A year old!

On October 2nd, 2010 my granddaughter turned a year old. Ditto and I went to Calfornia so that I could attend her birthday party. It's been a year since I've actually held her and it was so wonderful to hold her, play with her and just be there for the special occasion. Ditto was able to meet the rest of my family (other than my baby sister, my brother and his wife and their 3 kids)Mom cooked us dinner on Saturday night, which was delicious! Ditto and my stepfather seemed to hit it off real well - He got to meet Morgan, my daughter in law, Nova, my sister (who's clean and sober now something like 3 months I think and dating some guy that gave me the creeps. She also has gained quite a bit of weight, she wears the same size pants as me, size 12, whereas she use to wear a size 2-4, yeah, a lot of weight, though she is only heavy from the waist down which is odd)he also got to meet my stepbrother, exhusband, exhusbands 2nd wife and most all of my DIL's family too. We had a great time. I also found my 400$ bracelet that I had lost in my little sisters room 3 or so years ago! So excited! I looked for it everytime I was there and never found it. I suspect it was hiding real well under the bed, since there's a new bed in there - so I'm thinking it was found when moving the bed out and placed on the windowsill by my baby sister.

My Nova girl flirted constantly with Ditto, it was so freaking cute! Below are some photo's I took of her (one or two that Ditto took as well) I'm still waiting for the pictures of her opening presents and eating cake - we had to leave a bit early from the party on Sunday, in order to get back to Vegas at a decent time, so I missed those parts, but I am so happy that I got to spend an hour or so with her before anyone else showed up, though my son was running around getting last minute items forgotten and decorating the rec room as fast as he could before guests arrived, so I didn't really get to spend much time with him - or my DIL - no big deal though, I kept watch of Nova girl and played with her.. lots of fun! Enjoy the pictures!

Nova, licking her frosting fingers!
Walking with Nana! Yeah, that's right, I'm the birthday girl!
Serious look at Ditto!
You can't get me Nana!
More photo's to come. For some reason, Blogger won't let me upload anymore on this post.
