Christmas Post #7 2009

Thursday, December 24th, 2009

Oh Christmas Eve, Oh Christmas Eve, how lovely are thy memories! Busy and beautiful day. Caitlan was out early to join Kyle’s family for ice skating. Brendan, Kara, Ian and I headed into Richmond where Ian did his characteristically last minute shopping while the rest of us braved Krogers for the Christmas Day snack buffet. […]

Christmas Post #3 2009

Sunday, December 20th, 2009

The Solstice! Today was too short! Up early to go to church at St. William. What a precious church and congregation. They were having breakfast with Santa, but I skipped the pancakes and headed to the dreaded Wal-mart for some shopping before the crowds. I call Marty to see if he could help me with […]

Easter

Praise the blessed Savior of us all! He lives! He has risen! Alleluia! It was a beautiful spring day in the Valley. We attended the Easter Sunday service at Sacred Heart Church in Liberty and tried to squeeze the whole Clan into three seats. It did not work. The House of Jay sat elsewhere. It […]

I went to a 2 year old’s birthday party today! What fun! A bunny cake, bubbles, and party dresses! The best part, though, was Juliana’s christening of my brother as “Aunt John!” You can see more photos at:alt=’100_4796.JPG’

No one could have given me three greater gifts. Thanks, Chippy. My heart misses you so.

Too Cold to Go to School

Friday, January 16th, 2009

This is the coldest it has been for several years–single digits. I always worry about Kelley Ridge when it is that cold, so I headed back after school knowing that they had already called off school due to low temperatures. I got there about 9:30 p.m. and couldn’t unlock the gate–the lock was frozen. I […]

A Week Back

Saturday, January 10th, 2009

Monday saw me back to school, and since report cards are coming out, I was very busy all week. As is my wont, I procrastinated over the break and did not grade all the library folders that I should have. So this week saw me playing “catch-up.” On Monday night Jerry came to Kelley Ridge, […]
