Sally, RuthAnn, and I went to card class this past week. As usual, we had a great time (though we did miss you Lynn,) went out to eat afterwards and I drove everyone to Lakeland and back in my new car. I really am in love with it. I have been waiting 15 years for a new car. This one has everything on it, navigation, bluetooth, music box (I can record my CD's into it and then don't have to have them with me), a fabulous 10 speaker stereo system, duel air, and it seats seven-room for the grandbabies-yeah.
At card class we made two cards using a different type watercolors. They were in small jars and we had to add water to them. They have a shimmer to them when they dry. They are really kind of neat.
I went to Tallahassee last weekend for Bennett's first birthday. It is hard to believe he is a year old already.
He is so cute and such a happy baby. The party was going to be a picnic at the park but the weather was not going to cooperate so they had it at the house instead. It was a wonderful party. Brooke had the cutest decorations, everything picnic oriented. She does and excellent job and maybe when she goes back to work she should think about changing fields from teaching to party planner.
Rice Crispie Treats flavored with Kool-Aid and made to look like a watermelon slice.
Bennett's smash the cake outfit. What a stud!

I had such a great time with Adam, Brooke, and the boys. Alex and Jessica came up too and Jessica you better watch out because it looks like Alex has a new girlfriend. I don't know her name, but she sure is adorable.
This is Jack telling me "No, Grandma, don't take my picture!"
What a little imp!
Jack is a better mood. We went out for breakfast and had a window table overlooking a small pond. Jack loves to go out to eat.
I bought myself a new camera like Brooke's, a Canon Rebel 3T and am enjoying getting used to it. It does take great pictures. I want to get the other lens, but it will have to wait for awhile. It is almost as expensive as the camera.
These are pictures of my Easter cards. I just love this honeycomb stuff.
Darla, Dale and the twins came over yesterday for dinner. We had the best time. The girls are so sweet and so adorable. Seeing them helps me not miss Jack, Bennett, Sasha, and Francois so much. They brought us all kinds of refrigerator artwork and a plastered square of their hand prints. I was going to do those of Jack & Bennett, and Sasha & Francois when they come, so now I have one of the girls too.
Emma with Katy and Gampy Spicer. She is partial to dogs and men.
Lily showing me her painted nails for Easter.
They love these dresses because they are great for twirling and we girls know how important that is to us.
Our Easter gift from the girls. They also gave me this beautiful box with, of course, Paris, all over it.
