Christmas
It was great being with everyone for Christmas Eve and Christmas day. I missed all of you who weren't here but hope you had a great Christmas too.
Brian and Maureen and Ann were all taking pictures. I hope they are able to get them on the Blog so the ones of you that couldn't be here can see.
I love you all

Merry Christmas to you all!
Hope you are all having a wonderful day! We miss seeing you.
We went to our yearly neighborhood brunch this morning and it was lovely as always. The sun is out and it is a near perfect 80 degrees. Cool weather coming in tonight though.
And early Monday morning we head out for New Orleans and a week with Don's family.

Snow!
I understand you all had lots of snow back east ... we just got an inch today but we had plenty on the ground from last week.
We walked downtown early this morning for breakfast while it was still snowing.
Holiday decorating
It is SO freaky to see Chris post photos of my former house.
As of right now, this is how our house is decorated for Christmas. They're supposed to finish repairing the ceiling on Monday but we'll see -- then we'll have to clean up after them. Needless to say, there won't be any decorations up this year.

Fun with Christmas Lights!
Hope that everyone is ready for Christmas. I know most of you guys are getting snow right about now and Beck and I wish that you could send a little down South. We both hope that you all have a great Christmas week! 
Just messing around with the Christmas lights to take this picture. I thought it was different, and decided to share it.Sunday, December 13, 2009

Thanksgiving
Great photo Chris, glad you had a nice holiday. I missed everyone (especially Keith) but am looking forward to my trip to Virginia on Wednesday.
Chesty's recovering from his surgery but he was pretty pitiful for a few days.
Thanksgiving!
Hope that everyone had a great holiday! We had a full house! And now a full stomach with plenty of leftovers!
Here is a photo of the group!

Lithotripsy or surgery??
Chesty's set for Monday -- they're going to attempt the lithotripsy but will have a surgical team standing by if they're unsuccessful. He has to have anesthesia either way so we'll see how it goes.
Thanksgiving
Adam we will miss you at Thanksgiving too. I'm glad to hear that you all are doing well.

My poor baby
Chesty has bladder stones and will have to have them removed.... we have an appointment at the University tomorrow to see if he's a candidate for lithotripsy. If not, they'll remove them surgically and either way he will have to be anesthetized. Of course, my preference is for him NOT to have an incision since it's difficult to keep him from licking or scratching.
I'm heading to Mankato -- 2 hours south of the city to give a lecture tonight on my HeartStrings Project. Wish me luck.
newest trip to the OBGYN
Well Lindsey and myself just went to the OB/GYN for the second time yesterday and the baby is growing well and starting to look more human and less like a peanut. We did all of blood tests and will find out the result's on the 18 and also we will do the test for down's syndrome. I am going to miss everyone over Thanksgiving this year. I hope everyone is going to be safe and have a good time.

Chesty's got a new hoodie
I met with Habitat for Humanity today and was able to donate a couple quilts that I'd finished through my HeartStrings group. It was nice as they were very appreciative and eager to pass them along to two of the families that will get new homes. I hope to have a couple more finished and ready for them when we make our annual Christmas donation.
My group was also featured in a book along with 24 other organizations who make and donate quilts to charitable organizations. It was neat to see the book in print and I give another talk next week to a local group of quilters (2 hours south of Minneapolis) -- probably 60 in this group.
So that's what's going on with me -- what's up with everyone else?

Adam & Lindsey
I shared the news by email that Adam and his girlfriend Lindsey are expecting a baby due May 23 but I thought I share a couple photos. This one of Adam and Lindsey was taken this summer at Big Canoe when we met Lindsey.
And this one a couple weeks ago at her Dr's appt.

Happy Mother's Day
Maureen was the one taking photos so there are none of her but we had a nice little cookout at Kevin's house today. Just 8 of us which is an unusually small gathering for us but really nice.

New dates for Family Reunion
Ann, Kevin, Maureen, and I were talking a couple weeks ago at dinner about the Family Reunion -- with so much going on this summer we decided to look at dates in the fall.
What we're looking at now is the Saturday before Thanksgiving -- November 21st.
Let me know if you have any feedback or questions.

Pat's house
Pat sent me a photo today of the progress on the house. Aren't those stairways to the front door dramatic?
Frozen Lakes
We've been enjoying our visit from Chris and Adam and decided to drive over to one of the nearby lakes today.
It was rather cool to be able to walk on water...
...but the cracks made me a little nervous even though there were lots of people walking and skiing on the lake. I stayed close to the shore.
