Ramblin' Grammy

click to get Orkut Myspace have a good day Comments & Graphics
We have been busy around the ol' Andrews Homeplace. The basement has been scrubbed and is now minus lots of junk...where does it all come from? I got my new washer and dryer in and have actually enjoyed laundrocizing! But, I know at some point the newness will wear off and it will be my least favorite chore once again..sigh.
We, had a heartbreaking time at the ballfield last night...sigh. Ian's team was tied for 1st place and lost by one run! I know that 2nd place is good, but to see the disappointment on by first grandboys face, made this ol' grammy want to cry.
Today is going to be a day of leisure...gonna wash this grey right outta my hair. Give myself a mani/pedi, finish reading my book and maybe even watch an old movie. Don't worry, I read my Bible outside at the Bisto Table this morning. It was too cool on the back porch swing, so Tomer moved the table and chairs into the sunshine.
Ah, it felt mahvelous!
Seems, all I do is ramble anymore...but my life is full! My grandbabies are happy active children and we are so blessed by everything they do. God, has given us the privilege of having a family. When Dr.'s said it was impossible and that we should consider adopting...God had a plan for us. He knew even before I was born that I would be a Mama and Grammy. Taste and see that the Lord is good...He is...all the time!

This Blog...Temporarily Interrupted

Our Miss Em's team the Angels ended the season undefeated! Here, our little gals are receiving their pins, after winning the first round of the All Star games yesterday.

Ian pitching in yesterdays heat...The A's are tied for first. This Wednesday night they will play the tie breaker...Go A's!


Maddy, spent the night with this ol' Grammy last night. She, Ian and I shared lots of time under Umbrella's at Em's game today. There was absolutely no shade and Mr. Sun was intense. Maddy's, team the Tigers took 1st place and she is on to the All Star games next week!


Beware...this face may not be as innocent as it seems. LOL! That's our Xavier, hamming it up for the camera and enjoying his Sissy's game. Well, he spends most of the game with his friends...running, playing and drinking lots of beverage


The Angels winning streak ended today, that means the season is over for our gals.
Great job Angels...you made us proud.

Blessed Are Daddy's Children

Mama and Daddy the day after they married...April 1950.
I always, find myself a little sad on these special days. My sweet Daddy died suddenly. And these days, I am reminded that I simply wasn't ready to let him go.
There was 8 of us Musser children and Daddy was so proud of each and every one of us. I will miss him always.

He quoted the the bold part of this Scripture often.
Psalm 127:4-5 (New International Version)
4 Like arrows in the hands of a warrior
are sons born in one's youth. (Daddy said children, not sons)
5 Blessed is the man
whose quiver is full of them.
They will not be put to shame
when they contend with their enemies in the gate.

Happy Fathers day!

Quiet....

It is unusually quiet here this morning...I am alone. Just me, myself and I. No television, just my handy dandy notebook and a nice freshly ground cup of coffee...Mmmm.
The beginning of Summer vacation is but a few days away...Tomer and Kell will be on vacation and I will only have Em and Xavie, 3 days during the week. Tomer and I, have our list of to-do's ready and I am so excited to be getting some things done around here. First, on my list is painting the living room and play room...sigh. I still, haven't made a final decision on paint colors though because I have been curtain shopping and so far...nothing thrills me. Oh, well nothing life shattering.
Next...the BASEMENT! That place is going to be purged of a lot of junk. I have decorations for every season and holiday. What hasn't been used in a while is out of here! Then...after removing all of the cobwebs, I will scrub every nook and cranny! Oh, and the bathroom down there needs a total makeover! Cause the toilet started leaking and since it was rarely used, the tiles need to be replaced. Lots to do, lots of plans but we've got all Summer to enjoy the gardens and just hanging around the house. God is so good!
Then, in August our campsites are reserved in East Tawas, our favorite spot on Lake Huron. Our girls and families, Tomer and I are counting down the days. Sandy beaches, a gorgeous Lighthouse and lots of great shops to browse in.
Well, I'd best hush and make my dessert for our Church Leadership Picnic at Elizabeth Park tonight...have a wonderful day!

Daddy's Girl

84 years ago today...my Daddy was born in this house that he called the "Old Homeplace." But, today Daddy is in a new Home Place, with his precious Jesus.
Oh, how I miss him.


I, was blessed to be raised on the ways and gentle kindness, of this small town Southern man. Thank you Lord...for Daddy.
