What a Fun Saturday!! I loved it.

My friend Ruthi and her four daughters and I had a Girls day. We went to have our nails done, all six of us. The little girls got toenails and fingernails done complete with flowers and snowmen on them. All except little Vicky she just did her fingernails. They all look adorable. Then went to Dynasty Chinese Restaurant for lunch. My son Noah met us at the restaurant and had fun playing with the two youngest girls... they really like his I Phone. After lunch we did a little shopping. I had a blast, and I can't wait to do it again really soon.

It's time for Christmas!! Can you believe It???

This year my big present from Jeff came early. I got to have a decorator and friend come and decorate my tree, mantle and coffee table arrangement for Christmas. She shopped and got me all new ornaments and decorations. I went to work one day and came home to a whole lot of beautiful. I absolutely love it so I'm sharing a little with you.

Happy Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day. We had 27 people for dinner and 8 more family and friends joined us throughout the day. We were truly blessed. Below you can see a few of the faces that joined us. I didn't get around to photographing everyone, sorry about that if you were one of the ones I missed. This photo is of 3 of our great nieces, Samantha, Jessica and Ashley.

We had lots of reasons to be thankful

Leaf Raking and Blowing for the Guys on Sunday

Seth and Kevin got recruited by Dad to help with the leaves. Note the amount of leaves. Jeff had already raked 3 times last week. We have 16 trees and A LOT of leaves!!! The boys carried them down to the ravine in our back yard and dumped them, The leaves from the sides and front of the house go into the street and are vacuumed up by a giant truck.

Leaf Raking and "Blowing" For the Guys

Notice WHO is doing the raking! They had fun though. Kevin was thrown into the leaves at least once by Seth and of course Kev retaliated and got Seth once. I enjoyed watching from my warm living room as is drank my hot cup of tea.
After an hour and a half of working hard, the guys came in and enjoyed hot chocolate and homemade cookies.

I'm Fine

I got my test results back and I Am Fine. Thank you LORD. I will go in next fall for a routine mamogram.

My Weekend Ended up to be Great!

Today (Sunday) Jeff and I decided to walk the Rock Island trail. It was to be in the high 60's and great weather for a walk. We walked to the next town, got a smoothie and walked back. It was great, here is a view of a creek below us. We walked 10 miles. After the walk Jeff came home and washed and waxed the car and racked all the leaves in our yard. We have 16 trees so you can imagine how many leaves we have! He is feeling it tonight. On Friday after my biopsy, Jeff and I went to a local bakery, got 2 pieces of Cheesecake and 2 decaf coffees and went to a beautiful overlook spot and thanked god for my great report. Seth and his girlfriend Cassie went to a birthday party/costume party. Here they are before they left.
Thanks again for praying for me. Until next time, Vic
