A Day With Debbie

I was hooked!!! But I am glad it is over too! Don't know if either girl was the right one or not...time will tell! Mawanna or Sarah....Sarah won his heart....
This week-end Mike & I spent a lot of time looking for leather living room furniture, we have it narrowed down to one now---
It was cold and rainy Fri &Sat, but today(Tuesday) it was gorgeous outside...we ate at On The Border Sat afternoon with Mark & Lindsay, was good... Lindsay & I went to Dillards, I got Kaitlyn several outifts, she really liked her jean skirt and jacket----I am trying to plan out Spring Break for me and Kaitlyn--Lindsay will be off that week and spending precious time with her girls...I hope whatever I plan, we will have a ball together!

Mike was in Greenville for a few days----so, Lindsay and Mark were re-doing Madalyns room for her big "5" birthday, she is getting a big girls bed complete with pink canopy,pink bedspread, and pink walls---what Madalyn wanted! So, Madalyn and Loraly stayed overnight with ma...we had cheese pizza, m&m blizzards, and watched American Idol, and not to forget a bubble bath....bedtime---well, I slept with 2 little girls, a bunny and blankie, pooh bear, strawberry shortcake blankie, a Cabbage Patch puppy and a poodle--- did I say I slept!
Tonight, the Saxons are taking Madalyn out to Fuddruckers for her birthday, they were out of town for her party so they told her they would take her anywheres she wanted---Leigh picked her up this morning and took her and Paul to the Mayborn Museum to play and eat then home for the afternoon....

On Friday nite, Cam and his new friend Angela came to Waco---we all went to Texas Roadhouse to eat...
Saturday, we celebrated Madalyns "5" birthday a few weeks early...she had a movie theatre party, complete with cupcakes, pizza, a few friends, and to see the new release, "Curious George"! Everyone had a great time, even with the cold and ice outside!
After the movie we all came back to our house for dinner, I made chicken enchiladas...the girls played hard!
Sunday, we stayed in, cold and icy out...Cam & Angela left for Greenville around noon....
Daytona 500, need I say more.

Happy Valentines Day!!!

To My Sweetheart Mike, thank you for the pretty flowers, you always come thru for me!
For your love, for always being there for me, for our 3 children----I don't know what I would do without you! You are always so gentle and caring with me. I love the twinkle in your eyes when one of the grand-daughters hugs you, when you skip along with one of them in public, and always agreeing to go to Chuck E. Cheese even if you don't like their pizza! And for the unconditional love you show our children.

To my children, Amber, Cam,& Lindsay,
I am so proud of each of you, for all your accomplishments in life. Thank you for always being so respectful to your parents and loving us with all our flaws...even spoiling the girlies!
To Amber, for being a great mommy to Kaitlyn, for being there for her always and the courage to raise a child alone and being truthful about her real dad...I am proud of you for going to nursing school, you will make a great nurse, you have such a kind, gentle way with people...

To Cam, for being strong and going after what you want...for wanting that special someone to share your life with, you will make a great husband and daddy to someone special one day.....I am proud you were determined to go to school and finish up the 4 yr degree, I know it was tough at times! I am proud you took a job out of town, all alone, and are doing a great job!

To Lindsay, for being a great mom, for wanting to be home with the girls and just be a mommy!
You have such an ability to do things so creative. I know how much you love your little family!

To Kaitlyn, Madalyn, & Loraly, you are all 3 the best grand-daughters in the world and also the prettiest! I love you!
To Mark, thank you for being a good husband to Lindsay, for caring for her and your girls the way you do...

Today Paul came to play with Madalyn, I decided to get them out of the house for awhile, so we went to McDonalds to eat and play---on the way home we passed a day care with kids out playing...Paul commented to Madalyn that he wondered what those kids were doing there....Madalyn said, those kids don't have a grandma like my ma--- so they have to stay there....makes my day!

Lindsay took Madalyn to the kidney dr this morning for her post op check up on her kidneys, no reflux, both kidneys are doing great!
Another x-ray in 6 weeks to make sure everything is still good.

Nothing like Madalyn calling her ma and g-daddy saying to please come to her house and have cheese dip and chips with her----half time of the Super Bowl was spent with Madalyn and Loraly watching Shrek....

Last night we all met at the original ElFenix to celebrate papas b-day---his brother EL, wife, Fran, Betty Lou, his sister, her grandson, wife and great grandson, Mike & I, Wes, Sandi, Jenn and her boys, Glen, Susan, Natalie, Cam and his new friend, Angela and Doug/Dale....we all had a great time, food was wonderful...
Mike & I went with Cam & Angela to an Italian ice cream place after dinner in Oak Lawn and it was the best ice cream I have ever ate with only a few calories....in West Village....
Back to Waco for us....

It is Super Bowl Sunday, wonder who will win????

Today, Madalyn got to go to Pauls and play for the afternoon...Loraly is sleeping and it has been so quiet here! Loraly and I shared a warm bowl of chicken noodle soup and some pears, she actually ate more than me today!
It was a nice morning, it rained then a cold front came thru...
Cam will be here sometimes this afternoon, he came into town for an alumni meeting, he got to see some old friends and visit with one of his professors....
Amber & Kaitlyn have tickets to see Keith Urban---they were on their way to the concert, gave me a call, a friend had 2 extra tickets and she wanted to know if Mike & I wanted them----sooo, off we went to see Keith Urban, he can sing, play guitar, drums, and piano---was a wonderful concert! Thank you Amber!

Paul is here playing with Madalyn, they both ate a good lunch and now are playing...
Paul started his oral chemo this morning, Leigh said he took it really well. Yesterday, while in Ft.Worth, Paul and Leigh got to go to the rodeo...
He is really growing some hair back fast, hopefully, this oral chemo will not make Paul lose his hair again!
Praying for the study to get here...SOON!

Happy Birthday to papa, yesterday!!!!
I went to Lindsays today to watch the girlies, Mark & Lindsay were getting a new computer delivered and someone needed to be there to sign for it---the girls played good all day, they got to go out and jump on the new trampoline--I picked up the house for Lindsay....
