We Are Family

Our daughter and her family have made their way up north and are now occupied with starting their new life in Oregon. I have a few parting shots!



 



 

 
It was hard to see them go, but as they were leaving a beautiful angel named Lori arrived to support me with help sorting, packing, and our Saturday moving sale organization (including signs and pricing)! And most importantly, she supported me by willingly listened to my endless "gramma" stories!! We were very busy working but, we had lots of fun together at the same time. I'm so happy that I have had Lori here to bridge that loneliness gap and to keep me on track. Her support was amazing! We accomplished everything I had hoped for and more!


  I am sad to say that she flew away today! 
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I love you Lori!

I am now focusing on wrapping up our life here in California before we make our move north next week. I will try to check in here every few days!

A big thank you to my other three sisters and two brothers that would have helped me if they could have made it down/up here.

Peanut Butter Cup Rice Krispie Treats

Things have been very busy around here. Our daughter and her family are all moved out of their home and will be heading for Oregon very soon. I have spent a lot of time with the grandsons while their mom has been taking care of moving details and I have enjoyed every minute of it! We have been to Disneyland, Knott's Berry Farm, Lunch with Gramma Barb, Aquarium of the Pacific, swimming and last, but not least, the beach! Lots of fun memories have been made during their last week in California!

We attended a great summer party last weekend and I made Peanut Butter Cup Rice Krispie Treats that I saw on Brown Eyed Baker. No baking needed. There was a lot of great feedback and everyone loved them.


I didn't get a picture of them with the milk chocolate drizzle on them. My camera battery died so I didn't get any pictures of the party either!


The finished treats!


Another view!
