Granddaugters Making a Difference

I wanted to tell you about a school club that my two Indiana granddaughters are part of.
The club reaches out and seeks to make a difference in the lives of the disabled and disadvantaged in their community.  Several times a year they do special activities at the Logan Center in South Bend.
(Click HERE to see the amazing work taking place at the Logan Center.)
While we were there, their club hosted a prom for a group of Special kids at the center.

Please watch this short clip done by a local TV station and you see how much it meant to all of those involved.  It will touch your heart!
By the way, you will see my beautiful girls in the clip.

I am so proud of them and the difference they are making in the lives of other kids.
Big Brother was there to see them off.
We do not always get to spend Mother's Day with our kids, so being with this part of the family this year was extra special.  They are so much fun.
 We were able to catch Savannah before dashing off for a soccer game.  On Mother's Day of all days!
 A moment of levity between mother and son.
 And, a sweet, tender moment between two love birds.

This past Saturday night was Savannah's first prom.  I think she is gorgeous.  What about you?

Also this past Saturday was college graduation for our Grandson-in-Love from Texas A&M, receiving both his Bachelor and Master's Degree in Accounting.  They will be moving back to Dallas where he has a job waiting at one of the most prestigious accounting firms in the city.  Needless to stay, we are so proud of Brad.
Just one more grandchild mention.  Our littlest one had her dance recital on Saturday night.  Her mom snapped this one before they left the house.  She is just about the cutest little hip-hopper I've seen.

Tomorrow I will finish up my Indiana trip with how Daughter-in-Love and I freshened up her family room for spring and summer.
