So Much News!

Today is a very special day in my life. It’s the day I can finally announce to you all, that I am going to be a Grammie!

My daughter, Mandy and Matt wanted to wait until she was through her first trimester before we announced it. I have to tell you, I have been so excited I have hardly been able to keep it to myself!

Their baby (too soon to know what it is), will be born in mid June! I think we’re all walking around with the biggest smiles on our faces. Oh, how blessed our families are to have this little one on the way!!!

Congratulations Mandy & Matt!!!

My next piece of news is that today my cousin, Janet and I are going to Connecticut to celebrate my sister’s 40th Wedding Anniversary! They met when they were 13 years old at summer camp and back in those days, the only way to stay in touch was writing letters and occasionally a very expensive phone call. Yet, even though we lived on Cape Cod and Ron lived in Arlington Massachusetts, their love blossomed and they married right after High School. I was her maid of honor, all those years ago and Janet was a bridesmaid. I tried to find a picture taken back then, but couldn’t. Instead, here is a picture of Mel and Ron taken at their son, Mike’s wedding.
