Good morning Last week of November!
Busy work week last week and then this weekend it was Xaviers 4th bday party (his bday is dec. 7).. lots of friends with children were invited at their house. DD, her boyfriend and children also came. it started at 10:00. We left at 2:00 so dd could get the youngest one to nap. DS, ddil and grandkids came around 4:00 for supper. DD and family slept over.
Sunday ds and grandkids arrived early so the children could play together. Everyone left after lunch... and then it was cleanup time.. 4 little tornadoes in the house.

Funny of the week:
WOW the grandkids are growing so fast! Cute pictures of them and you in Chicago - love the one with the Grinch. Little tornadoes do leave hand prints everywhere :) but are always worth it for the joy they bring. Feel better and have a great week.
ReplyDeleteHope you start to feel much better, Christmas movies and cocoa sounds like good medicine. Your grandkids are so cute! Wonderful Chicago Christmas pictures. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteYour photos are so beautiful, especially the one with you and the green figure. Oh, as I read it, you really seem busy. I hope for a beautiful week for you.
ReplyDeleteGet well soon, I hope you'll feel better soon.

Cute pictures. Everyone is growing up. We watch Elf the other night we still laugh 😃 at it.
ReplyDeleteAnother busy week. I hope you feel better soon, both physically and with your worries! I love that saying about retired - I am re-tired every single day! I have been putting on my daily planner *declutter 5 items *throw away 5 items *put 3 items back where they belong *organize one area - it's been helping! Have a lovely week!
ReplyDeleteI miss Chicago during Christmas...enjoy your Grand'littles as much as you can...mine are all grown and don't need me as much:(
ReplyDeleteHi Lucie! Oh my goodness - I can't imagine 4 tornadoes running through...however, I dream on having grandkids one day and would welcome those tornadoes with open arms. 😉 Love the pics of you in Chicago!! You are so adorable by the way. :) And I relate with that funny too well. 😆 xo
