The two Hatties and Princess traveler

Here is another wonderful picture from Saturday's celebration. I wasn't sure I was going to be able to get it from my phone to this blog. Jill's family and Jimmy's family brought sweet, thoughtful gifts for Grandma. Jenny, who was very rushed as she was trying to get her family ready to fly to Colorado early the next morning, was lamenting the fact that she had not been as generous and thoughtful. Stephen pointed to Baby Hattie in Grandma Hattie's lap and said, "But you brought Hattie - none of us can ever top that." It is true, of course, that no gift can compare to the gift of a namesake for Hattie Belote Johnson. She is so proud, even though she tries to downplay it. "All those pretty names in the world and they go and name that baby Hattie" - or words to that effect!



Jenny posted this picture of Lucy on facebook. The caption, "She is SO excited! She doesn't even care we're leaving 70 degree temperatures for single digits." After several comments by facebook friends, including me, Peaches added: "Oh, it was one of her cutest..., walking with a purpose. Escalators, moving sidewalks, security shoe removal - she conquered them all" Not sure how big a fan of skiing Lucy is going to turn out to be though. Jenny reported tonight that her favorite thing so far was reading a book to her stuffed animal and her least favorite: "Probably skiing"!
