I DID; I DID NOT

I DID have my appendix out on the day I was suppose to have my mammogram,

one day short of Tom's 6 week surgery follow up

(Jen took him & he got another 6 weeks off from work

and the ok to lift up to a 25 pound grandchild!)

and 3 days before a week end get away with all the kids and grandkids.I DID read stories and hold babies I DID sit in the van for 3 and a half hours with three grandchildren

and a pregnant daughter driven by a

man driving for the first time

in 6 weeks out of major back surgeryI DID NOT eat anything without it tasting like

a salty metal can.Not that I would eat

Jen's pregnant lady snack anyway.

No wonder she threw up in the back

of the van on the way there.

I DID enjoy my grandsons sharing and enjoying a snack together.I DID NOT go in the hot tub with Ella, one of our favorite vacation things to do

but Aunt Chel was a great stand in!
I DID enjoy spending time with these beautiful babies!I DID NOT roll around the floor with the grandkids
I DID NOT get to ride in the bumper cars or go carts but Ella & Uncle Shawn sure did have fun. I DID get to start the Christmas season with a visit by Santa (Uncle Chuckles).
Look at Jack trying to see his sleigh.
