My Grandpa and Weekend Pics

My grandpa (Dad's dad) had a quadruple bypass open-heart surgery today. I was praying a lot. Thankfully, God brought him through the surgery ok and he's now recovering. I was definitely a little on-edge today until I got the confirming phone call from my dad. But he called me a little while ago and said everything is fine. I'm so relieved!!

On another note, I wanted to share some pictures from this past weekend, so here they are:

On Friday night, as I mentioned I was going to, I went line dancing with Kristin and Julie. It was so much fun!! I'm hoping it will start to be a more regular outing.

Saturday I went to the bridal shower for my wonderful friend Jenn Hadra who moved out to California for her now-fiance. It was good to see her and I got to eat some yummy food. :)

Many of you know that we've had fire-bellied newts and red-eyed tree frogs since last May. Well, sadly, both of our tree frogs suddenly got sick and passed away this last week. Dave and I really have no idea what happened...they were fine and then they were gone. Luckily, though, I happened to take pictures of the last tree frog Saturday just hours before he passed away. He even seemed fine while I was taking these pictures. It makes no sense. :(




Finally, just a couple pictures I took last night. I really like the one of me and Rogan.

  1. Kara, I'm glad your grandpa is doing okay! Grandpas are precious commodities and I sooo miss mine...he passed away in 1982.

    Thanks so much for visiting my blog. Your blog looks like you have lots of fun times. :) My brother lives in Raleigh!!

  2. I had a little tree frog that was suddenly sick like that. He was my class pet at school. I think he was trying to eat a cricket and it landed on a big piece of bark or whatever is in those tanks for them...and picked up the cricket and the bark. He obviously couldn't digest the bark :(
