Nashville visit and Erin's Shower

Maggie anxiously awaiting our arrival.

Grace and Anthony toured

the capitol with Molly and Rob

Ed, Andrea and I got in around

4pm and John fixed stuffed

burgers on the grill.

Grace is ready for the shower.  Too cute.

Patty's friend Haley hosted this

shower at her lovely home in Franklin.

91 diapers made up this great centerpiece.

Erin with her mother and

cousin's daughter.

Grace helped Erin keep track of

gifts and Andrea passed them to her.

It was an amazing day and

she got so many wonderful gifts.

We're so blessed.

On the road again and ham sandwiches.

I packed up some sandwiches and we

headed home this afternoon.  Andrea and

Ed went to Hollywood Studios this morning;

no pictures.

We stopped in Tifton, Georgia before

heading on to Nashville on Friday, March 31st.

Epcot

We started the day at the Fast Track and

then Mission Space and Soaring.

Beautiful topiary outside the butterfly house.

 Couldn't resist this either.

 Ran into Aiden again...go figure!

Finished up this hot day after a great

lunch in China and a ride on Spaceship Earth

Andrea Here! Let the fun begin.

I had to meet her at the gate as

an unaccompanied minor.

First stop, Parksdale for Strawberry Shortcake

My friend Linda says, have dessert first so

you have room for it!  That's a good grandma. Andrea

liked that idea but left room for Skyline.

We hung out at home and she

got to drive Mike's golf cart.

Dinner at Cape May in the Beach Club

We had dinner this evening at this great

seafood buffet.  Had to walk off dinner at

Epcot.

Lunch with cousins

With my first cousin Roger, his daughter

Becky and her daughter Tiffany at

Cherry Pockets Fish Camp.

Had to approve the new boyfriend....think

he's a keeper.

Sal and Jean Saputo

Each year we go up to visit with a great

couple from Michigan, Sal and Jean Saputo.

Their daughter, Jeanna, met us for lunch.

We worked with them at Genitti's in Northville.

Kellson's First Birthday

Our great-great nephew Kellson with

his beautiful mother, Angelina.

We were so tickled to be there to

celebrate with all of them.

and came down from Ohio to spend

the weekend.

My sister is blessed with 9 grandkids and 10 great grandkids

Garden Rocks Concert

We saw the Pointer Sisters this year

Only one original.  The other two were a

daughter and niece.  We did "jump".

My personal favorite, Tinkerbell outside of

England.

Tree Trimming

Trimming trees in Florida with our

neighbor Nick.  Some of

these palms get a little too tall.

Meeting Spartans on the Boardwalk

Just out for an evening stroll and

ran into former Spartan football

players, Kellen Davis and Eric Andino.

Two tight ends and a center. Sure make

them a lot bigger today!

Downtown Disney has two new

areas and a new name; "Disney Springs"

We enjoyed a stroll through the

Ed was rewarded for all that walking with a

Strawberry Crepe at Aristocrepes.
