What better way to spend a "snow day" than reading books, listening to Christmas music, shopping on line, and blogging? Yes, we have a snow day today - nasty winds and LOTS of snow in Cresco (all over Iowa it sounds like). I wouldn't be surprised if we don't have school tomorrow either. Elyse is thanking God right now for the snow as she was to get her braces put on early tomorrow morning in Waterloo, but we have had to reschedule due to the weather. Lucky her! With two basketball games left in 8th grade, she was glad to wait until the games were over to get her braces on any way. She doesn't think about all the AAU games/tourneys she has in January through March, but we'll make her feel good today.
Wayne celebrated a birthday last week so Happy Birthday again to Wayne! We celebrated his birthday by a Christmas dinner hosted by the firemen the night before (which was very nice), Elyse's choir concert the night of, and being his birthday was on Thursday (his "Man Day") he played cards with the guys to the wee hours of the night. Simple for me, being I didn't have to plan anything, but I think he had a great bday! We did go out with some friends, the Lentzs, Saturday night, which was also fun - and we were home by 12:30 compared to the other nights with Chris and Brenda and it's 3:00 a.m.
I put a picture of Wayne and I with a bartending in Jamaica at the resort we stayed at last February. His name was Courtney and he was awesome. Wayne tipped him well the first night, and from then on, we never had an empty glass nor had to ask for something when he was around. It was a great time! Brings back great memories! Thanks for creating so many memories with me Wayne, for being a great father, and Happy Birthday! Love you!
