Hoping to create a journal of our goings on and post often. Not sure how to archive yet month by month so for now all of October and November will appear on the site.
Well I'm back to work now and must say am very busy. I hate to leave Libby but am grateful for family who has been so helpful. Found a sitter who happens to be an old friend that grew up with Matt and Laura. She lives in the neighborhood and feel she is very trustworthy. Mom watched Libby once a week for me, Kay and Beth will continue to each have her once a week. I am spoiled.
Josh is home!!!! He arrived yesterday and got a job already today at Radius in Gurnee as a machinist. He has tentative plans to save up some money, fix his car, and drive down to Scott AFB to check into the reserve education program. I am so happy to have him home and will post pictures as soon as I take them. He is handsome as ever, very healthy.
Joe had a birthday 11/11... the big 15. He had ten girls over here the day of his party and all but one of the guys he invited were no-shows. Wow! What a differene between girls and boys. We made all this pizza and had tons leftover. (Would have been gone if 11 boys were here and no girls) Also, there was no cake. The girls asked for it though and I was ashamed for not making one - we had his birthday cake on his actual birthday the day before the party. I don't think the boys would have cared about cake with Pizza, chips, and junk food all over the place. The plan was for a bonfire outside but we got rained in. Still, I think everyone had fun.
Dad and Renee got married! There are posted pictures.
Dick and Kay renewed their vows as part of a 50th anniversary celebration. 50 years is a long time! There are posted pictures of this also. This was late October.
I can't think of anything else over the last couple of months so will close.
