When this song popped on the radio yesterday, I KNEW it reminded me of Nanna.  Nanna is my husband’s grandmother, Doris.  She recently passed away peacefully in her sleep & is now walking the streets of gold.  She will be sorely missed, but she really did live a good life.  As Josh’s cousin Jeff said at her memorial luncheon, Nanna barely had more than $5 in her pocked at any given time – but that $5 was yours, no questions asked.  She loved to love, to talk, to cook, and to fill bellies.  She made too much food, always.  She talked too much.  She was always right.  She had a good life.  Ask any of her 5 children, 12 grandchildren, or 13 great-grandchildren.  We love you Nanna.

Hello Noelle!  This sweet darling is Noelle.  She attends the girls bible study I co-lead and today she is going to a wedding.  She mentioned not knowing what to do with her hair last week and I told her I’d be happy to straighten it for her.  Today, that is what I did!  I took my sister’s Chi straightener, all the products I own, and spent over an hour chatting with Noelle & straightening her gorgeous red curly hair!  And this dress…can you believe that she MADE it with her grandmother!?!?!?  There is none other like it!  It’s amazingly fabulous.  My photo doesn’t do it justice.  There are so many details you can’t see at this distance, but I think she did a wonderful job!  Have a great time at the wedding Noelle!  Dance a little for me!
