Our Easton Is ONE! (Already!)

I can't believe that we have had Easton with us for one whole year. It just doesn't seem that long since he joined our family.

He has been such a joy! He has such a different personality than Carter. A personality that reminds me of his Mother's. He is very determined and a go getter but tender hearted. I have the two cutest grandson's, don't I?!

They celebrated by going to Chuck-O-Rama for dinner. Easton loves to eat and so everybody went for a pig-out. Unfortunately I had to miss it because I got sick. It made me even more sick that I had to miss Easton's first birthday party!

After eating they all went to Christine's to eat cake and ice cream. Easton would hardly touch his piece of cake that Christine put in front of him. The frosting must have scared him or something because this kid usually will eat most anything put in front of him!

Well happy 1st birthday Easton. We love you!

ANOTHER PICTURE FROM BEAUTIFUL HAWAII

THANKFUL FOR MY IRISH ANCESTORS

I never knew how much Irish ancestry I had until my wonderful Aunt Carol wrote this awesome history about my Dad's ancestors. There are still 8 castles partially standing over in Ireland that belong to my ancestors. Most of them (14 of them) fought in the Revolutionary War so that I could enjoy what I have today. There is also some tie to Bunker's Hill and Breed's Hill.

St. Patrick's Day never used to mean much to me until I knew my ancestry. Now I take time to think about them a little bit more during that time. I am grateful to them for being so brave and courageous to leave so much of what they had to come to America and start new. I am somewhat what I am because of them. I can't wait to thank them in person some day.

THE TWO SIDES OF WINTER

Have you ever noticed that there are two sides to winter? There is the beautiful side. The sun shining on the snow on a crisp morning. The silent snow falling in the full moon. The quietness that a snowy night brings. I love so much about winter and the fun and beauty that it brings. But there is a sad and lonely side to winter. When we were coming back from the cabin the other night we rode through the desolate camp grounds. The picnic tables where barely poking their tops through the snow. Somehow it made me sad and lonely. I realized then that winter has two sides to it.
