrets & memories that shouldn't be forgotten. I gave Nana one for Christmas. I guess that is kind of the point of this blog. I write about things that happen & my feelings so that the boys can look back when I am promoted to heaven, & see & remember the way we were. Maybe they will see, that although we aren't filthy rich, we have a lot of love!
I have been a little lax on the word game the last week or two. I've got to get back on track with that. The Clemson Tiger Cross Stitch is progressing nicely! Oh, be sure & check out the website. We are working on acquiring a $300,000 house. I met with the folks yesterday, & told them I wanted to see what kind of response we got before we made a formal offer. They agreed.
