Barb's Gingerbread house and my Welcome sign..Well Happy New Year !!! I got to go to IL. to be with my family this Christmas. I had so much fun. Thanks Barb and Pete for EVERYTHING. They paid for my plane ticket. When I got to IL, it was below zero. Tons of snow everywhere. Then 2 days later, it was raining, and melting, then flooding, then warm. It was very weird.
I can't even remember all I did, but here is some of it.. Barb my sister and I went shopping to Goodwill, Ulta, 1/2 price books, and Sam's and Walmart. We ate pizza, pork chops, went to Gus's with Pete's parents, It was great just being with her and Pete. Jo my other sister, Brock, and I went to IKEA, Portillo's. Mike, Jo Molly , Mike and I went to a very cool place for dinner called TEXAS DE BRAZIL, where they serve yummy meats on huge swords to your table. Oh man it was fun. The salad bar is huge and beautiful. Thanks JO and Mike!
Christmas was so nice to be with everybody. They were very kind to me with all the junk I am going through right now with Bob kicking me out of his life. God will be the judge of all that. I just wished he would be Godly about this.
Molly did my hair again and I love it. She taught me how to use a straight iron. Cool. Molly and Mike and I took Brock to see BEDTIME STORIES, with Adam Sadler. It was great. So cute! While with Molly and Mike I got to see TROPICAL THUNDER, THE NEW BATMAN, SARAH MARSHALL, AND SEVEN POUNDS. I think that is all. We watched a bunch of movies. Brock was wonderful and funny. He is so smart. 4 years old and knows his letters and colors and he is a riot. I am so proud of him. He got a paint swirl set for Christmas and he wanted to play with it a lot. I even went out and bought more card board and cut it to fit. It is fun to watch Brock use his little talents. I gave him a Fisher Price digital camera for Christmas. He is really good with it. Wow. I guess I have taught him something about cameras. He still uses mine with great results. Little Ansel Adams. LOL. Brock has learned to play PBS games on the computer so now he asks Molly and Mike, "Can I go on line?" Sounds so funny coming from a 4 year old. New years eve was a little rough on our whole family with something that happened, but God is in control of everything so I am leaving it to HIM.
I got home Jan 2. I had run out of propane and the house was cold. They can't deliver til Monday, so I have little space heaters around. Brrrrr. Seriously, it was warmer outside than in the house. My land lords will be here for the propane delivery. Without Bob helping, it will be hard to stay here. Again, God is in control of me. Stay tuned.. I will add some pictures to this blog. Thank you to everyone who drove me everywhere, took me out to eat, took care of me, and for all the hugs. I love you all. Happy New Year....love, Gail
