The Grandgirls

Maddie is doing better in Math..finally.  She has struggled with Math every year for the past nine years.  She finally “gets” it.  When she shared that news..I was so relieved.  What made the difference ..a teacher.

Maddie

Savannah is driving now..she has her own car.  She tells me she is a very good driver.

Savannah

Paige got to go to a Justin Bieber Concert..I am sure she was hoarse from screaming.  She probably thought it was the highlight of her entire life.

Paige

They have begun Hockey Practice… a great outlet for all their energy!  Yes, that is Maddie behind Paige getting ready to irritate her sister.

These girls certainly keep their parents on their toes.  I was lucky to get the photos I did..they were running around hiding behind and trying to climb trees..and complaining that the sun was hurting their eyes. 

The girls 2006

Paige age 7, Savannah age 10 and Maddie age 8.

This photo was taken in 2006..six years ago..my goodness time flies:)

Beautiful granddaughters. I enjoyed seeing them the way they look now and the way they looked in 2006. Yes, time does fly.

They are fine looking girls, and it's hard for me to believe that six years can make such a difference. It doesn't seem like any time to me! :-)

They are some beautiful grandchildren. They sure do grow up fast though.

Oh my, they are beautiful girls. You are so lucky to be involved in their lives, its the best. I threaten my Charli, if she makes goofy faces at me when I take a photo, those pictures WILL appear on a picture board at some important event in her life. I followed through at her 13th birthday party. Since then....nice smiles!!!

Great photos, great smiles. Wish I had their energy! As the granddaughter, daughter, niece, cousin and the mother of teachers, I thank you for appreciating teachers. They do indeed make a difference.

There is nothing like these years for all concerned... even granparents.

Gail said...

What beautiful girls, uh, young ladies. You have every right to be proud.

Yea, for the math. I'm still waiting for grandson to "get it".

Beth said...

Your grandgirls are beautiful!

Rita said...

Yes, what beautiful, lively young women! Time really does fly! :)

Three lovely granddaughters! How precious. Wonderful pics capturing such vibrancy!

And yes, so much thankfulness for a good teacher who has the knack of getting right to the kernel of the issue--even if it is about math!

LindaG said...

Wonderful. You can certainly be proud.
Have a wonderful week!

They look like they enjoy each other's company - - - maybe most of the time?!!! I have only known a couple of families where the girls were truly sweet to each other and enjoyed each other alll the time. I love their smiles and zest for life that is evident on their faces.
