Kaleb's Traveling Baseball Team (Cavalier's) is having their first week end tournament this weekend. They won their first game yesterday but lost the second one by 2 runs. Andrew and I met Brian, Donna, Kiley, Andi, and Kaleb in Charlotte yesterday to see the second game. Kaleb really played great and it was fun to watch him. He is the youngest boy on the team. He is only 10 and the rest are all 11. Brian and Donna, Kiley and Kaleb stayed with Andi and Steven last night since it was so close to where they play in Charlotte. Brian called today to say that they won both of their games so far. They are playing a game right now and if they win it they will play another game yet. I know Kaleb is excited that they have won so far (so is Brian!).
I forgot my camera, I really have to get better at that, so I have no pix to put on here today from Kaleb's game. I will really try to do better.

I am just now finishing homework and trying to get some reading completed for the next assignment so I can have next week end off. I am looking forward to the entire family being here for Easter!!!! We are going to do the whole egg dying thing and the kids (all the kids) will be looking for Easter Eggs!!! We are going to make a day of it. This will be a great time for all the family to be together for the day.

Just so those of you who know Andrew, our house is still in one piece since Carolina won. He did do some yelling to "pull the boys through". But I am so happy that they won. His mood was really great the rest of the evening and today. Now let's just pray for Monday night!!! Who knows how that outcome will be. Of course all the TV floks are saying it will be Carolina, but that's when they don't do so well usually. So let's hope they don't hear what they've been saying until after the game. Maybe they'll do great then.

Have a great week and enjoy your family during Easter. We certainly will be enjoying ours. Happy Easter to all, Nancy

First Post

This is my first post. I am just learning about this blog thing. But I thought it would be interesting to be able to have a blog of my own. I thought my grandchildren could send me things on it and we could communicate back and forth since they are not living in the same area as I do.
I also thought this would be a way I could communicate with family and friends as I learn more about it and they learn that I have graduated to doing this too.
I got the name from a set of thank you notes my grandmother gave me years ago when I was still in high school. I never could think of a way to use it until now. There is also a children's book about Fancy Nancy that is kinds neat too. So I thought I'd finally found a good use for the words, "Fancy Nancy".
I am really looking forward to Easter this year. It will be the first time that I can remember that I will be able to have all of my children and grandchildren here at home. I also hope to have other family from out of town here too. We usually go to the beach to spend Easter, but this year we are going to be at home. And we will be able to have family and friends here. We may have children and grandchildren sleeping on every conceivable surface in the house and some on pallets on the floor, but we will all be together and that is what is important. We will be dying Easter eggs, cooking, decorating eggs, hiding eggs, and just generally being together. I can't think of a better way to spend a holiday than to have all of my family here with me. I'm really excited about this.
I hope to learn how to post pictures and to add more stuff as I go. Like I said I am learning. But maybe I'll have some wonderful Easter pictures for all to see later.
Have a wonderful week everyone, Love, Nancy
