We got into Boerne Thursday afternoon and it was still daylight! Fortunately it was a good 4 day trip without incident, although long days and arriving after dark. After we got set up we headed over to see Ted's cousin Gloria and her husband John. They are in their brand new home. They were able to select the lot and have a huge corner property and behind them should stay somewhat of a wilderness area. They selected beautiful flooring, countertops etc. They did a great job and have really done a lot in only a month! Gloria made some sandwiches, veggies and chips since they didn't know what time we would get in! We also had a nice visit with their daughter Cheryl and three grand kids.
Yesterday we went to Bass Pro shop to meet California transplants, Pam and Jon. We had lunch and did some shopping. It's cold here and supposed to rain so I got a new raincoat and Ted and I both got some warm gloves! We had a good visit with Pam and Jon!
Can't get my pictures to download this morning so will add them later!
Right after they moved in the new house, Gloria went to Illinois to visit her mom, Wanda, who was not doing well. Wanda passed away yesterday so Gloria and John will leave on Monday for the funeral. Wanda was a sweet, fun woman and Ted and I always enjoyed visiting her these last few years. This is better for her but she will be missed.
Today we are having Christmas Eve dinner at John and Gloria's and Dan and Cheryl and their three kids! Tomorrow will be Christmas dinner at Dan and Cheryl's where there is always lots and lots of food of all kinds! She mentioned prime rib and turkey!
Ted and I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a safe, healthy, happy New Year!..."Ain't Life Grand!"
