Betty I am so happy Bernie got to settle his insurance claim! A great Christmas present indeed!!

Look at all of you boys having a ball with all of those presents! I remember when I was a kid my family used to do the same thing at Christmas, but since grandparents are gone, dad's sister is gone, we've all moved out of CA and gone our separate ways, we don't have the big gatherings anymore. Oh well.

Let's see, we got a $50.00 gift certificate from my mom and Lynn to Olive Garden, $20.00 gift certificate to Chili's from Dave's childhood friend Greg and his wife, I got Dave a trailer ramp kit, he got me a Burr Coffee Grinder, and I bought us a kit for the Wii that has the steering wheel, tennis racket, golf club, and baseball bat, plus a NASCAR Cart racing game. We still haven't received our gifts from my dad and his girlfriend, not sure what's going on with that because they mailed them from Joplin Missouri 9 days ago and it only takes 3 days to get mail back and forth, but Dad said he's going to go to the PO today (It'll be Monday) and see what's going on.

Yesterday we went to Dave's Aunt Eller's house, sat and watched TV and had some good laughs. Dave's dad and step-mom heater went out in their house (they just live 2 blocks from Eller,) so Dave's step-mom was at Eller's and his dad went to work. We stayed there for probably 3 hours then came back home. Every time I go over there I feel like I'm entering a whole new demention of the world LOL

Looook what I got done yesterday!
