I am seeing if this works

ok

I am trying to get this to work

Here is to Travis- One dedicated Fan

If any of you don't know this, Travis LOVES the STEELERS. I can remember the first time we met Travis the subject of football came up, and he expressed his love for the Steelers. I have been able to purchase a knockoff Steelers blanket for him one Christmas. Then lucky Debi and Travis moved to Pittsburgh. They have only been able to attend one or two times, because of the lack of being able to get tickets, the city loves their team, or price. They still have little cheerleading outfits for their girls, and he still loves his team.
One other thing you might not know about our son in law, he is very soft hearted. He is still for the underdog, and so I think this might of been hard on him a little. But, he is still loyal to his team- Pittsburgh. So, here is to you Travis, CONGRATULATIONS.

Grandkids are the best

Wow, it is the best to be a Grandma. I wish all my little kids were around, so I could spoil them all the time. I don't get to see them half as much as I wish I could. Here are some latest visits with the grandkids. I hope to get more pictures of our other ones when we visit them in the next few months.
Here are all my little ones that I don't get to see very often. They all came home in July, and oh what a wonderful time we had. Such a fun time together.

Michael and Grandpa spend each day together. There latest addition is a "Wii" and they love it. Here they are at the Gingerbread houses. They sure had fun

Yes, Katelyn is all about being a 7th grade cheerleader. She is also part of a private team that her coach has, and she loves this team as well. Tumbling, flying, cheering are all part of who are darling Katelyn is now days.
Ok, this is little Ella's new exciting toy. She loves to hang out under this little jungle gym, and even falls asleep listening to the "rain forest," and watching all the things move around. So cute.

Logan decided to put on his elf hat and his Elephants Christmas jacket to open his parents. It was way funny. He is the cutest little boy, but he wasn't very smily in this pictures.
