August 8th, 2008

Well, here we are at the end of another Colorado evening. DH took our 11 year old son and I to Manitou Springs and we walked through all the shops that were open. I bought some of the little clay pots that hang on strings, and a Sioux made basket. That one will be special to me since I have Sioux Indian in me somewhere down the way...I held a picture of Sitting Bull (famous Sioux chief) up for my husband to see and we both thought that my Mom could have passed as his daughter. My Momma had the definite Sioux nose.


Which now, her great grand daughter has.... LOL!


Came back here to dd house to see that sil friends are still here from Vegas, and they are playing a game. Some sort of a computer game all the kids enjoy, but dd doesn't understand, nor does she want to, so we visited out on the balcony and had a grand time with our beautiful grandson!


The friends and sil made plans to go to Denver tomorrow to the aquarium, dd doesn't want to go, but says that she will if it means spending time with her husband before he goes back..... dh and I are not going. DD wanted to spend the day with her Dad for his 50th birthday on the 12th, which we will not be here, but , other plans were made.....


That's ok. Being a Mom, I feel that this time should be more spent on taking care of dd and baby... not so much friends and time away doing this or that... but health and safety of MY daughter and grandchildren. But who am I to complain? I'll just pray and continue on with whatever direction my daughter's life takes.

  1. Oh the joy of in-laws, huh? Lol...


    Thanks for stopping by and your sweet comment. Yes, things are kind of rough right now, but that's just part of this life isn't it? I took dd out to our local Goodwill today and was able to find her some really nice church clothes and some for ds as well. So, I'm grateful for that - never could have gotten what we did full price. But I did tell her this was our last hurrah for awhile until there is more work!


    Congrats on the baby!

    Hugs to you~~

  2. I enjoyed reading your blog - I hope you can live in the country, I'd love to too, but probably won't be for a while.
