Here we are ~ Friday April 21.  I left Alabama on Thursday, April 13 and drove to Dallas (Grapevine actually). On Friday the 14th I met the Windsor L2L team a the Gaylord Texan ~ that was awesome to see!  The girls did well for their first time out ~ Sarah got second in speech, both got finalist in Songs of Praise, and their puppet show WON the seventh grade division.  On Monday, Kim and I drove back to Alabama.

Tuesday morning VERY EARLY I drove to Calera to help with Greyson and Briggs.  I had forgotten how tired little people can make me ~ but loved every minute of it .... well maybe NOT the stinky diapers.  I got to see Greyson's school and on Thursday before I left we had a little one on one at Burger King ~ ice cream and playground.

When I got back to our house last night Buck had bought KFC so I didn't have to cook ~ yea!

Today I am running errands for Mother, picking up some medicine at CVS, sitting at the library (at this time), and MAYBE going to watch Jakob run.  He has a two day event so I'm hoping to make it to one of them.

Tomorrow is Greyson's birthday party and that will end out week....

Good morning!  
Monday and I'm up and ready to get the week going!  I'll be driving Mother today and going to Walmart for a few things for my Dallas trip.  Tomorrow we will get groceries for the house, the car serviced, and watch Greyson play tee ball.  I forgot his cap on Saturday so I already have it in the car to take to the game tomorrow.
Hope everyone has a good week ahead and enjoyed the weekend just past.  We had Greyson with us for a couple of nights and it was wonderful.  He loves to play outside and that was great for me.  We kicking a ball around and went for a walk to see the goats that live down the road.
He is also a good builder (knock 'em down) so we did that and read books and watched a couple of movies ~ one way to get him to be still and relax before bed.  We always did that when Jakob and Topher would come spend the night with us.  They don't do that anymore ~ too big ~ too many other things going on.  
It may be Tuesday of next week before I post again.  Monday I will be driving.... and then Tuesday I will be helping with Greyson and Briggs.... so it may be Friday....  a Magra needs to rest sometimes.  :-)

Here we are on a rainy Monday morning at 5:15 a.m.  Why am I awake?  Who knows....
So, what are your plans for the week?  Mondays are one of the days I drive Mother around ~ not sure she'll go out today because of the rain.
We are having a gospel meeting at Sixth Avenue Church of Christ with a very dynamic speaker ~ David Shannon ~ until Wednesday night ~ 7 p.m. each evening 
Tuesday Jakob is supposed to run ~ not sure where yet.  Thursday Greyson has a ballgame AND we get to bring him home with us!!  Alas, we have to return him on Saturday.  

Hope you have a great week ~ see you soon.

Veteran’s Day in America Buck and Chuck were Navy Seabees,  Their dad was Navy Fleet.  Apparently VERY different.  Had to get some work done...
