A Little Grandma Time (Click here to view my blog)



Remember the card that Ty is holding?  We celebrated Ty's 5th birthday on Monday.  He liked the card I made and is always so appreciative.  Colby is doing well and Carter was beaming at the wheel of the tractor!  What a delight to spend this time with our grandsons!  This is just a taste of the joy of being a grandparent!
