A Sunday Walk

Carolyn, Little John, Ben, the dog and I went for a walk this afternoon. It is cold outside, but I was tired of being in the house. Ben took along his trusty wheelchair. I have decided that there is nothing funner than watching Ben go for a walk in his wheelchair. He has so much fun doing spins and racing the dog. As we were walking down the road to the church, we passed a gentleman walking his dog while two other dogs tagged along. There were so cute, a little black schnauzer and a white rolly polly dog. As we passed them by, the dogs decided to join us on our walk. We decided that since we were already on our way to the church that we would walk the dogs home. The rolly polly dog belonged to Laurie Merrill and the black schnauzer belonged to the house just across the street from her. Since we were already such a long way from home, we just kept going and walked the whole loop around the block. It was a great walk!

Grandma Again!

Heather called tonight to say that she and Evan had made it safely to Ogden to where they are staying for the weekend with his aunt. They have tickets to go to a monster truck show for Valentine's Day. Carolyn is going down to meet with her tomorrow to start measuring her for her wedding dress. While we were talking, she just happened to mention that the reason she had called was to let me know that I was going to be a grandma again. She and Evan are expecting! The due date is August 17th. They are thinking that they need to move the wedding date up a bit. When I asked her if they had thought of a new date yet, she said that they were leaning toward June or July of this year or Spring of next year. I think it will be sooner. I am excited to start making baby blankets again.
