DECEMBER 26 thru DECEMBER 30, 2019 FIGHTING THE FLU

The days after Christmas were worrisome as little CA , her mom came down with really bad cases of the flu. Daughter said it was the sickest she had been in her memory. IR spent the days with us while son-in-love took care of daughter and CA. CA concerned us the most as this is the first sickness she has had since her heart surgery but thankfully she was able to fight through the flu.

IR was okay for a few days at least giving daughter time to recover some before she too came down with a milder case of the flu.

#2 son and d-in-love Tif got news that their house would be finished in about 45 days or less.

I love the sunsets this time of year they all seem to be so colorful.

I finished my 2019 market days on Saturday  December 28th with a pretty good day of sales thankfully.

Thankful for the short days of flu for daughter and the girls and praying that hubbie and I are able to avoid getting it.

God Bless and Happy New Year.

CHRISTMAS DAY 2019

Christmas day started easily as we got to lay in bed as long as we dared before the animals were raising cane for their breakfast.
Daughter called and wanted us to come over there for breakfast. She had made some delicious French toast from her sour dough bread.
IR and CA were happily enjoying what Santa left for them. This "jump-per-reen" was IR's favorite !!

We left there and stopped by #1 son's house to check if Santa stopped there. And he surely did !!!

EL and BB also got a visit from Santa and were impressed that the reindeer liked the carrots they left for them.

We came home to spend a quiet day just relaxing.

Thankful for the Reason for this Season.

God Bless and Good Night

LATE CHRISTMAS SHOPPING

This year there just hasn't been anytime for Christmas shopping so we set today as our shopping day a couple weeks ago. And wouldn't you know it is rainy cats and dogs this morning .
We headed over to the Asheville Outlets with IR as daughter is taking CA to the doctor for a check-up.
IR thought this was a grand adventure and loved every minute of the day.

Daughter and CA met us at the outlets to finish some of her last minute shopping also.

We got all our gifts bought and headed home still in pouring rain.

After hubbie and I finished chore we wrapped all our presents and put them under the tree.

CA is a happy girl these days, sporting her Christmas head band we found her today.

Thankful for the traveling mercies in the rain today and thankful for the Reason for the Season.

God Bless and Merry Christmas
