    been hanging around since July figured I need an account.

    thank you for the warm welcome. Yes having Grandma and Popa right next door is a huge blessing. our youngest doesn't remember ever not having the the ability to go to Grandma's in the winter in your underwear! Just two doors and your in Grandma's Kitchen! Our kiddos are VERY lucky!
