GRANNY IS HERE!!!

WELCOME TO CAMP CALEB THIS WEEK! CALEB HAS HAD SUCH AN EXCITING WEEK! HIS GREAT GRANDMOTHER MOVED TO LONGVIEW, TEXAS.

GRANNY HELEN NEILL MOVED HERE FROM TRUSVILLE, ALABAMA. SHE HAS LIVED IN THE BIRMINGHAM AREA ALL OF HER LIFE. SHE WAS MARRIED TO PAWPAW, RALLS NEILL. WHOM WE ALL LOVED AND PASSED AWAY 2 YEARS AGO. CALEB IS NAMED FOR PAW PAW, CALEB RALLS.

GRANNY HAS LEFT BEHIND HER HOUSE/ APARTMENT AND GRANDSONS JACOB & NICHOLAS, SON DAVID & WIFE MARA & GRANDDAUGHTER SARAH. THEY HAVE TAKEN CARE OF PAW PAW & HER FOR THE PAST 10 YEARS OR SO. WE ARE ALL SO GREATFUL FOR THEIR WILLINGNESS TO GIVE OF THEIR TIME, LOVE & ROOM.

THIS BLOG IS DEDICATED TO NICHOLAS & JACOB. I WANTED TO SHOW THEM THE NICE PLACE GRANNY MOVED TO. THE CLAIRMONT IS AN EXCELLENT HOME. BESIDES THE FACT THAT AMY WORKS THERE, IT'S REALLY NICE.

HERE IS LOLO SITTING IN FRONT OF THE FRONT DOOR OF THE CLAIRMONT. YOU WALK STRAIGHT DOWN THE HALL AND TAKE A RIGHT & GRANNY'S DOOR IS 3 DOWN ON THE RIGHT.

HERE AUBREY, LAUREL & I (BECKY) ARE SITTING RIGHT OUTSIDE OF GRANNY'S BIG WINDOW. SHE HAS A FEW SUN CATCHERS HANGING IN THE WINDOW & WE HOPE TO DECORATE WITH FLOWERS ON THE OUTSIDE.
AMY & DAD ARE CHATTING OUTSIDE HER DOOR. TODAY WAS AN AWESOME DAY. WE ALL JUST HAPPENED TO MEET UP WITH GRANNY AFTER DIALISIS. I'M SURE YOU REMEMBER HOW TIRED SHE GETS ON THOSE DAYS SO WE DIDN'T STAY LONG. AUBREY IS RIGHT BEHIND DAD AT THE DOOR.
GRANNY HAS HER NIC NACS HANGING ALL OVER HER ROOM. CUTE PICTURES OF HER & PAW PAW. HERE AUBREY & LOLO ARE STANDING BESIDE HER CHAIR & RICKY IS SITTING IN THE WINDOW.
HERE MOM - VICKY IS SITTING IS THE CORNER WITH CALEB & AUBREY. I WOULD LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT THERE IS A PICTURE OF HER PRECIOUS BOYS, SHE MISSES LIKE CRAZY, HANGING ON THE WALL RIGHT NEXT TO HER & PAW PAW.
YOU MAY RECOGNIZE HER BIG NOTRE DAME PAINTING HANGING BEHIND HER BED. THE OTHER NIGHT CALEB, CHRIS & I WENT TO EAT DINNER WITH HER & SHE HAD DINNER IN BED. SHE ATE GREEN BEANS, A ROLL, PORK CHOP, MASH POTATOS, PEACHES, SWEET TEA, COFFEE, BUTTER MILK & STRAWBERRY MILK. SHE CLEANED MOST OF HER PLATE. SHE DEFINITELY LIKES THE FOOD HERE!
WE'VE ENJOYED SITTING IN HER COMPANY VISITING. SHE HAS LOTS OF STORIES ABOUT NICHOLAS & JACOB.
CALEB IS WAITING FOR HIS COUSIN DIEGO? TO BE BORN IN THE NEXT 40 DAYS. RICKY IS SUPER EXCITED.
CALEB HAS REALLY TAKEN TO GRANNY. HE LOVES TALKING & DROOLING ON HER. AT 5 1/2 MONTHS HE REALLY CAN'T TALK EXCEPT FOR CRYING FOR MA MA MA MA.
HE GETS TO LAUGHING & JUMPING & TRIES TO JUMP OUT OF GRANNY'S ARMS. WE ALL LAUGH OUT LOUD.
LOOK HOW EXCITED CALEB IS TO HAVE GRANNY HERE! THANKS FOR SHARING HER!
THIS IS THE ACTUAL DAY THAT GRANNY GOT INTO TOWN & GRANNY WAS HOLDING THE BOY. SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO THINK ABOUT THAT BUTTERBALL.
I'M GOING TO HAVE TO BLOG A LITTLE MORE ON GRANNY LATER THIS WEEK. BUT THIS GIVES YOU AN IDEA OF WHERE SHE'S LIVING NOW.
Y'ALL HAVE A GREAT WEEK.
