Well, Briggs Michael Winget, my 10th grandchild, came on May 13 @ 7 lbs. 8 oz. Everything went well with the delivery, it was six days after that we had a terrible scare. Our daughter-in-law, Brook, went to the doctor because of terrible headaches. They took her blood pressure and immediately sent her to emergency because it had skyrocketed. They put her on a medicine to bring is down and while waiting for it to come down she had two seizures(biting her tongue all away around-it was swollen so bad she couldn't eat for several days). We found out after tests it is what is called Eclampsia. Most women get it during pregnancy or 12 to 24 hours after birth. It is life threatening. It is very rare to get it as far out as she did and is even more dangerous. She is now at home and has to take it easy until they can get her blood pressure to stay normal. It is not sure how long this can take, they are hoping a few weeks. Brook is such a sweetheart and we were worried to death and pray that she will make a full recovery and give us a happy ending . You can tell grandma and big sister certainly are smitten with him. With three big sisters he will be very mothered.




Another exciting event with a happy ending was Michelle got married to Chris Sauer. What a wonderful man she found for herself. They have been together about 3 1/2 or 4 years now and make each other very happy. They have their farm with their lamas, alpacas, peacocks, ducks, dogs, goats, cats and love every bit it. We are so happy for this union. We are glad to have Chris as part of our family.










Mom giving away the bride. Doesn't Michelle look pretty and very happy?













Even the animals came decorated for the occassion!

Look at the crazy sister in the bright colors. Have to have one in every family that makes us smile and want to be around.

I'm so glad to hear you daughter in law is okay. Is is likely to happen again if she gets pregnant? Scary. Congratulations again, Grandma, isn't life good. Can't wait to see you this summer, I hope you're going to the wedding.
