Some of us spend New Year’s Eve walking through our lives, room by room, drawing up a list of work to be done, cracks to be patched. Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives, not looking for flaws, but for potential. 

HAPPY NEW YEARS EVE

Christmas 2018

Christmas this year is was quiet.  Georgie was unable to make it home from Michigan so it was me, Jake, Grace, Moose, and Bandit home for the holiday. Fortunately, Georgie will be traveling home in January - can't wait to see him.  I had a few days off from work and was able to relax and enjoy the holiday.  Looking forward to 2019!

Thanksgiving in North Carolina

Grace and I traveled to North Carolina this year to spend Thanksgiving with my dad.  It was at least four years since I've seen my dad so the trip was long overdue. It was a nice, peaceful, relaxing holiday.  The weather was PERFECT!  We hit the beach a few times in the jeep and stopped to take a few pics.  The weather was so nice that we only needed a sweatshirt.  Big difference from the weather back in Pennsylvania.

Tunring 51

I turned 51 years old on October 17th.  Georgie's bday present to me a was a NY Ranger game!  He took me, Jacob & Grace to NYC on 11/5 & 11/6 where we did sightseeing (toured the 9/11 Museum - bucketlist item) and attended the hockey game (club seats - so close to the ice). Below are pics of my bday presents and how we celebrated my special day.

Finally Some Recent Pictures of Georgie!

I have no recent pictures of Georgie so I snatched a few from his Facebook page of his trip to Chicago a few days ago.  I'm sure I will get some more pics during our trip to NYC!

HE'S SO DARN HANDSOME!

Bears Hockey Game

Grace and I went to see the Hershey Bears play the Wilkes-Barre Penguins on Saturday night (October 27th).  Bears won in a shootout - pretty good game!
