~A sign can say alot!~

So....
The first time I saw this street sign, I wanted to steal it!
But.... I didn't! (YET!)

You see this is my Maiden name, My son's middle name

and

then, of course, there is my WONDERFUL

~*~ Grandpa Hines~*~

I LOVED him SO much! He always let me BE me!

I could EAT anything, DO anything & of course, do NO Wrong!
I Miss him VERY much!! He was my buddy!!

He passed away right after Lee & I got married

about 16 years ago!

He was a Hoot!!!

STUBBORN as a mule & So awnry to myGrandma!!!

He used to stand in the house in the front window right in front

of her car as she pulled up and "Flip " her off!!

And... just SMILE & Laugh!!! LOL!!!

He knew just how to get her all wound up!!

HILARIOUS!!!

I am pretty sure when he died, he was pissed off!!

Although, he knew the bible front and back ( He read the entire thing)

& what was awaiting himwas glorious!!!

But I dont' think he was DONE here on earth YET!!

I am certain he needed to paint something, fix something, go for a walk or

make some of his cookies he ALWAYS made!!

Yummy!!

Now, I am HAPPY to say, my children have their "OWN" Grampa

Hines ( My Daddy)!!

And he is one cool dude!! He is not as awnry & stubborn as

"MY OWN" Grandpa Hines though and I LOVE him just as much!!

HINES

A good name to have.

I am sure it means STRONG, TRUE, HUMBLE, REAL

Ya'll have a Great Weekend!!

I'm going to steal my Sign!! Just kidding!!

My GIRL turns 9 on Sunday! We have a FULL weekend ahead of us!!

YIPPIE!!
Lots of LOVE & HOPE,

Gretchen
