Grammy's Boy

Oh where does the time go.  It seems like only yesterday that my daughter came and told me that she was adopting her foster child.  He was this cute little three-year-old that we fell in love with  immediately.  That little boy had been through so much when he first came but he always seemed to have a smile on his face.  Not only did his heartbreak when his mother died, but my heart ached double for the loss of my daughter and the loss of his mother.  This grandson is growing into a wonderful young man.


      I was just on Facebook and could not believe some pictures of my grandson wrestling, he is growing up so fast and he just loves playing sports(his mother would be proud).  Here is one of his wrestling pictures that somebody took:


here is Cody getting ready to start his match
I cannot believe how tall he is look at the muscles. 
No wonder all the girls are chasing him 

and here is Cody pinning down his opponent. 
I do not think his opponent had a chance
because when he puts his mind to something, there is no stopping him
and here he is winning the match

We are so lucky and proud to have him  in our lives.  He is one of the sweetest boys I know maybe I am just prejudice because I am his Grammy and like to spoil him.  But that is okay because that is what Grammies are supposed to do.

Oh no not again!

Hello every body, just wanted to keep you posted that the white stuff is still coming down in Pennsylvania it is 11:00 AM and my husband is out cleaning the driveway....  they are predicting 2 to 3 more inches....  He was hoping he would not have to snow blow ,but I guess it was wishful thinking.


                   The poor guy is out there now getting ready for the next snowfall, which is falling.  
 
here is John starting up the driveway which you can see
it has a slight rise to it.... Like I always say if I can get out of the driveway.  I can get anywhere .
and here he is starting back down the driveway

there was more snow out there than I really anticipated.  And now they are predicting at least 2 to 3 inches more OH NO !!!!   Even the poor dogs don't know where to go to .  We did not get time to shovel out their little fenced in area but they are making the best of it.

These are my sisters dogs the the sister that is staying with us for a while
they are really good dogs.  We put up a temporary fence because she was afraid they would see a squirrel or rabbit and chase after it ...  They come from the big city of  Boyertown and do not see many wild creatures, so they are not used to them.

This is Cole sitting waiting for me to let him in.  He is probably thinking, boy, this lady is nuts standing out here taking pictures in the cold
and here is Caramel.  She is sitting very patiently for me to let her in.

And Josie looks like she is thinking.  This lady is crazy making us sit out here and pose for pictures.
And here are all three of them waiting for me to let them into the dining room .

These dogs are very well trained.  Must be because I did not teach them.  I never have luck training dogs.  They trained me!

Well I have to go now.  Got some laundry to do and so forth .  Hope you enjoy my little update.  Hope to be  blogging sooner and keep you posted on my extraordinary life.
