This past weekend, we drove down to Houston to celebrate my Granny's 90th Birthday! She is my Great Grandmother, which means that she is also a Great Great Grandmother to Mason & Taylor. Family from all over Texas drove in to celebrate her special day. I love that we live in Texas now and were able to be a part of her day. Had we been in California, I'm not sure we would have made it. Granny is an amazingly talented lady. God gave her the gift of art. She can paint gorgeous paintings with oils and acrylics. From a very young age, I remember seeing her paintings and wishing I could paint like that. I'm pretty sure she is the reason I started painting at a very young age. I wish I would have continued, but I still have some of my very first paintings. When I was younger, Granny taught my sister and I how to make homemade Chicken & Dumplings. I'm not a fan of the meal, but I could eat hers any time. It meant a lot to me that she took the time to show my sister and I how to make it. She also loves to play games, her favorite being Marbles. Granddaddy Covey, her husband made several Marble boards during his day and my Dad has made a couple as well. It's a family favorite to play Marbles. If you play with Granny, you will instantly know she is very competitive and can take you down. We are blessed to have her in our lives and treasure the moments we have with her. Love you Granny!
