Parades and Farewells

The months of November and December included both fun times and sad times. We said goodbye to a good friend, Tony G, a man who died way to young. But even tougher than that, Rick lost his brother, Gary. It too was way to soon to say goodbye. He will be missed. It reminds us to cherish the times we have together.

We were able to see family from Oklahoma. It was nice to spend an "early Christmas" with them and catch up on happenings. We saw Jeanie and her family, celebrated December birthdays and went to the big parade in Frederick.

PJ's and Parades

I have not posted in awhile and we have been very busy.

Can't believe it's almost Thanksgiving and then....Christmas! The grands are already getting "dressed" in their Christmas PJ's (thanks to internet shopping) and are being required to pose for "pre-season test shots" (insert their eye-rolling here). They are gonna kill us for taking these pics someday. Oh well...good senior picture material.

Hubby & Lil' Earl drove the Vette in the Veteran's Day Parade while Boo and I watched, waved our flags, and cheered for them and all the heroes. It got a little loud for Boo. I don't know why every band chose to stop and march in place at our intersection. Anyway, we picked up Em at the mall and we took all the grands to Chuck E Cheese. They seemed to have a great time but we questioned our intelligence after about 3 hours! (Note to self....do not buy $30 of tokens the moment you arrive. Wait and see how fast they are dropping them in the games first!).

Middle son got a new blue car but I will post that pic next. Until next time.
