Wes and Bill trying to figure out how to set up the Blink Wes got

New Comforter on the bed upstairs.  Vikki got one like it and told me how nice it was.  It sure is a lot easier to make the bed with this one

 Got up early to check and see if any schools were closed.  None of our grandkids schools were closed.  I looked outside and everything was beautiful covered in white snow.  Vikki called and said she didn’t think Kimmy would come over today because of slippery Roads.  They were both coming over again today, but decided not to.  I didn’t want them driving on slippery roads either.

We read our Bibles and devotionals. then Bill went out to snowblow the driveway and side walk. I made another batch of Chocolate Crinkle cookies for our Christmas Eve family Celebration.  I also made an Apple Cake using a recipe out of my Bronner’s Cookbook to take to Wes and Gayla/s later.  

Bill and I hooked up the Spectrum modem.  Bill stopped in and told them he might be changing to Verizon and the lowered the price by $40.  Yay! They said it is faster than the one we have.  Bill took that one and turned it back in to them.  

When Bill was done collecting money at Pat’s for the Marine Corp League, he called me and I got everything ready to go to Wes and Gatyla’s for dinner.  The cake was still warm when we got to their house.  We took Cool Whip to put on top of it.  I also packed up some cookies in a container Gayla had sent cookies to me in.  We had a really nice time.  It is good to see Wes walking with the boot on.  His foot is healing nicely.  We ate delicious chili, rolls, and corn bread that Gayla made,  Then we had apple cake for dessert.  After that, we played 3-13.  Bill was the happy winner.  We played a game called Frenzy Match.  We competed with each other to see who could match the card flipped over and put our cubes with different things on them in the same pattern as the card.  I won the first time and Bill won the second.  We visited more and then headed home.  Vikki FaceTimed me while we were still there and showed me her kitchen booth she got.  It’s really cute.

Here’s a picture of it
