Do you want to see what can make this Noni's heart beat nigh-on right out of her chest? I had a text early yesterday from my daughter that the Little Men had sent me an e-mail. I was away from home, had lots going on, but was excited to back to the house and see the e-mail from my Little Men. It always means I get some good pictures of them!
But, this time I had a power point presentation! They had outdone themselves! If I could have figured out how to get it on here, believe me I would have. As, I read it I got too excited, then tried to caution myself not to read anything into it. I had to call her just to see if it could be true (you might know, at first I thought it meant home for good).
I LOVE THIS!

little men's big adventure
ramblings of a road trip
Roo (Littlest Man): “I see you’re bound for Texas.”
Alex (Little Man): “Sure am. In fact, I’m headed straight for Noni’s. I figure if we leave now, we’ll make it there for Christmas. Are you looking for a lift?”
Roo: “You better believe I am! Can you help a brother out?”
Alex: “Sure thing! Let’s get you loaded up. Good thing you’re small. The coupe doesn’t have that much space, you know.”
Roo: “Yes, it looks a little like Luigi. We’ll probably be past ready for the big open spaces of Texas after all this! At least that’s my assumption. I’ve never actually seen it, you know.”
Alex: “Just you wait! You’re in for the time of your life. Let’s go! Noni’s waiting!”
OH, YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH NONI IS WAITING!!! Now, there will be Christmas. =) Here is one of the powerpoint pages. I have no idea how I mangaged to get one and had NO LUCK trying to get the second one.
Amanda, you really know how to make your old Mom's day. Thank you from the very bottom of my heart! YES!! My Little Men are coming for Christmas!!
I also want to make a special thanks to all who took the time to muddle through my last, long-winded post and gave such thoughtful responses. I appreciate you so much. I loved hearing about how blogging fit into your lives. I'm so glad it does.
Hope each of you receive a gift of good news today...

That is so cute. I know you are excited. My grandgirls from Nashville and the new future little boy will be here for Christmas, too.
How sweet and creative! I'm not near being a grandparent yet, but I know that most grandparents LOVE seeing their grandkids. What an exciting time for you.
these photos are so darn cute!!!
It is NOT too early to start holiday preparations--especially when you know you're going to have a good one!
Best,
Susan
Let the shopping and decorating begin! I love seeing your Little Men on the streets of my home town!! I think they are growing up on a street very near where I grew up.
Best,
Bonnie

Tanna, you are so lucky to have such a wonderful daughter who does everything she can to make sure you are a part of the lives of those little men even with distance between you. I can't believe she made signs and a powerpoint presentation. only make powerpoints for work. :/ Creative and fun! I know you will be counting the days. :) Best wishes, Tammy

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SANTA MADE MY WISHES COME TRUE TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ( they will be even truer if we can get them to Aunt Mel's and Uncle Russell's house as well as Mawsie's :)) SUPER EXCITED for you Aunt Tanna !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is so sweet and precious! How does your daughter find the time to do all of this? I can see she takes after you!
My grandsons are so close in age to yours, Tanna, so it is always fun to see the comparisons. My oldest has the same car and his little brother also likes to sit in his bumbee chair. :)
It will be a very happy Christmas at your house this year! In my case I will be the one traveling.
Too too cute!
We don't yet know if our little guys will be coming here for Christmas - our son and DIL haven't yet decided and I'm DYING to know!
What a thoughtful, clever daughter you have... and she makes beautiful babies!!
Congratulations on your good news... :)
Blessings, Debbie
With the boys at such sweet ages Christmas will surely be special. I'm so delighted for all of you. The pictures of your little guys are wonderful. The baby is growing so quickly :-) He'll be creeping for the holiday. Have a wonderful day, Tanna. Blessings...Mary
This is just about the cutest thing I have ever seen. I just love your daughter's creativity, and what I love even more is her obvious heart.
That is the cutest way ever to tell you they are coming for Christmas. How sweet. I can only imagine how excited you must be to spend some hands on time with your "men" and their momma!
That is TOO, TOO cute. Amanda...you are one creative Momma!!!! Your boys are BLESSED to have you girlie!!!
WHAT FUN TANNA! It is such a beautiful thing to have that visit count down!
What a gem your daughter is. Really fun and now you have something to look forward to. Have a nice, brisk fall weekend!
You must be so excited! Those photos are too cute. We used to live in Lindale, just down the road from Tyler!
How exciting! I bet you'll be decorating very early, or maybe you've already started....lol! We will be having our entire family here for Christmas this year. We just recently moved close (within 45 min.), so everyone can come to Nana's for the first time in eons!
:) CAS
How sweet! What a fun way to send a message.
I love the term 'Noni'. I had never heard that before we moved to Butte. My neighbor took my daughter on as her adopted granddaughter and explained why her kids called her 'Noni'. She says it's Italian. And they are Italian. The boys call her husband 'The GodFather' haha
Absolutely adorable! Excited for you!!!
hugs,
tara

Big hugs from Indiana

Yea for a visit from the little men! I hear that we will get a quick visit from them in the DFW area too. SO SO EXCITED! And I appreciate you letting them away for a short while!!!! I know that is not easy. :-)
Okay if this is the very BEST daughter in the world AND PRESENT - I am so very happy for you. I KNOW it means the very world to you.
