Hugs to Gracie!!

I love doing that, no one else enjoys it like I do here. LC likes to, but he is still too young to fully enjoy it and is likely to lose interest when he finds a toy. I really want to take him to the Brimfield Flea Market sometime, he loves that stuff, and I want to look for Christmas stuff. www.brimfieldantiquefleamarket.com It is right in the next town from me, less than 10 minutes away.

That flea market looks awesome!

If it makes you feel any better at all, we are sneezing together!!! Hope you get a good nights rest!

oh no.
Hope we both feel better soon. Look after yourself.

Just a question that passed through my mind. Do any of you ever get a little emotional when certain Christmas Carols are played and you listen to them quietly and very intently?

I am thinking this one for me:

 

[xmas365]

Yeah we've had chilly Memorial Days before and HOT Easters. Never know.

This past year we had the windows open for Christmas and a fire in the fireplace at my in laws for Easter.

If it makes you feel any better to have company ... we're expecting 88F today.

It is quite warm today, 86* west of you. I turned the AC on because of the heat.

 

[xmas365]

It is. It floods me with so many memories and also makes me think to the future as well.
I always close the season with this song come january.

The melancholy tone of the song is perfect for the ending of the season to me.

Love, love, love Disney World! PM me if you have any questions. We took DD for her first trip in 2010 & we go back every two to three years. It was to be a "once in a lifetime" trip, but DH was hooked before the vacation was over and promised to take us back again!

Thank you!
My wife and I went for our honeymoon nearly 15 years ago, it will be the first trip for the boys. We have tried planning the last 3 years but something always came up.

Keep cool out there!
Some showers and storms are popping up around here and coming in from the west. It's supposed to be cooler tomorrow!

Meant to reply to your comments yesterday but didn't get a chance. Thanks to all for the warm welcome, thoughts and prayers.


@xmas365 , Hope you and the family are well. How are all your kitty cats doing?

Hope everyone is doing well today!

The kitty's are doing well, we added 3 kittens to the hoard last month. We are all doing very well, thank you.

I am probably in the minority on this, but I can't wait until the highs are in the 40's and 50's.

60S AND 70S!

Probably 2011, trick or treating was canceled, we were without power for 5 days. We took the kids to the mall for the "Mall-oween." Every kid in the region was there. So we went to Target and had the kids pick out a few bags of candy for their trick or treating candy. It is one of those special memories we will talk about forever.

Yeah kids were in our street wearing their Halloween costumes having snowball fights in the street. Was so weird!

This past year we had the windows open for Christmas and a fire in the fireplace at my in laws for Easter.

Let's hope that on Christmas we aren't wanting to wear shorts this year!

 

[Christmas-A-Holic]

Aww, I sure hope you do get answers to what is going on. As I always say, I wish our fur babies could talk and tell us what is wrong. Prayers for her and you too!

We are all doing very well, thanks!

She is doing pretty well, thanks. Still has some tough days, but good overall.
I just set up an appointment for her with a specialist /Cardiologist in October. I hope and pray that we get some more specific answers, and not just more questions.

How have you been?
Thinking of you!

Thank you!
I know, I always tell Har that too <3

I hope y'all have a great evening!

 

[xmastidings]

It looks like the lows are in the 40's and 50's, and the highs in the 70's for the next couple of weeks
Thanks, we are! ...will do!

Ohhhh, I like those kind of temperatures! The time of year to have a bon-fire, a fire in the fire place, cup of hot cider....Ahhhh, the Fall! Such a lovely time of year!!!!

 

[xmas365]

I bet!! It will be a load off my mind too when we finally get our 6 tickets to Hawaii booked for early 2017 - hubby & I, my in-laws, & my bro/sis in-law. Fun. Fun! LOL! Everybody has a different idea of when & where to fly from. We'll figure it out!

That was the problem, we missed out on so many cheaper deals because no one else wanted to make the effort. I would get it all set and no that won't work. We can't book it without them... so on and so on.

I hope y'all have a great evening!

You too, Brad!!

They are beautiful, and we've been enjoying the bonfires on cool nights!
