George and I are 'hitting the road' again. This time we are going to Texas to see my middle son and his adorable family.. My two Texas granddaughters both play softball---and do it well... I have yet to get to see them play, so we hope to see some games this weekend . We're headed down there today and will be back home on Tuesday night, the 21st. We won't be near the computer, so I won't post any blogs or leave comments until we get back home.
However, my son called today saying that the Houston area is supposed to get RAIN this weekend. Just our luck!!!!!! SO--we may or may not get to see them play softball. Oh Well!!!! We're going anyhow---and will enjoy just getting to see them.
My granddaughters are growing up so fast. The older one is 15 and the younger one is 12... Mercy Me... This Grammy will be going to a high school graduation before too many years! The girls are pictured above. This picture was taken at Christmas. Aren't they just beautiful???? Of course, Grandmothers are prejudiced. (If you recently read my post about taking the grandgirls to Stone Door, well--these are the same two girls... Gee--how they've grown up in 3 yrs.) Below are a couple more pictures.
This is the older grand---and her high school softball team. In the top picture, she is in the middle on the first row--- you know---the pretty one!! Be sure and enlarge this picture!
This is the younger grand, after a tournament last summer. Isn't she a cutie???? I can't wait to see the entire family.
I hope all of you have a wonderful week/weekend. I'll miss you ---and will catch up with your blogs when we get home.
Love and Bunches of Hugs,

Hugs to you both♥
Hope you all have a safe and joyful trip Betsy, and hope the rain holds off!
Hi Betsy, Have a wonderful trip. Big hug.

Oh I hope the rains hold off. Grandchildren love to show off for their grandparents. Parents see them all the time but grandparents---that is special.
Obviously good genes in your family, real cuties.
Enjoy your weekend and take pictures.
I do hope your trip is safe and you get lots of HUGS!
Have a great trip, and I hope you see some games. My GDD's first high school varsity softball game for me will be the 29th, the earlier games are "away" at other towns ... far away! Safe travels and hugs to the girls!
Be safe and have a great time!
You do have beautiful granddaughters.Enjoy your time with them and go ahead,spoil them as much as possible.Isn't that what Grandmas are supposed to do?
Blessings,Ruth
It's wonderful when kids are involved in sports. They learn so much about working as a team and playing fair.
Have a wonderful time in Texas, rain or shine.
Your granddaughters are lovely girls, Betsy. I know you will have a wonderful time down in Texas. Safe travels to you and George!

Betsy: Just being near the granchildren will be great. There are some gret places for photography in the Houston area.

Betsy - I see you beaming over there. Those two girls are so pretty. There is nothing else in the world so special as the grandchildren. I know you will have a fabulous time even if it is raining. Looking forward to a full report next week.
Sounds like a fun visit. Don't worry about the weather ... you can't change it anyhow even if you do. Plus, so many good memories I have are during cloudy and rainy days.
From this post here, I can tell that you will have a great time in Houston. I sure hope so :). Lovely granddaughters and so talented! Have a nice weekend, Betsy. Hugs from Indonesia.
Beautiful girls! I'm sure you will all have a wonderful time. Enjoy!
I know you will be having a great time. I possibly will have a new grandbaby by the time you are back home.
