Nanna's Corner

Why Nanna's Corner

I chose this "Blog Name' as my life revolves around my family. I am known as "Nanna, or Nannie Diane" by my Grandchildren. **My little grandson, Jalen who is almost 3, asked me what my name was, and I replied, "Nanna." He asked again, and I replied, "Nanna'. He then asked again, no, what is your real name? I then said, "Diane." And since then, he has called me "Nannie Diane." (Do you think that has anything to do with Nannie McPhee? I adore my six perfect, precious adorable little grandchildren who are the love and joy of my life. I have a loving, smart and witty husband who is my confident and best friend. I also have five wonderful, intelligent, very handsome and gorgeous children who have married their special-eternal mates. I love each of them dearly and are so grateful they are now part of our Dyreng family.

Madsen Cruise-09

Feb. 16th, the Madsens headed off to San Diego to climb on board the "Carnival Spirit". Then off to the Mexican Rivera - to Acapulco, Maanzanillo and Zihuatanejo. A few highlights of our wonderful week.

It was fun to dress up for dinner. The food was fabulous; our waiters were amazing, and we were truly pampered and spoiled all week. From what I hear, Bret and David gained the most weight!!! It's truly a relaxing vacation. Spending the week with my parents, Aunt Margaret, family and a few friends that like to tag along, was like a story book fairy tale; lots of laughs ... beautiful scenery, and a happy ending, we all returned home safe, content and fulfilled .
