Fun
But the Wind
I wanted to make a trip up to the cabin today to make sure all was well before the winter cold sets in. My grandson volunteered to come with me. He brought his new camera with him and told me all about it. It is quite different from any other camera I have had experience […]
Enjoying the Lights
My neighbor put Christmas lights on our shared pine tree. My mom loves looking at them when she sits at the dinner table. Tonight she decided she wanted to drive around to see the Christmas lights in the neighborhood. Our first stop was Starbucks for hot chocolate. Then we went to our two favorite places. […]
Unexpected Reunion
My daughter in law and I went to a craft fair today at the high school I graduated from. A friend of mine attends it every year and sells her fun crocheted hats and other items. I met her working at a retail store about 30 years ago. We worked with a great group of […]
A Day Out
Today I was treated to an NFL game by my sons and grandson. I knew it was going to be super cold, so I put on all my layers, boots, hats, wool mittens, and borrowed my sister’s long down coat. We arrived at the football field extremely early to tailgate. The guys had packed up […]
Jenga For All
Since my grandchildren were out of school, we decided to have them over to play some games today. My mom was having a very good morning, so that was a blessing. When the kids arrived, we had Jenga all set up and ready to play. It can be challenging to find a game that an […]
Joyful Halloween
This Halloween morning, my mom was reminiscing about how she celebrated the day when she was a child. She said that her dad always baked some special cookies for the kids who would come to the bakery. But the first memory she had of herself celebrating the holiday was when she was in 8th grade. […]
Family Adventure
I reserved an overnight stay at a family hotel that had an indoor adventure and water park. My sons and family were planning on staying overnight last night and celebrating their birthdays. However, one of my sons wasn’t well. So, I cancelled the overnight stay, but took my other son, daughter in law, and two […]
Mani Morning
My daughter in law and I went to a craft fair a couple of months ago and found a vendor who sold the fun stick on nail polish. Several years ago, the girls in the family got together on Zoom and had a nail party. When we saw the polish at the fair, we thought […]
Wonderful Weekend
We had a wonderful weekend here. My out of state brother came for a few days. One day, my other brother, sister and her husband came to the house as well. We took advantage of the opportunity to celebrate my brother’s birthday, which is next week. While the siblings were together, we looked through some […]
Blessed By Family
Tomorrow is my daughter in law’s birthday, so we had a celebration at our house today. She is such a blessing and certainly deserves to be celebrated. We have many kinds of decorations. She chose the unicorn theme and we all had fun with it. She also chose an ice cream cake from Cold Stone […]
