Bragging Rites

As the proud grandma of 13 wonderful grandchildren..I need to take a minute and share some of the things some of my grandchildren have been involved in.
Kelly my second oldest grandson received his Eagle Scout Award last Sunday, at a special Court of Honor. He is a sophomore at Pinnacle High School and very involved in running.. cross country and regular track as well as marathons.

Taylor received honors with an essay she submitted in a Multi Regional essay contest.(all 50 states) She took 4th in the competition with her writing. She is a 7th grader and loves softball as well as writing..


Maddy was just honored by being chosen All-State Orchestra. We attended the festival of performance last night and it was wonderful. Maddy was chosen as 2nd chair in the elementary age All State Orchestra. She is in 6th grade and loves music of all kinds and is an avid reader.


Alli received her second infusion last week and it was very successful. They are starting to wean her off of the steroids she has been on for so long; so that in 2 months she will be completely off of them. She has 4 more infusions ( once a month she has one, it takes 8 hours), but all is looking good so far.

Morgan has been going to water PT and is progressing great. She is involved with a pain therapist also and making great strides. She was even walking yesterday without her crutches..great news. She is on track to graduate this May and looking forward to going to Prom.
Just a few notes on these fantastic grandkids I have..
