Walked two miles with Bill at the SportsZone.  We went to get gas and got our $1 off all 35 gallons.  We paid 1.16 a gallon which was great.  I went and got gifts cards for Christmas that quadrupled gas points so we have another $1 next month.  Got some groceries at Aldi's.  Came home and worked on the Newsletter.  Bill and I went to Culver's and then went to SkyZone to celebrate Max's 13th birthday and Hailey's 15th Birthday at their party.  It was so much fun.  Pizza and cookie cake were delicious.  Bill ate ahead since the pizza had cheese on it.  Max was happy with all of his nice gifts.  He's has such great friends.  Hailey doesn't get to have her gifts until her birthday.  She has such great friends too. We came home and watched a Hallmark Movie.  

11/29/18...Took Melissa to therapy, Stopped back at her house and got her laundry together to do, Picked Melissa up and picked up coneys for lunch , Melissa came over, We baked cookie cakes, Went to the Boars Head Festival

Sweet note Bill put on Facebook 4 years ago and I never seen it until today in my Facebook memories.  It too me a minute to get it.  

Had a nice visit with John today.  We put this puzzle together.  He was a little down about having to be at HealthSource.  We did a devotion and then I prayed for him.  He was doing better after that.  I asked him if I could get anything for him next time I come.  He said all he wanted was a hug.  What a sweet person he is.  He used to work on sewing machines and he gave all the girls and Mykenzie sewing machines

This cute picture came up in my memories on facebook today.  I sure miss my Mocha.  Always happy I get my Abby time when I go to Melissa's though.

Bill loaded the clothes baskets with Melissa's laundry in my car and then I went to pick her up for therapy.  Dropped her off at therapy and went back to her house to get her laundry so I could do it while she was in therapy.  I forgot to get it when I was there before.  I came home and did the laundry.  Picked her up and we picked up coney dogs and took them to her house to eat.  After that we went to Walmart and picked up chocolate chips and butter to make chocolate chip cookie cakes for Max's Birthday Party tomorrow.  We came to my house and made the cookie cakes, Melissa folded her laundry, and we watched Steven Furtik on the computer.  Vikki had told me how much she liked his message and it touched her heart so much she was crying.  It was a very good message and touched our hearts too.  I took Melissa home, and then stopped at HealthSource to see John Wells.  We had fun putting a puzzle together.  Had a nice devotion and time of prayer.  Came home and made dinner and then went to Vikki's to pick Melissa up to go to the Boar's Head.  Bruce was at the church with the kids.  The Boar's Head was amazing tonight.  It was so much better than the night of rehearsal.  The kids all did amazing and the jesters were really funny.  Very touching message.  Mikayla played Mary and Mr. Sharmans baby played baby Jesus.  The baby started crying a lot and Mikayla remained calm and finally got the baby calmed down.  She did an amazing job.
Loved seeing the kids in it.  Hailey was beautiful and did an amazing job.  Max was an amazing huntsman and looked really nice in his costume.  Jack and Evan did their parts really well and looked so cute.  They did amazing at their singing, even though (Mr. Parks) one of the jesters was pulling their hats over their eyes and being really silly.  They just kept singing and smiling.  What a great night!  Bill is going to the Boar's Head on Sunday too.  Wes, Gayla, Joel, James and Diane are going too.  Melissa and I will be at Brittany's shower with Kimmy and Vikki.

11/28/18....Walked at SportsZone, Went to Melissa's, Did Lesson, Went to Caregroup

Isaac and Peyton in their his new snow pants and her new snowsuit.  They fit good with boots and will be good for a couple of years probably.  They are pretty excited to get to play outside in the snow.
  

Found this written on my boogie board on my refrigerator.  What a sweet boy to write this to his sister.

Bill and I walked two miles at the SportsZone.  I came home and did some more of Melissa's laundry.  Took Melissa's laundry to her and visited with her for a while.  Brought more laundry home to do of hers.  Sure is different doing laundry for 6 than it is for two.  Met Vikki and the twins at Walmart and found snowsuits for them.  Not too many snowsuits left.  Walked through the toy department because the kids wanted to look for stuff to put on their Christmas list.  When I got home, I did my lesson for care group.  Went to care group.  Had a good lesson and good discussion.   Did a lot of reminiscing with Wayne and Cheri about our time at Amazing Grace.  Lots of great memories.

11/27/18..Went to breakfast, Took Melissa to therapy, Went to Flint CMA chapter meeting

Love spending time with the Lord by the Christmas tree in the morning.  Went to breakfast at Sullivans.  Good time visiting with each other and praying together.  After breakfast, Bill and I went and picked up water from Shays.  Came home and started Melissa's laundry.  She had some washed that just needed drying, and some blankets and clothes that needed washing.  I went back to pick her up from therapy.  She was on the lokomat.  I went and talked to her in patient therapist, Shewale.  Told him she was very happy to have him on that Saturday on the lokomat.  He asked me why she fainted.  I told him she fainted once before on him and he knew what to do is why.  He laughed.

Bill and I went to the Flint CMA Chapter's meeting with Wes and Gayla.  Had a nice time.

 Lots of school closings because of the snowstorm.  None of my grandkids have school.  They were sure hoping they would have today off.  Nice for Kimmy to have a day off after getting back from her trip.  Bill went to the SportsZone, but I stayed home and hibernated today.  Vikki, Peyton and Isaac came over and spent the day with us.  The kids helped me decorate.  Isaac did the nativity, and Peyton and Isaac decorated the little tree in the family room.  They did a great job.  Vikki brought Lucy and she sure was a great doggie today.  She even laid around a lot.  She loved being in front of the fireplace.  We had a nice visit and it was so nice having them over for the day.  Bill worked hard, plowing the driveways and shoveling and snowplowing paths.  We watched a Hallmark movie and had popcorn in the evening.

Hailey when she used to decorate my tree

 Went to church.  Great message and worship.  After church, Diane and her son James wanted us to go out to eat.  We went to the Olive Garden.  We had a nice visit and the food was delicious.  After we got home, I put some more Christmas decorations out.  Melissa, Bruce and the kids got back from Muskegon.  Bill and I went to Vikki's to drop off her cake pan.  We stayed for a while.  Bruce dropped Melissa off at Vikki's while he took the kids to get their costumes on for the rehearsal of the Boar's Head.  Kimmy, Jared and the boys got to Vikki's while we were there, so that made my day.  I got my hug from Kimmy, and then went out to the van to see the boys and get my hugs.  Wyatt was sure happy to have his family back and they were very happy to see him.  Bill, Melissa, Evan and I went to the church at 6:30.  The kids all did an amazing job.  Love the Boar's Head.  Such great music, singing, acting and the focus is on Jesus.
