Future Grandma

Okay, I have been sitting here readying all the posts around and since mom's surgery. I feel so guilty, I feel like as one of the older siblings, and one of the earliest computer geeks in the family, it shouldn't have taken me so long to catch the spirit of this whole blog thing. (it seems maybe computer geek #1 hasn't caught it either)
By the way, this isn't a reference to the biggest computer geek, (you are all big geeks!) simply the oldest in terms of geekhood.
All of your posts are beautiful. The photos and stories are awesome! I honestly think this is the first time I have been kind of jealous of all of you being so physically close to each other in Utah. It seems nice.
So, you all know by now I am going to be a grandma!! Heck with the fact that Natasha and Jono will be parents, I'M GOING TO BE A GRANDMA!!!! I cried like a baby when she told me. I am so excited. When I wasn't allowed to tell anyone yet, I called Natasha back and said, "I just want to tell my mom". (In my most whiny begging voice) She gave me permission, thanks Nat! I bawled again. What a fun thing to share with my mom and to talk about how much she loves being a grandma.
I can't wait!!
And if you think I am excited, you should hear Jacey and Braelyn's enthusiasm about being aunts. Wow, amazing to watch my kids all getting so grown up. I will post some pictures of Jacey's graduation. I should have a month ago, but of course I haven't logged in here for awhile. Also we have been gone nearly every weekend with Braelyn who is playing on a traveling all-star fastpitch team. I will post a few of those. Three weekends ago she played in Twin Falls and Natasha, Jono, Josh and Whitney all came down to watch as well. It was soooo fun having them all there and supporting their baby sister. It really meant a lot to her. (I did feel sorry for the umpires when they made a call that was not in Braelyn's favor!) I am assistant coaching the team, so I was in the dugout, but we certainly had a lot of loud voices coming from the bleachers.

Anyway, photos to follow in a little while. I love you all so much!! I am sorry that mom had to have surgery for us to all get together, but it was such a neat weekend!
