BIRTHDAYs are FUN! C'Mon Get HAPPY!

Four of our grand loves have birthdays beginning July 17th and ending Sept 1st.  So this year - we took them all with Nana (aka me), Popaw (aka Curtis) and Aunt Chloe to Lake Winnie.  They loved celebrating their birthdays this way! 

Julian Atticus Cartwright (son of our daughter, Lydia Brannen) turned 8 on July 17, 2016

Malachi (son of our daughter-in-law, Peaches Pollard) turned 7 on July 18, 2016

Catelynn Jeannell Crockett will turn 11 on August 18, 2016 and her baby brother, Collin Wayne Bradlee Crockett will turn 10 on September 1, 2016

It just so happens that Lake Winnie's carousel turned 100 years old in 2016

So we thought it was fitting to get the birthday boys & girl's picture

Since Collin & Catelynn haven't had their birthdays yet, we lined them up, including Aunt Chloe, by their current ages from right to left.........

7, 8, 9, 10 and 11

Mali, Juls, Collin, Cate and Chloe

I am so thankful we were able to take these kids to Lake Winnie.  I realize life is short.  I hope they will someday look at this blog and realize just how much I love them and enjoy being with them. 

Movin' on up!

Time really does fly when you're having fun!  

Hard to believe our baby girl is graduating from 5th grade!  

Middle School - Here She Comes!

Also hard to believe our granddaughter, Crystal Jade Mae Wilson 

(Terry & Amie's oldest daughter) graduated high school!

Congratulations Crystal!

Amazing how much time has passed since my last blog post.  I feel sure this picture might explain part of the lack of posting.  My wonderful Daddy, after battling chemo like a King, later had cancer again and gained his reward in heaven on 4/15/2014.  This is the date his beloved Pumzika Acres became our Crockett Camp.

This picture was taken on Dad's "mule" at Pumzika Acres - with his famous coffee cup.  :-)  PUMZIKA Daddy!  I love you!
