A Busy Couple Weeks



















The last two weeks for Josh and I have gone so fast. We started off in Tribune helping Grandma Kathy paint and tidy up for her guests! She had Wayne’s family coming to town and needed to finish the bathroom. Jill and Brett had done most of the remodel but just didn’t have time to paint.



Then on Saturday, The Flatlanders Festival was going on in Goodland. There is always a big car show, so Matt had his jeep downtown with all the Jeep guys! He tried to climb the cars, but he didn’t have enough flex in his jeep. Maybe next year! It's a good excuse for more jeep upgrades.






Then on Sunday we went to Denver to see Aunt Linda, Grandpa and Grandma McKenzie and Great Grandma Nina! We also had a new glider rocker to pick up from Grandma Kathy and Wayne for Josh.

On Monday we talked to Grandma Younger and she was so blue. We decided to pack up and go to Salina and surprise her! Grandma had had knee surgery and needed a little help while Grandpa was at work. Josh loved to hang out all day on Grandma’s lap and he loved when Grandpa would sing to him. We had a great time. The look on her face was nothing I could put into words when she and Grandpa got to see him for the first time! Grandma and I had a good time and it was nice to help her out for the week. I didn’t like to make her do the therapy but it was needed but, we did have fun doing her hair and makeup. She said the gals at therapy said she looked so nice with her hair and makeup done. I think it made her feel really good! Jason and a couple of the kids also came over to see us!!

You did have a busy week! I'm glad Josh and you were able to go see Grandma Younger. I'm sure they all enjoyed seeing him. My favorite picture is him sitting in the walker! He looks like a little man.

P.S. the bathroom looks great Wayne and Kathy!

How can he look so different in just a week??? I know, I know, babies grow, but seriously he looks so different. Glad you guys had a good trip.

Mom and Wayne's bathroom looks so good! Great Job!! I'm soooo glad you went to see Grandma Monie. I'm sure that cheered her up. I wish we lived closer so we could help take care of her, too. Kiss that little man for me.
