four generations and update on giveaway

*** I'm going to go ahead and tell you what the answer is and announce a winner of the gift card tomorrow FRIDAY at noontime. I can't wait any longer. Your guesses have been fun to read.

My MIL was in town for a couple of weeks. While she was here she stayed with us a little bit. One evening we had BIL and SIL and nephew and his wife, the new baby and the twins over. The twins are growing up and their looks are changing so fast. New baby looks just like them. Twins Mom said the new baby and the twins' baby pictures do look very much alike.

This is the new baby who is 3 and half weeks old in this picture. My MIL is holding him. That's his grandmother beside her and his mother (who looks so good to have just had a baby.) Four generations there! My Brother-in-law in the blue shirt and the twins and their dad in the red shirt over by the pool. Twins were interested in the pool!

Guess what? Win a Starbucks gift card

Happy Birthday to Magnolia Sun today! I wished her happy birthday yesterday, and she reminded me that it was today! Every year I have a hard time remembering if her birthday is the 18th or 19th. It's one of those brain problems.

I want to giveaway a Starbucks gift card. So I have a little contest about something going on right now. If more than one person guesses correctly, I will put those names in a drawing. If no one guesses correctly, then everyone's name will go in the drawing. If you don't like coffee, go ahead and guess because you can always give the gift card to someone who does! Anwer to this will be coming this weekend.

Here's some clues.

1. Something I've wanted to do for a long time and husband just decided he really wanted to do it, too.
2. My family is okay with it.
3. It's something that is not done too often. I've tried to research it on the internet and didn't find much to go by.
4. Most people think you are crazy to do this. Mostly because it's cost prohibitive.
5. You do not have to leave town to do this.
6. I heard that older people do it more than younger.
7. I ask the husband every day if he's changed his mind. He says, Not at all. He's happy about it.

I hope you have fun guessing this. I hope the clues are not to hard or not too easy!

I'll post the answer and winner on Sunday!

Meet Me on Monday



1. Caesar Salad or Garden Salad?

I'm not much of a salad eater, but I do like Caesar better than garden.

2. Will you be watching the Royal Wedding on April 29th?
You bet I'll be watching. I watched Diana's wedding and can't wait to see Kate's wedding.

3. Last thing you spent lots of money on?
We just put a deposit down on something today that would qualify for this category.

4. Window seat or aisle seat?
I don't ride on planes now, but I used to prefer a window seat. Then I realized that the aisle seat was better.

5. Do you know your blood type?
O negative.
