SNOWY DAY IN MICHIGAN

Hi everyone,
Well, we have snow on the ground and it is about 30 degrees outside today. Suppose to be 55 Wednesday and Thursday. Heat wave. ha!ha!
Wish I could get this computer to download pictures, but it just won't do it. Good thing Teresa downloads pictures for us on this site. Really enjoy them... Can't wait to see the pictures of Christian having breakfast with Santa. That was cute Teresa, that Christian finally sat on his lap and said, "that wasn't so bad, that was just like sitting on your lap." How cute. Seems like just yesterday you two were little and I was taking you to see Santa. I remember when Frank was little and he had breakfast with Santa. He was the only child to show up and had the whole hour with Santa eating breakfast and laughing and talking. Do you remember that Frank?
When I see the pictures Frank and Christen have posted on their website, I can't wait to get down there. It is so beautiful. I love seeing the pictures and hearing what you two are up to.... Thanks for having the site. Enjoy that experience down there you two. If we could all be there with you , we would.
Do you realize that you all live in such a beautiful places? Frank and Christen in the Cayman's and Ryan, Teresa and Christian in Traverse City. You all know how to enjoy life and I am so happy for you all.
Rick and I haven't been up to a whole lot. Pretty much just hung around the house this weekend. Rented some movie, Deep Water and it was terrible. Don't waste your money. It was really bad.
Haven't seen any deer out hunting. The property Rick leases is pretty wet and with all the rain, each day he goes out there, it has crept closer and closer to his blind. Already had to move it once cause it got flooded. I haven't went out since Saturday. Was pretty boring when you don't see anything. It was funny, Friday night Mark and Rick were hunting so Julie and I met them at the Cascaddin for fish dinner afterwards. When I was pulling out of the driveway, just as I turned on the road, there were 6 deer standing in the road, one of them a buck. Rick just said "that figures". We put some corn out in the yard, so maybe we can get one here.
Christmas sure in coming up quick. Been trying to get some shopping done here. Need some more ideas from you all. For Teresa and Christen: Gold or Silver???
Looks like it will be a busy week for us all. Thanksgiving and then someones birthday on the 25th. Hmmmm.... Will probably go see Grandma in the morning and then to Rick's mom's for dinner. Hope you all have a wonderful and happy thanksgiving. Will be thinking of you all. Looking so forward to Christmas and coming to the Cayman's.
Take care and know that I love you all very much,
Love,
Mom
P.S. Rick says hi to all......
