The only one not in the family is the fellow on the left. He's our 18yr old niece's boyfriend.

My son has one of those sticks to put the camera on and stick in the love seat. He's a home appraiser and needs it for his job.

There comes a time when you become mother to your mother.

I laughed cause Dave was asking me something about the camera and he said, "your mom is getting into the cookies."

Our library book club went for coffee and pie last night but it was so loud that we couldn't even hear each other talk.

Our last book was Daniel James Brown and his book called  The Boys in the Boat. We will discuss it next month.

My hubby asked where my friend Barb was and I said, "she hasn't been in the club for a few years now."

Our token man is taking the photo.

They had to find another nativity scene cause the one with the baby taped down already sold at the antique mall.

It was funny cause I gave Lisa a tin shelf that she's been looking at for the last few months and she got me a game board to go with my Chinese checker board from the third row at the mall.

It doesn't have the star but that's alright cause it's Swing checker board from 1939 or that is when it was copyrighted.

I am going to look it up on the internet but if anyone knows how to play it; let me know.

Today at the antique mall a group photo but several folks are on the Witness Protection Program so couldn't get in the photo.

Aunt Rose is in the pink next to me and Lisa is in the black. We had a good visit and lunch.

I just call her Aunt Rose cause she's like an aunt to all of us. Rose is 20yrs older then I am and Lisa is 20yrs younger then me.

I will see Lisa to exchange gifts today, tomorrow it's coffee and pie with the bookclub, and then party all night at the nursing home with mom on Friday.

This house looked really nice in the daylight but there is a house around the corner that looks best at night.

The yard is so packed with lights that there is a traffic jam every night.

A lot of the cars just stop in the middle of the road and tune into the radio station; the lights keep tune with the music.

I told the son to call or email me back if I need to return these and get something else and he hasn't.

Reece wanted Rescue City but mom said that Santa already got it for him.

We give them money with no strings attached but still like to walk in with a toy.

I told Reece that we have a little tree at our house.

He said, "yes , I've seen little trees and they're good, Gran."

He said he doesn't only like cars but the Rescue Station too.

I will ask if that's ok to get him.
