Bowling Alley on New Year's Day
Lindy was exceptionally excited at her birthday party
Lindy's Dora cake
Christmas Day with my brothers and sisters.After several doctor's appointments, John and I both are healthy and happy.
We celebrated Lindy's 4th birthday on the 29th. She certainly had a good time. She was so wound up, it was fun to be around her and see her so excited. I think she was more excited about her birthday than she was about Christmas. Perhaps that's because it was all about Lindy. Gina made her a Dora cake that she had requested.
New Year's Eve was spent at Gina and Jim's house. We played Euchre, the girls against the boys. The boys won every game. That was really irritating! Oh, well, it's just a game. On New Year's Day, our family has a tradition where we go bowling at Colerain Bowl with our Focke relatives and friends. After bowling, my brothers and sisters and their families go back to Mom's and party a little bit more. We eat fried chicken and watch the football games. This year our son-in-law brought a projector and showed the Bengal's game on the wall. It was awesome!
The following day, we had a little snow and ice in the morning and then again in the afternoon. It seemed like the road crews had no idea it was coming. My friends from high school and I got together on that day. Amazingly, all ten of us were present. That's the first time in a long time that we were all together. We call ourselves "The Damn Club". The rest of the week was filled up with the doctor appointments. Glad to be caught up in that department.
We left Cincinnati on Thursday after the last appointment and arrived in Sanford yesterday. The boat is still floating and everything is as we left it. There were no bad smells, which makes us both very happy. We are always afraid that we will miss some food item that might start to smell nasty if it's left on the boat for that long.
We went to Wing House to watch the Bengal's game this afternoon with Norm and Sue. We were all really disappointed at the outcome of the game.
I will try to add pictures to this blog tomorrow. It's late and I'm tired and going to bed. Good night to you all!
