Celebrate the Small Things....


Friday is here again. That means we can celebrate little things and bigger ones! Yay for us.
Be sure to hop over to LexaCain.blogspot.com to check on what everyone's up to!
Here's what we're celebrating this week:

  • A Skype chat with my Mom. She was excited about the fact she was going on a river boat this week. :)
  • One of  our sons went to Chicago with his friends. They had fun and arrived home safely.
  • Rostig, our new family member has been taking trips around town. We seem to be warming up to him. He only has one serious design flaw: No cup holders!! What happens when you need a coffee break? We may only take short trips with him. My husband is a big coffee fan and has trouble passing Dunkin' Donuts! :)
  • If any of you haven't voted and would like to, please check out my essay here:
  • I know I've posted this link before, but just want to make sure new visitors can vote for my essay if they want. Voting ends on Nov. 10 so we're getting close to the home stretch. Thank you to all of you who've voted. D You're efforts are much appreciated.

  5. No cup holders could be a serious problem! Glad the car is going well otherwise and good to hear the family are all well.

    You left a very nice comment on my website (you mentioned your son and the Navy) and in trying to respond to you, I managed to delete it, which just shows it's a Friday. Thank you for the coment - I was delighted to see it and pleased you stopped by. ...Now back to enjoying your blog.

    1. All kinds of weird things can happen on Fridays Diana. No worries. Besides, Halloween might have hexed something! D I'm glad I stopped by too. Yes, one of our sons was in the Navy and traveled to lots of different countries. Happy weekend and Happy Halloween!
