Kristal and Robin brought us a fresh bouquet. A week later they were still beautiful, even the roses. The picture shows she also gave me wine and chocolate, knowing they were my favorite.
The chocolate from Vietnam educated me. They must not believe in sugar over there.
We are pleased Bob was here on his birthday. Below is Linda who worked with him at his last job. They go to plays together. Below we celebrate at Skip's for lunch.
We met Don & Connie at Main Street. Don took some great pictures of the great decorating at this popular bakery. If you don't want to eat and drink it's worth the drive to stop in and take a gander.
It was Don's birthday. Wow, big cupcake there!
Libby and tree at home. Also on cheer leading team and at her birthday party with a special guest. Hmmm
Bruce and Lavern stopped by in November. Was great to see them.
Bob shows his talent with what he can do with a picture, making it into a movie.
There's a story below about this particular one.
Last year Bob and George hadn't put up a tree because they were dealing with George's last days. So I sent a tree for George's bedroom. The picture of that is to the left.
To the right is same picture but Bob's virtual Xmas; memories of his younger days in Iowa. Right there in what is now, sadly, Bob's bedroom.
And this is how Bob and I think of George now. He's earned his wings on earth and is now an angel in heaven above.
Hover mouse lower right corner and you will see this.
The theater where Ella had a part in the Nutcracker. Somebody changed the name of the star. It was a streaming performance Saturday afternoon, Dec 6. Val and family joined me and Ken to watch the show. Val watched on her TV, Ken and I watched on my computer. It was an excellent production and we really enjoyed it.
We think that's Ella on far right. Val took a picture of the screen. This was a top notch production by Red Chair. Kids from 7 to 18 years old. Ella is only 8 and was pleased to earn a part. Ken and I were very impressed with the cast, all of who were very professional.
The warm cozy coat from Shannon last Xmas has been really nice in the cold temps we've had this month.
I've gotten my mirrors clean with a great product from Amazon. It's for cars, but great inside too. I'm looking into the mirrors you see reflected in the mirror behind me. The back of the little TY turkey is a gift from Alice. Many years ago.
My tree this year, which is my favorite: white with blue lights. That's what we always had when Bob and John were growing up in Mitchellville.
