DAUGHTER'S SURGERY

My daughter, Suzie, has been one sick puppy and had to have surgery on Wednesday (all that Lady Stuff).  She came home yesterday afternoon and is doing good so far =).  Like the rest of us, who has had this done, she will be off work six weeks.  Josh spent the night at the hospital with her and just about froze.  I got a text around midnight saying "I'm freezing".  Being the good granny that I am, I told him to cover up his head and go back to sleep.  Guess it worked, he didn't text me back.    

BATTLE OF THE SALONS...

Grand Daughter, Katy, had the second "Battle of the Salons" in Bakersfield, Ca. and WON AGAIN!!!!!
She is so pretty.....and yet she has no clue how beautiful she is...inside and out. We are soooooooo blessed to be apart of her life....Love you Katy....

HOPPER HERITAGE

We took another genealogy trip last week to "COBB CEMETERY" a few miles East of Kansas City, MO.  My Great Great Grandfather, John David Hopper,  was the first person to be buried in Cobb Cemetery in 1843. Some say his wife, Mary, is buried here but has no stone. His son, William and wife Letty Cobb Hopper are both buried here as well as their daughter, Mary R. Hopper.  William Hopper was in the Civil War battle that took place in Lone Jack, Mo.  Lone Jack is about 10 miles from the cemetery.   There are no dates on John David's grave, just his name and the D is backwards.  We took Hy Way 50 to State Hy way 131 to HH and down Shippy Road.  I was really surprised we found it but oh so happy!

ELK RIVER...

Last week we passed the Elk River just out of Pineville, MO. and it was beautiful and quite.  It's still beautiful this Memorial Week-end but it not quite!  There must be thousands of people on this river from Pineville all the way to Noel.  Every one is having fun in this beautiful spot.....

SALUTE TO YOU...

Sending a salute today, on this Memorial Day, to my nephew Jon Hopper, our grandsons, Jarrod Scott and Justin Glover....We love you all and so proud of you....
