The Best Times of Our Lives

That song was going through my mind as I woke up to giggles and whispers this morning. Eight of my 10 grandkids spent the day yesterday and the night with me.  Mr. SS took off for Long Beach again and I had all 10 for most of the day, then the babies went off to bed at home.
This morning we watched a movie while some had french toast, some cereal and some both.
There was lots of laughter going around too.





When one of my DIL's arrived to pick up her two, she asked how it went. I said it was one of the best days of my life. When she asked why, all I could say was that is that they are such great kids and so accepting of the big change in our life which in turn changed theirs.
We are so blessed.

Our Three Sons


Mama's Angels


I'm always showing pictures of our grandkids, so thought I would share some of the great parents who
are raising those 10 little angels.


God is Good!
Life is Good!

Home for Christmas


It's been over a month since I have posted. We are mostly unpacked and settling into our new home.
I've managed to put up a small tree and decorated a corner of the kitchen island.
Presents are all wrapped, baking is done and our family will all be together at my son's house in Tehachapi tomorrow night.
Mr. SS asked me if I was feeling couped up in this little space. Nope, I said. I'm  surrounded by all the things I love. My grandkids are playing outside, I have a kitchen to cook in, a place to sit and read my favorite book, my sewing machine in the next room, a bed to fall in at night and best of all you, my husband to love me.
God has blessed me with all that I need.
I am also so blessed with great friends who have encouraged and supported me through this change in my life.  That includes all of you that I have met and consider friends through your blogs too.
May God bless you all with the best Christmas ever.
I am so looking forward to catching up with all of you and taking you along on my new adventure.

Merry Christmas as we celebrate the birth of  baby Jesus, our Lord.

God is Good!
Life is Good!
