Lunch with the Little Hale's

I enjoyed having lunch today with Caitlin, Carter and Christina. Caitlin called this morning to ask if I would like to join them. She sounded so big. (The grandkids are just growing too fast!) We went to Firehouse in Providence. It is a tradition for them to have pizza at Firehouse every Tuesday. I went over to their house before going to lunch and Cait wanted to have her picture taken in front of the Christmas tree. It's a really good looking tree and definitely ONE of the cutest grandaughters ever!

Thanks for the invitation and the fun lunch, Cait and Carter!

Christmas is Coming!!

Mike decided that this was the weekend to do the Christmas decorating if I was wanting it done. Kind of "now or never". When he first began he did so a little begrudgingly but as our Saturday progressed he really got into it! You have to know Mike to realize what a task Christmas is for him. He is one of the best friends to Mr. Scrooge that I know! But this year he really came through. We did much more decorating this year than we have done since he decided to decorate a few years ago after my insisting on stringing a "few" lights. But instead of putting the lights on the house he put them on the horse barn, the round pen and part of the pasture! Not exactly what I had in mind! However, he really put his heart into it this year! Thanks, Sweetheart! You have "lit up" my Christmas!
