Christmas Eve

"You better watch out .. you better not cry ...."

9 days and counting!

Christmas Eve at Paul's house. We are now getting together with our girls on Sunday, so any time on Christmas Eve is fine with us Paul .. just let us know.

What are we to bring?

What is the final on the gift exchange? are we doing white elephant also?

Dad

I don't know who has talked with who, but there has been some discussion about Dad sometime in the near future considering moving to an elderly apartment.

I called The Plymouth (which is right across from the Winter Park Village). Mike's mother lived there for 16 years, it's close to the church, and subsized. They are all newly renovated apartments. A one-bedroom is $678 per month which includes all utilities except cable and phone. There is also a studio (which I don't think he would want) for $550 per month. Right now there is no waiting list.

I just want to put the information out there for all of you.

Love to all-
Andi

Thanksgiving 2008

Hi everyone, I thought we might try using this blog to see if it is easier for us to communicate.

Now that things are settled, would it be okay if I took Thanksgiving on at our house? I talked to Dad and told him that we would cook the turkey this year. He and Aunt Sylvia don’t need to be on their feet all day.

If I can just get a good count as to who is coming from each household, that would help in my planning.

Here is a list to sign up for:

Turkey: Andrea
Stuffing: Andrea
Gravy: Andrea
Potatoes: Andrea
Sourkraut: Dad
Winter Squash:
Green Beans:
Sweet Potatoes:
Potato Chips/Dip:
Olives:
Other Veggie?
Rolls:
2 Pumpkin Pies and Whipped Cream:
2 Apple Pies:

Anything else???
