Blessings

 We are blessed with a great family.  Those who could come came to wish Far Guy a Happy Birthday.  We ate lunch and then an early supper.  Every one was here except for our oldest daughter Trica, youngest Grandson Adam, Paige’s husband Cole and Noah’s wife Hanna.

  

The Great Grands made birthday cards!

Fun to see and hug everyone!

 Happy Birthday Far Guy!   You have had a tough year but you have survived to celebrate another birthday here with me!  I am thankful for the Doctors and Nurses that helped you get through the year. 


AND Sadie she helped you too!

Happy Valentine's Day!

 Hope you all have a wonderful Valentines's Day spent with those you love!


I sent bags with heart shaped boxes of candy and other treats for the Great Grandchildren.  Their Valentine boxes went to their Daycare, at school everyone makes their own Valentine boxes. 

Minnesota weather on Friday: Partly cloudy  High was 37F or 3C  the Low was 25 or -3C eh!  

We ventured out to return an item to wally world and to pick up the last of the snapshots I ordered for the Photo Album Project for 2026!

Supper was no cooking only warming up leftovers!

Nice day

 We had a nice sunny day here..just about half the air temperature of Belize.


Jen sent this photo from the resort in Belize.

Thursday Far Guy had his weekly infusion, I went to Walmart Pickup, Aldi and Hobby Lobby and still waited for him in the parking lot.  All four medical appointments are done for the week...Friday is our day off! Next week we have four appointments...mostly me for a change of pace.  Taking turns I guess.

I am tweeking the last of the photographs to be printed for the photo albums I have been working on...I can see the end in sight! 

Happy Birthday today to our nieces Katie and Bethany!

The eyes have it

 Cats...or Cataracts, Far Guy has them and surgeries have been scheduled.  He is a bit bummed out that one appointment yielded five more appointments.  Can't say I blame him but I know he will be happier when he can see clearly again!

We had lunch with my other baby brother and she who sees robins first as they were passing through town to visit Katie for her upcoming 44th birthday in Western North Dakota. Happy Birthday Katie!

Minnesota weather: High 30F or -1C Low was 21F or -6C. Partly cloudy day. 


3D print of a cat for Cee Cee's Valentine box. I painted the eyes and put a bit of color on the nose and the inside of the ears.  Andy will put it all together..the cat will be peeking out of a cardboard box. It is amazing what that 3D printer can do!

Here is the completed Valentine box. The heart is also a 3 D print.
