CHRISTMAS

My Christmas was a quite different them in years past..It just wasn't Christmas without Wade and Deane and my bother Pete.. I had to work Christmas Eve and then I went over to Bill and Teresa's for dinner .. It was nice just like old times..Randy was there and it was good to see him and Kim and Claycee.. I got tickled at Claycee he wanted to shake my hand instead of giving me a hug i told him that was old new.. Hugs from now on..Of course Tatum ,Troy and Erin was there.
Then I went over Christmas Day and I went out to Troy's for the weekend. Troy drove my truck and I rode with Erin and Tatum..
I took Tatum's presents out there so she can open them up..She was so tired when we got there so she opened them up the next day. I got her a Dora Tent she had a ball with it.. Troy and Erin went out Saturday night and Tatum and I stayed home and watched Dora movies.. I know the Dora and the snow princess's by heart.. :O).
Erin go me a neat present . Movies from nextflix.. I now can watch movies while Gordon watches basketball.. I hate basketball.. So thanks Erin and Troy now i can watch movies instead of being bored for the basketball season..

Thankgiving Day

Well this is the third time I've tried to put one my blog.. So here i go again.
Thankgiving Day i got up around 615 and headed out to Troy's and Erin's for Thanksgiving. Thank goodness the weather was good.
When i got there Bill and Teresa was there and we visited while Erin was cooking .We visited for awhile and then Erin came in and told us that her oven quit .So we had to put the turkey on the grill to finish cooking and we did the rest of the dinner in toaster oven and the microwave.. Erin's dinner was wonderful.. My hat goes off to Erin... While we was helping Erin in the kitchen i told Teresa it was like old time. Everyone pitching in and helping in the kitchen, and she agreed.
Bill was is funny self but you could tell he was hurting.. Bill and Teresa left that afternoon. We tried to get them to stay the night but bill was hurting.I tried to put him on guilt trip like he used to do with me when i wanted to go home.. but it didn't work.. I told him i had to beg my boss to let me come in late on Friday .... But they left anyway...
I stayed the night and left the next day ..
Then i got a phone call from Andy Friday afternoon .Telling me that Wade my bother in law passed away Friday morning.. I was so in shock of it Gordon had to come in and get me. I never though that Wade would be gone so fast.. I think this was the hardest time of them all ..Cause he went so fast.
Andy said that he had a massive stroke. But now he is with Deane and they are very happy..
Im going to miss him .. He was like a dad to me.
The funeral was Tuesday and there was alot of people there.. Im so glad that Troy and Erin and Tatum was there. . Troy has been here for me these few years of the losses i have had. I know that BJ and Delana would be here too if they lived closer. I just want you guys to remember that Wade and Deane love you guys a bunch. Wade always asked about you guys. And he enjoyed the pics of the Jayce Lana and Tatum. He will be missed..
I spent alot of time with Andy and he's alot like his dad in many ways , but in some of his looks is like BJ. Did you know you had Twin..BJ????
Well im going to see if i can post this..
