So Many Memories

This day, in 1988 was one of my special memories of Dad and I.
We had restored the sleigh and had harness and sleigh bells all set and ready, awaiting the big snow. Finally, it came and with snow flakes tumbling on our faces and grins from ear to ear another day with Dad that magic happened had arrived and the sounds of the jingle bells, I can still hear..

Thanksgiving and more

Starting from the bottom picture, you will see that Springland has been a fun place the last two weeks. Louis has been doing honey do's everywhere. He has even checked all 5 chimney's for Santa's big day. Mother came out for a little R and R and I had Sarah, Laura and Esther wash windows. We had 3 days of landscaping done and praying Louis's grass seed comes up before old man winter really sets in. Last Saturday, Gaege, pops in for a few hour visit while his Dad and Kyle headed out for a men's night out. Wednesday night brought Chad , Lisa and Gaege back for a 2 night stay. Thanksgiving morning, Rob brings a friend, Felley, for 8:00 breakfast and introduced her to football. It
is great to have all my kids home for Thanksgiving. They all chipped in to get the nativity out of the attic and helped erect it around Louis's new stable he built. Felley, has been here for less than 3 weeks and we all tried to explain why Americans celebrate Thanksgiving. Gaege, went looking for a place to mine for rock. He was all equipped with welding visor and an archaeologist hammer. A precious and unique grandchild, I have. He is my star as you will see in the picture. Lisa , Chad and Geage, left Friday morning and late Friday night the Sabonis-Chaffee and the Regas's plus Mom, came to spend the night. This happens very rarely, but when it does, its always a treat. Thank you Merry for letting me share your children and see what it's like to have 5 grand children!! Now, let's get to checking off our list for the rest of the month. Life is G O O D!!!

Cancun






Louis and I had a beautiful sunny 4 days in Cancun. The Valentina Resort was beautiful and the food delicious. We enjoyed jumping the waves in the ocean and floating around in the beautiful pool. Each night was great shows of fire dancing, bellie dancing and Mexico culture. Flying into Atlanta brought us to a wonderful crab cake dinner at Merry and Terr"s. A great get away for us.

Grandboys


Friday, Louis and I took off to Memphis to watch Gaege wrestle and Kayle play football. It was a great trip to see these boys excel in their sport. Kyle is the kicker at his new school, Arlington High School and it looks like Gaege is going to follow in his Dad's footsteps and learn to wrestle. We had the pleasure to bring Gaege to Springland to spend 3 nights with us. What a joy to have him around. He earned a little money working and had a lot of fun playing tag football with Uncle Rob, Lulu and Juju. Can't wait until they both can come back to spend some time with us. What a treat!
