Shame on me

Time moves so quickly. It has been almost 2 weeks since my last entry. And you KNOW that I have things to talk about!

For New Year's Eve we had Stuart and Natalie Jackson and family to our house. We ate dinner, played Mexican Train dominoes, did fireworks (ssshhh... not allowed!) and toasted to 2008.

Monday was mine and Jeff's 12 year wedding anniversary. We ate dinner at Perry's Steakhouse and used our gift certificate Christmas present from Becki and Michael. Thank you! What a delicious meal. It is really a treat when you eat a meal and every bite is fantastic. I had the roasted pork chop and Jeff had a ribeye. Served with our two favorite sides, augratin potatoes and creamed spinach. We were waiting to order dessert and the waiter brought one out with Happy Anniversary written in chocolate. When I called to make the reservation I was asked if we were celebrating anything and did we want a quiet table or booth. I told her that without the 3 kids with us it would be a quiet table!

The kids are back in the swing of school and activities. Rebekah and Emma should start with soccer in February. We considered Alex doing T-ball but decided to hold off until fall or next spring. So for now he continues to tag along.

Speaking of Alex.. yesterday he told me that when he gets to heaven he is going to be shy with God because God is so big and he is shy with big people. I assured him of God's perfect love and that in heaven there will be shyness or fear or tears or pain. He was cool with that.

My Grandma Pegi is in the hospital so I have gone to The Woodlands a couple of times to visit with her. The doctor's are treating her for pneumonia and expect her to recover. It just takes longer for someone her age, 92 years young.

Hope your 2008 is off to a great beginning!
