Paw-Paw having surgery

We are getting ready to leave to go to the hospital my Dad is having surgery this morning. He found out about three months ago he has prostate cancer. It has not spread and is very likely that this will be all that needs to be done to get rid of it. He is the third person in his family to get this kind of cancer his father had it in his late 50's and then his older brother had it in his early 60's. The doctor has already said that his other brother and any grandchildren will need to be tested and monitored. Please pray it's hard knowing he is the type that has to be on the move all the time and for next two weeks he we be having to take it easy. That's going to be hard.

Day 2 at the beach

After Daddy fixed us a great breakfast we headed to the beach. Makenna would not go near the water we walked on the beach and she had to be carried. Makenna would only play in the sand and ask us to go get her a bucket of water as needed. After lunch and a good nap we were off to the pool. She loved the lazy river and kiddie pool. There were ducks that would just come right up to the deck and Makenna loved calling them and feeding them she would clap and say come here ducks. Later that night we had ice cream and Makenna got her first cone of chocolate. I'm not sure that she will get chocolate again anytime soon since she stayed up to after midnight.

First day at Beach

We arrived at the beach around 4:30 on Saturday and unloaded the car. Then we decided to take Makenna to see the ocean. Let's just say we were a little more excited than she was. She went toward the water and when the wave splashed her she was done and wanted to go home. She loved the sand and was very happy to throw it at her brother. Then We went to the grocery store and then came back and rode the golf cart until she fell asleep.

Off to the Beach

On Saturday morning we will be leaving for a week at the beach. We have been talking about going for awhile and Makenna is very curious as to what we are doing she has become very clingy since I took the suitcase out of the closet. I pray that she will feel more comfortable when we get to the beach. Let's go have FUN!

Swiming with Erin and Ben

Ben and Erin came over to play at the pool and we had lot's of fun. Kayla loved playing with Makenna and Erin they had a really good time and lot's of laughing.Can't wait until they come to play again.

Happy Birthday Makenna

Makenna turned 2 today and we celebrated on Saturday with a party. She had a blast and was so excited when everyone arrived. She received lot's of great gifts and her favorite is a doll and stroller from Paw-Paw and Maw-Maw. She would not even open anymore gifts after she got her doll that she had been wanting. In the morning I was holding her and she held my face with her hands and said Moma Love ya. This was the first time she had said this without me saying it first. This morning she woke up and said happy day and has been saying it all day.

Kenna's new kitchen

We gave Makenna her kitchen for her birthday and she loves it! Everyday she says I love my kitchen and at night she tells it nite-nite. She has been cooking for us and calling everyone on the phone.
