My Dear Family and Friends - I have been patiently waiting for my wonderful daughter-in-law to post this on their blog first - but I just can't wait any longer! I have told most of Cass County and now am starting on strangers including sales clerks and cash wash attendants. I'm pretty sure everyone thinks I'm crazy. So it's time to scream it on my blog. We are going to be grandparents!!! Whoo Hoooo! We were so excited to learn a couple Saturdays ago that Andrew and Meagan are expecting a baby in early February. They told us by giving us a book named "A New Barker In The House", and the tears started flowing instantly! We were having Billie and Mark's anniversary party at the lake house so they told us in the morning and then told everyone else later on that afternoon. There was such excitement on the deck when they gave the same book to the new great-grandparents to be! We are all so thrilled. Tears were flowing then too. It's been since Connor that we have had a baby in this family so do you think he or she might be a bit loved (spoiled in a good way!!)?? I pretty sure of it. Can't wait to watch Meagan grow and glow, and to see what a beautiful baby they will have. The anticipation is the best part!!
We had a beautiful day for the 30th anniversary party and it was so nice to have the house and yard full of people. The spread of food on the table was amazing and the company was the best. Congrats again to the wonderful couple on 30 years!! It was great to have Aunt Jo, Les and Chris at Munson to help them celebrate too!! A good time was had by all I believe.
This past weekend we had a few good hours of sunshine on Sat and got to spend some time on the pontoon finally! Then the awful clouds moved in and we were at our house in case the basement was needed. It was kinda scary for awhile! We did manage to get the pork chops done in spite of the weather!! This Friday Jenn, Greg and I, Tim, Julie and Kristin Keckler are going to Omaha NE to see two games of the college world series. Mike has connections thru work and gets tickets almost every year if he wants them. Mike and Dave (Kristin's fiance) can't go so the rest of us are. Tim was given the tickets on Father's Day as a surprise and I guess he is really excited! He has always wanted to go so it should be fun. The weather sounds great and baseball is my second favorite sport (Bison FB first of course!) so what could be better than baseball, sun, cold beer, and good friends. Looking forward to it. Will post some pics when we get back.
Have a great weekend everyone - Love from Grandma Becky :) HEE HEE Love the sound of that!!!
Well Grandma Barker that sounds like wonderful news! You'll have to find one of those brag books to carry with you at all times. Give the new Baby Barker our best!
