It has been a great few weeks!  Basketball season
has started for my daughter, Emily.

 She is a very competitive player and gives it her all. After practice, she always love to go to Subway....her favorite place to eat!!  
     Every year I am invited to go on a ladies shopping trip with my sister who lives several hours away.  My other sister and my Mom goes as well.  It is such a fun time and I look forward to it so much!  I'm not always able to go but I did this year!  It's so nice for us all to be together!

We always have tons of fun, laughs and memories.  

 Anyway, I came across this picture of my grandchildr and I just had to share!  They were recently in a wedding and they are just the most adorable kids ever!!

I just love them!

Don't forget that November is Diabetes awareness month!

Get yourself tested is you think you are having symptoms, eat healthy and exercise!  My diabetes is under control and I couldn't be more thankful!!

I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.  Philippians 4:13

I had a lovely weekend!  Mom, Sheri and I went to my sister, Teri's house to surprise her for her Birthday!  I was a little skeptical but we pulled it off, Thanks to her husband Jason!  We surprised her one at a time as she went to lunch at MiCasitas.  First Mom walked in and then me, and lastly Sheri!  Once she got over the shock of all of us being there.....We had a fabulous lunch!  Her daughter, Hallie, joined us!  When we were about to leave, the servers sang Happy Birthday to her and gave her the Birthday Sombrero and Fried ice cream!  

    The rest of the day was spent shopping, giving her gifts, and eating wonderful Italian for supper at  a place I think was called Alfonsos.  The Alfredo was fabulous! 

               Teri loved all her gifts but I think her favorite was a beautiful vintage plaque that I recently purchased for her.    I've never seen her so excited....she even had tears of joy!    We got to see her cute little dog named boy..

   Saturday,  Teri had to play and sing for a wedding, so the rest of us went to a little shop in her town called Fry's.  I LOVE this shop and I shop there every chance I get!   We all got a lot of nice things there.   Then Pizza Hut for lunch, and shopping at the mall in Terra Haute.                          

                                                  
  After hours of shopping and lots of good bargains, we went to McKinleys .....very good food, great salads, and desserts!  I loved the decorations....

    Sunday Morning, Mom, Sheri and I started for home.  On the way, We stopped in Tuscola at Amishland.  Here is the link to there facebook page..... http://www.facebook.com/pages/Amishland-Big-Red-Barn/211525738871515
    We had such a nice time!  It was also nice to come home and have my family waiting for me!  I am truly blessed!
