We went to Anderson this weekend to celebrate Nana's 60th birthday and had lots of fun. We went to the Upper state fair in Greenville on Sunday before leaving. It was some good people watching...and Sallie enjoyed the rides and the petting zoo and I almost forgot about Pickles the clown! I felt like I needed a really good shower when I left. It was really nice to get away and enjoy time with Nana, Ward's brothers and their families. Anna got tubes in her ears on Thursday before we left and so far so good. We really hope that this will help with all her ear infections as she has had 5 in the course of her short little 12 month life. Sallie's tubes worked wonders so we are praying for the same thing for Anna. We got to stop through Easley on the way back to Columbia to visit with Grammy, Ward's grandmother who is in a nursing home with Alzheimers. Grammy looks great and seems to still know who we are. She smiled as soon as we walked in the door and really enjoyed watching Anna play with her wheelchair. Anna was named after Grammy, whose name is Ann, as well as my Mom who is Peggy Ann. Grammy has only met Anna two times so we try to get her by there as often as possible. Anna got her first pair of walking shoes while we were in Anderson. Nana likes to get the girls their first pair of shoes at the same store that she got Ward and his brother's first pair of shoes. They are precious and she has really been getting around well in them. She gets frustrated at times but I give it about another week before she is taking off. She wears a size 3 1/2. We've enjoyed a little break since Sunday as Sallie stayed in Anderson until tomorrow with Nana. The house has been really quiet and I really miss her. It has been a nice break but two nights is all I can do right now. I miss her laugh and her little sweet voice already! I am attaching many pictures from our weekend as well as from Anna trying to figure out this walking stuff. It was a great weekend had by all. Happy 60th Mary Carter aka"Nana".
