Mary' family
Hi all family members.............just a quick note to let you know is happening in our family..........
Ken and I went to Chicago a couple weeks ago to Brian and Sarah. We had lots of fun, and did lots of walking...............walking is the prefered method of transportation in Chicago. And we got to meet Brian and Sarah's new addition..........Millie. Yes, they got a second pet. But both dogs are really neat and very well behaved. I do have pictures..........will have to get them posted.
We don't get a chance to see Brian and Sarah as often as we would like, so it is always fun when we do get to see them.
This week end we will have the pleasure of spending some time with Shawn's family. They are spending the week end at a hotel in Warrens WI, so we going to spend Sat afternoon and night there with them. It will be nice to spend some time with Alex and Jordyn. Jordyn and I like to do nails when we are together. When Zachary sees me doing Jordyn's nails he wants his done also. We have gone to a couple of Alex's hockey games for the showcase leaque.........it's fun to watch the team play..........and it reminds of when Brian played, and how much we traveled with him.
Zachary, Dakota and Conrad gets to spend their days with me in child care...........it is always a special treat for them when Grandpa Ken is home from work.
I am looking forward to getting out in the yard to clean up the lawn and flowers, but today we are getting SNOW, but hopefully soon.
I would love to see some of the other families get some articles going........and get to be a real family newletter
love to all
