Just wanted to wish you all a very "Happy Valentine's Day" and hoping that your spending your day with someone special.
I got to see all my kids today and my grand-babies...Colton is actually spending the night and is asleep and that's where I'm headed in just a second.
I just wanted to wish you all a Happy Day!
Tomorrow I will post new pictures of Hayden and Colton with their Valentine's.

Let's Get Physical
This post will be about excercise...ha...I bet you thought I was gonna talk about something else...Shame on you...ha!
I've been talking forever about exercising....it's been along since I've done so. At the beginning of the year I talked a friend of mine into going and getting a trainer to help with work outs but I had to back out because I had too many things going on that I couldn't commit to a certain day and time. She was good...she went without me and got a trainer.
So, that left it to me to fit it in. That started yesterday. Yesterday I started with a mile walk with Colton. He went in the stroller and I pushed. He enjoyed it. I think as long as the weather is good that will be a routine for both of us when he comes over....that happens at least twice a week but I do plan on walking daily as time permits.
Tonight I went to a work out class with my friend and neighbor Kelley. It was at the community center in our neighborhood and the lady doing it is an ex-personal trainer. Man you don't realize how out of shape you are until you raise this, squat that, punch this way, kick the other way all while going side to side. I'm sure there were other moves but you get the point.
I was tired when it was all over but after getting home I did start to feel better. Hopefully I'm on the way to a healthier me.
Tomorrow I have plans but hoping to get home in time for a walk with my friend.... and on Saturday, Colton will be back so hopefully it will be a nice day for us to walk again. He likes looking for deer...they are all over the place where we live.
This work out class is every Thursday and I plan to attend but I did forget that I can't go next Thursday cause I'll be in San Francisco but I do plan to go back the following Thursday. So Kelley if your reading this...sorry...I forgot I'm out of town.
Let's hope when I wake up in the morning I can get out of bed. Ha!
Well, I've kept up with 2 of my so called "New Years Resolutions" so far...let's hope this exercise routine will be #3.
Have a wonderful weekend!

I've Been Googled
I was playing around on the blog and saw where someone had visited my page via a click from a Google page....so being curious I clicked on the link and it took me to Google search...My blog page is on the search. If you search for "Bluewater highway after Ike" it will bring up results and there I am....The first time I searched it I was on page 1 and now I'm page 4. I just thought it was pretty cool and just had to share. Apparently someone was looking and searching for pictures from Hurricane Ike and there was my page from my blog. Cool!

Inspired
I've added to the blog...AGAIN. I added a background this time. I was inspired by my friend Fonda's blog as I went to her page this evening I noticed she had changed her background. I was all...I want a background to go with my new page. I saw a link on her page and so I clicked on it and behold it was a page of backgrounds. So there you go...I have a new background now. Thanks for the idea Fonda!
A Busy Day
My sweet grandson Colton spent the night last night. I had a busy day yesterday and picked him up in the evening when I was done so his mommy could get studying and test done.
Well, at 10:30 he was still all wound up and I was about to pass out so I thought...instead of putting him in his bed I'll just let him sleep with me. In the past it had work though it's been awhile....well...for an hour all he did was keep grabbing my face saying over and over again....Muggy, Muggy...ahhh Muggy and giving me kisses.
Ha!
See...Muggy is what he calls me instead of Gram...It is cute to hear him say it. Not sure if he'll change to Gram down the road or if I'll always be a "Muggy". One day maybe I'll explain the story on how we THINK Muggy came about.
Finally a little after 11:30 he fell asleep.
Colton loves out doors and as soon as we got out of the truck he was ALL over the place.
The above picture is him on the slide.
After we were done we went to Ruthie's Mexican Restaurant for lunch. Coton loves chips and salsa (dip as he would call it). Picture below at lunch.
After lunch we made a quick trip into Wal-mart before dropping Jenn off. Of course we had to go into the toy section cause he is so deprived of toys (Ha-Ha-Ha).
After dropping Jenn off Colton fell right to sleep on his journey home with one of his brand new toys in his lap.
I can't decide what to do tomorrow....
clean house or rest.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

2 Weeks And Counting
In 2 weeks I'll be off again on another adventure. This time it takes me to San Francisco. It's what we call "Grandma's Gone Wild...Part 2"
My girls and me...Fonda, Stacy and Beverly are spending 4 nights in the Bay area...last year we did New York (Bev couldn't make that one) and we decided then we would make it a point to go somewhere every year....just the girls. We joked about a lot of stuff as we prepared for NY and that's how the Grandma's Gone Wild came about...we (with the exception of Bev) were new Grandma's at the time...Bev has been one for awhile now.
So...by the end of the month I'll be able to share my new adventures with you. The thing I'm looking forward to the most besides getting away and having girl time is our visit to Alcatraz...we will actually do that our first day there. I can hardly wait!
Also when I return I will be able to update you on Jennifer and if her little bundle of joy she is carrying will be a boy or girl. She finds out the day after I leave for San Francisco so I will post that after I get back.
Okay...I think your all updated so I will let you go...thanks for stopping by...until next....
