These photos are from a party we had celebrating my great niece Amber's birthday and my dad's birthday. It was a fun time and I love being able to see all of them when I'm in Florida. I love them all so much.
The is my great niece Amber, Melissa's daughter, with her better half Joe and their son Jordan. They are fabulous parents to this precious adorable little boy.
Here is my niece Melissa, proud grandmother to Jordan who is now is almost 15 months old. We are having a great time being grandmother's at the same time.
Here's Ashlynn with Jordan.
My dad with baby Jordan.
My niece Michele in the center with her daughter Ashlynn on the left and her son Garrett on the right. Her daughter Amanda, the one who recently graduated college is now working her full time job at John Deere in Georgia. She had other plans for the weekend and I missed seeing her very much.
I had a wonderful time visiting my dad. We did a lot of chasing around everyday while I was there. Somehow, by the grace of God, I managed to do it but I was exhausted each day. What I did do was stay on my steroids following the lung infection I had before I left and that helped me through it.
We watched about 15 movies while I was with him. He enjoyed that so much. I also took him to Walmart and the Dollar Store since those are places he doesn't get to go too very often. Of course we did other shopping too and we went to the casino twice.
We were at 4 different banks 11 times getting all of his stuff in order with his trust. Luckily we found a few mistakes and were able to get that sorted out. I did have the help of my sister too. Sadly she is the one living in Florida so the responsibilities of my dad falls into her lap.
Then the day I was leaving he had a doctors appointment for a spot of cancer on his check. We were there for 2 1/2 hours. He did pretty well and I hear that it is looking great. My brother in law Bob spent the night with him because they advised he have someone with him.
Me and my dad. We are best friends!

What precious pictures, Debby... especially the one of you and your Dad. XOXO Steroids... they're magical, aren't they? I'm so glad you found a way to get through your comings and goings. Love, Andrea
Glad you enjoyed your time. That’s a nice picture with your Dad.
All I can say is that you will never ever be sorry for this time you spend with him - as hard as it is and as far as it is from you.
Sounds like you did a not of nice things together.

How great that you got to spend time with so much of your family!
Good pictures of the family, I like the one of you and your dad. My dad had cancer to come up on his face as well.
It sounds like you had a wonderful visit with your dad. I'm flying to San Diego in two weeks to see my dad again, I can't wait! He's 94!
Hi Debby,
I am so happy you had a good trip. Your dad does look happy. Hope all is well with him today.
Love, Carla
