Don't Ask Me!!!

Don't ask me what happened because I don't know the answer. Something is not working for me today. My choices of fonts and sizes are not showing and this is so tiny, it may be difficult to read. Also my picture did not wait for my comments. Anyway, the picture that ran away all by itself, is of the other end of the table when we had "Devin's Party" a week ago. Be sure to click on the picture so you can see it full screen!!! Andrew's plate is empty except for the bite that is on it's way to his mouth!!! Remember to slide side to side, also up and down so you can see the entire picture and all the expressions.

Well, this has been a different week for us. I had to wait FOUR days to read two very welcome postings. Vicky, your post was so interesting and even though I was not present, I remember so well the excitement and how special the evening, Nov. 1st, 1969, was for you and Ron. Ron was so anxious to tell us about you. I have often commented that it is unusual that one's brother could pick out a life-mate for another but I think Roger did a WONDERFUL job of picking you for Ron. You have blessed our family in so many ways and we are very thankful for you.

Thank you, Darla, for your kind remarks and you are most welcome for your "Bed and Breakfast" on Holland Hill. We are the ones who were blessed by your being here and spending time with us. I, too, think it was great that Kristen chose to spend time with us rather than to go to the movie. Tell her I had to make bread and rolls all alone last evening!!! I did have help eating them but wish she could have been here too. I will post a picture of her making the bread as soon as the "system" decides to do what I want it to do.

We spent four days in Branson at Westgate Branson Woods with our friends, the Fenleys. It was a very fun and relaxing time. We did some interesting things and spent "quite-a-bit" of time around the card table!!! Imagine that!!! We had a very comfortable, fully equipped 2 bedroom, 2 bath condo. Couldn't have asked for anything nicer. The weather was PERFECT the entire time we were there.

Things have been much quieter here today than they were a week ago. G.J. and Meagan came down yesterday so they, Sherlyn, Jan and Courtney joined us for our noon meal. It was a little less elaborate than the one we had a week ago but it was OK.

Kim, thank you for your comment last week. We wish you could have been here with us last Sunday. Hope we get to see you over the Christmas Holidays.

Time now for us to go to church so this will be continued at a later date. I wish for everyone to have a great week. We are setting our sites now on Thanksgiving (we have no plans) and then our early Christmas arrivals. Dec. 13th is only 6 weeks away, so everyone mark your calendars!!!!.

Love you all,
Dortha
