Thank you Thank You
Thank You Patsy!! I can once again change my sidebar items on my blog such as:
the books I have read and the movies we have seen lately. YAH YAH!!!
Let’s see now what have we been doing since the end of July. Routine doctor and dentist checkups (although
I did have a dental problem (not a root canal but redoing a root canal) that I finally
had taken care of in September. All is
well now. We visited with friends and
kept company with four of our granddaughters. The picture on the left at my birthday party shows left to right Aubrey (4 1/2), Mary Lou (?), Corri (25 on 12-27), Bricelyn (2 1/2 on Corri's lap) and Sophia (6 1/2). The picture on the right shows Julia (12) on the left and Helena (17) on the right in Vienna.
Luckily Dan sends up pictures of our other two granddaughters so we can
keep up with them as well.
We helped our Aunt Phyllis celebrate her 90th
birthday with a small party given by her children. It was
great to get together for a happy occasion. Hello Aunt Phyllis!! I think you and our friend Patsy are the only
ones who really read our blog. Hope you
continue to read it. I forgot I was
supposed to stop by and see you before we left.
I will give you a call in a few days.
We stayed in Minnesota until the 5th of
October. The only reason was so we could
watch our daughter-in-law, Laura, run the Twin Cities Marathon. SHE DiD IT!! The whole 26 miles in 4 ½ hours. Way to go Laura. Laura worked so hard for the past umpteen months
it was great to see her participating and finishing in the marathon. She was a very dedicated runner. You could see it on her face. She passed
by our group so quickly I didn't even get a picture of her running.
The next day we left for Florida. We took 5 days to get here. We stopped in Le Claire, Iowa to see the
store of the American Pickers, called Antique Archaeology. The owner of the store, Mike Wolfe and his friend
Frank Fritz, travel around the US and pick up things that they deal on with the
owners. It looked mostly like junk to me
but it was fun to see this store and the one in Nashville, Tennessee.
From there we changed plans because of a hurricane on the East Coast and dropped down to Huntsville, Alabama to Midway, Florida and to Deer Creek our home in Florida. We had a lot to do with landscaping (Palm trees grow like crazy), cleaning (house and shed were power washed), and uncovering and washing cars and golf cart. It is all fun stuff when we know we will be here until next April.
In September we had a 50+ reunion put on by Washington High School
where we both graduated from. My 50 year was last year so this is 51 years for
me and 52 years for Pete. It is so much
fun to see and visit friends.
