Been A While

Yes it has been way too long since I last posted.  A lot has happened in our families life.  Don't recall if I wrote about our first great grand child, born in October than a few weeks ago our second great grand was born in Minnesota.  So now we have two great grand daughters. 

Our daughter-in-law had her liver transplant, it was fine until a few days later she developed a blood clot in an artery.  She than had to have another liver transplant.  This was a few weeks ago and she has finally, today in fact had the last tube removed from her body.  Actually this last tube was a tube in her neck and she could not talk.  We talked to her today on the phone and it was good to hear her voice.  We had not seen her since we visited her in the hospital on Christmas Day. 

Yesterday, Sunday the 30th of December we had our family Christmas at our house.  Yes it was loud but it was also a great time.  Bill could not attend as he was staying overnight and then spending the day with Lori in the Hospital.  Kurt and Mark drove down from South Dakota with their 4 dogs.  Mark also brought me a 12 pack of Alaska beer. The dogs remained in their truck except for a few runs in our fenced in area of our backyard.  It was good to have everyone over.  Our granddaughter from Minnesota and her hubby and daughter could not make the trip either but she phoned and her presence in this manner was a pleasant treat for all of the family.

Well it is very late in fact I just missed the New Year, guess I was too interested in thinking about this post to give the New Year much thought.

Well  "HAPPY NEW YEAR" to all who stumble onto this page of my life.  Take it cool.
