Wayne's 1st Blog!

Ok, this is my 1st blog ever, so don't laugh too hard...I enjoyed reading what Cheryl wrote in "Some Mommy Days..." on her web-page-blog-thingy. Whitney is a doll. By the way Cheryl, hugs work on fathers too - even after they grow into teenagers. Hey, no laughing at my fat face, ok. ;)

Ryan got a racquet for Christmas and he's been setting up non-stop racquetball appointments for me at the YMCA ever since. He's actually getting pretty good, and he's fun to play with.

I'll have to post something about Chris or Tiffany another time. They are great too.

Sandie's father had back surgery and she went to Denver for two days to give him some extra support. His surgery went well. Because Sandie's mother has ALS, she doesn't communicate verbally very well anymore: it's difficult to understand most of what she says now. Sandie has been struggling since her mother was diagnosed because ALS is a terminal illness. I'm sure Sandie would appreciate any prayers for her or her parents.

Happy Birthday Kelli!

Snowfall

I am wondering how many in our family are experiencing a lot of snowfall this year. Any good snowfall stories to tell?

My family has been shoveling, and shoveling, and shoveling for about a month. Excellent exercise and it keeps us in good standing with the county laws. I've only heard few grumbles from Paul, who seems to get a lot of the shoveling assignments. Nimitz, one of our kitties, has to inspect the job. She watches from the window. When the walks are clear enough for her satisfaction, she heads outdoors to play for a while. The rest of us are just happy to enjoy the warmth of home and good books.

Love,
Becky

In another attempt to keep family communication going, I've started this blogspot to replace the newsletter mailing. I hope it will be a way for us to stay in touch and inform each other of the big happenings in our lives!
Anyone can post to the site, you just need a gmail account (which is free). Just go to google and create your free gmail account. I can help you with getting on to the blogger, just let me know.
