It’s About Time..For Pink Saturday!

pink8

And it’s about time for a post..I’m still struggling with writing, and thinking, and writing..but will give it a go..

First a big thank you to our sweet Beverly who is our host…Please stop by to see her at How Sweet the Sound and also to visit my fellow Pinkies…Some of my favorite bloggers are Pinkies!

I thought I would share some of my favorite pink floral images today..We live in the desert and don’t have a lot of pink flowers here..Lots of orange, yellow and lots of brown sand and dirt, but not a lot of pink flowers..I have to invent my own!

Now I have a couple of pictures of my most favorite grandchildren, the FAB Grace Lily turned ONE on May 28th, we were able to attend her birthday party in Northern California, and our grandson, the JOLLY Jackson Scott, is just now 7 weeks old and growing like a weed!  Both are doing great and my son and his wife are surviving, too..Sometimes I think the anticipation is worse than the actuality!

It’s Not Pink…It’s Blue!

Well its been a very long time since I have posted on my blog..I still have not found my blog ‘voice’ back since I was so ill before the holidays..Not sure what is wrong but I feel like my brain is just not in blog mode, and will I even have anything interesting to write about??  Time will tell, I appreciate everyone who does read my blog when I do post, and love all your kind comments..and I do read your blogs on a regular basis, just not able to comment as much, probably due to same issues..I dunno..time will tell..

Happy Pink Saturday, but in our family, it’s Happy BLUE Saturday!  Last Saturday, April 21 at 9:17 pm our wonderful son and daughter in love  presented us with our first grandson, Jackson Scott Boyack..  He joins his big sister Grace Lily, who is turning 11 months old tomorrow!  Jackson was delivered by c section at 36 weeks due to complications that has kept Lainie on bedrest (sofa rest) since the first week in April..She was hospitalized on March 31st, and realizing that she would be on bedrest if they discharged her, Carl and I headed up here to Northern California on our 35th Anniversary, April 2nd.  We knew that if they discharged her from the hospital, with a 10 month old at home, I needed to be here to help…add to the drama, her mom was undergoing knee surgery on April 3rd, and although Cyndi is healing well, she will be using crutches for at least another week..timing is always wonky, isn’t it?  Anyway, Carl drove home a couple days after bringing me up here, and came back last Thursday..we are heading home tomorrow, I have been so blessed to be able to spend this time with the kids and Gracie..I would not trade these past few weeks for anything…we won’t be back now until just before May 28, as that is Gracie’s first birthday..so I will miss them all desperately, but I need to get home. 

Anyhoo, here are a few pictures of our little man in BLUE:

Thank you for indulging me today, we are very happy to have a beautiful granddaughter and grandson, and look forward to watching them grow and blossom!

Please stop by and leave a comment for our hostess Beverly at How Sweet the Sound.  She works so hard every week to host our Pink Saturdays..my goal from now on is to post on my blog at least once a week, for Pink Saturdays…if I set a goal, I might be able to get my act back together!

Thank you so much for stopping by and I love your comments!

Almost April Fools and a Very Pink Saturday

It’s been a while since I have posted for Pink Saturday, that I love so much..I am still in a mental drought and totally feel that I have nothing interesting to say or share..I am hoping as time goes on and I feel better and better my  thoughts and blog mojo will return soon.  I REALLY miss blogging..I do keep up with many of you via my Google Reader, thank goodness or Reader..I try to keep up best I can..

Well of course, m favorite PINK is my darling Grace Lily.  She just turned TEN months old..I can’t believe it, we will be celebrating her first birthday before we know it..and her little brother will be here soon, too.  My daughter in love is almost 33 weeks along now, her due date is May 19..Her mom Cyndi, her friend Danielle and I are hostessing a Little Man baby shower for her and my son on April 21st..It’s a cute mustache theme and will be coed and family..just a party, really..So Carl and I will be traveling up north around the 19th for a few days to participate in that!  Fun times!

Here are a few newer pictures of Grace Lily..she's just started walking last weekend and we have see her a few times thank goodness to Skype!

A rainy day!

Well I never get tired of looking at pictures of Gracie,  I hope I haven’t bored you to tears..she is my bestest pink!

I am here linking to Beverly at How Sweet the Sound; I hope you stop by to visit her and leave her a sweet comment..she does so much for all of us pinkies each and every week!  And thank you to all my followers who have stuck with me in my time of need the last few months, I keep waiting for my blogging mojo to return..Might be the medications I have been taking since December, most days I want to write a post  like a ‘normal’ person, and it just isn’t there.  I am counting on Pink Saturdays to pull me back into my normal ‘groove”!

Have a wonderful weekend, Easter is only one week away!
