Whew it is Sunday and after four fun filled days it is time to get back to reality! We just had a wonderful week end. Non-stop fun and hectic running and then at times just sitting with a cup of coffee and some good conversations. Becki came home for her friend Becky's wedding on Sat. It was a beautiful wedding in the Cathedral which they forgot to turn the heat on for!! There were so many familiar faces like the old days of following the girls in sports. The dance was sooo much fun! I even danced the Tootsie Roll with these girls which was a song they loved in their early high school days!! Poor Becki did not get very much homework done so she will be burning the midnight oil trying to make up for all the fun hours she had. We are anxiously awaiting the arrival of Miss Josie! Kelli's due date is here and so anytime there will be shots of her on the blog so keep looking. I have some of all yes I mean all six of the grandkids and you have to give Jerzy credit he was so patient to do this for me. They all were dressed up and looked so cute and handsome. I wish you could see how many shots I had to take to get two with everyone looking straight at me!!

My new fun ride!
Gary was sooo nice to buy my Christmas present early and now he has no pressure to find the perfect gift because he did it!! I liked this Chevy HHR and Gary really liked it because it is fun and looks like an old car. It has lots of extras that the old Passport did not have and it has tons of chrome. We have had fun trying to figure out where everything is in it! We have laughed a lot about how crazy it is to not know how to open the windows! It is a little different to be setting so much closer to the ground but what I thought was a wonderful ride in the Passport was a lot more jarring than I thought until you get in a new one!! It does not parallel park but I am not sure I could trust a car to do that anyway I always look for a generous parking spot and if I can not find it I just go somewhere else or say to hell with it!! I made the big trip to the grocery store for my turkey and trimmings so I am excited to have that out of the way and Colleen is doing a lot of cooking to help me out so it is looking like we can proceed with this week with not too much stress!! Of course we will have some Robert Redford for dessert.

I have had requests to update so here we go!
Well as you can see it has been hectic around here. I think I am having too much fun! Besides all this was a few good hours behind my mower doing leaves. I hope I am all done as I have said I was done the last three times I have mowed. We wore shorts two days this week and today we had snow and wore winter coats and I for one was freezing I am not ready for this cold weather. The car is cold and your hands freeze from hanging onto the steering wheel. Only in South Dakota can you have the air conditioner on one day and the heat two days later. I guess that is why I live here for the variety. We just had a dusting of snow it was not 3 feet so there are positives to be happy about. Well the holidays are going to be here before we know it. Kelli's baby is only a few weeks from being born so that is so exciting. I can't wait to hold the little darling it has been awhile since we have had the pitter patter of little feet around here. I am not sure Kelli is as excited but I am sure she is ready for this to be over and be on the other side of this baby stuff. She had knee surgery a couple of weeks ago so she is kind of laid up. I am not sure how she can have this baby when she can't nest and do all those crazy things women do before child birth!! Maybe she has Jay doing them while she directs him!!
