Happy Birthday Juliet and Good News For Betty

Today is the FIRST birthday of our darling granddaughter, Juliet Elizabeth Cooksey. One of the joys of getting older is becoming grandparents and being able to spoil your grandchild as much as possible. We know we're not biased, but we think she's great!

Happy First Birthday, Chica! May we celebrate many, many more with you.

The good news for Betty is her colonoscopy and endoscopy went well today. There were no obvious problems. The doctor is doing a couple of biopsies, but he doesn't expect any problems. We'll know for sure in a couple of week. Thanks to everyone for your prayers.

Today is October 30 and if today is your Birthday then you share your day with: JULIET ELIZABETH COOKSEY (all around great granddaughter and precious daughter of Wade Daniel and Marie Cooksey), Harry Hamlin (actor, "LA Law"), Henry Winkler (actor, Fonz in "Happy Days"), Grace Slick (lead singer for "Jefferson Airplane"), Ruth Gordon (actress, "Harold and Maude"), Charles Atlas (famous body-builder and sand kicker), Ezra Pound (poet), and John Adams (2nd US President).

On this day in 1938 the radio play "War of the Worlds" was produced, creating a panic in much of the country. In 1961 the Soviet Union test a hydrogen bomb. And in 2000 comedian Steve Allen died.
