Christmas Party

That brings us up to this weekend. Saturday Dave and I enjoyed ourselves at Noto's for my annual work holiday party. It is always a good time and the food is excellent. Dancing around and getting crazy with co-workers has never really been my thing and I know it is not Dave's thing so we stay for a while and then usually move on to another holiday party. This year the Mayweather Hatton fight was on both of our minds so we ended up at the Hagers new house. we are so excited to have them in Grand Rapids instead of over in Lowell. The house is lovely and it sounds like everything ended up working out with selling their place and stuff like that. We all know how stressful selling in Michigan is right now. So happy to have seen you again on Saturday, Hagers, and Thank you for letting us watch the fight!
Dave and I have Monday off this week, so we have a big day planned....little Home Depot, maybe Bed Bath and Beyond we'll see if we have time, LOL!!!

Happy Birthday Nate!

I did not get any grat pictures of the night but here is Dave and Jud crouched down waiting to spring up and say, "Surprise!" It was for Nate Armstrong's surprise 30th birthday party. His dad also turned 60 so it was an extra special year for those guys!





Good job honey on telling your story about Nate. I thought it was
really funny!

Time for my Baby!

OK I haven't posted any pictures of Noodle on this blog in a while. That doesn't mean I don't have a whole camera full of pictures of this diva dog. I have been posting her pictures at posted@woodtv.com. She has been on the news three times! I'm not sure if the producers have figured it out yet but I love it when I am doing a show and she pops up right before we go to break. This is santa poodle and we walked in the Grand Rapids Santa parade together and gave out t-shirts. We loved it.
This is me and Sue at the Grand Rapids parade.












A few of us from work decorated the skylink truck for the Holland parade. It was cold on top of that truck!







The truck looked good when we were done. I shouls say that is dedication to your job. I think I need a promotion, LOL!

Owen's Baptism

Our nephew Owen got baptised and he was so good. He did not even cry. Actually he tried to play in the water bowl as the priest was blessing him. He is such a happy baby and Marissa told me the other day that he took his first steps. It is hard to believe that he is going to be one in just a short time. I believe he was born about a week before my wedding. Well, here are a few cute pictures.

Marissa and Owen stopped over the other day and Dave took these pictures because I was not home from work yet. I get bummed when I miss Owen's visits so i am so glad when Dave has a few pictures for me when I get home.

We love you Owen! Come over anytime.

I"m Sorry Mrs. Jackson, we are for real!

Tom's sister Jackie got married on Nov. 2 and the sweetest flower girl let me take this awesome picture...thanks Ruby I love this picture!




The wedding really kicked into gear when the dancing started. Everyone was having a great time. Congratulations to the Jacksons!

Chicago Baby!

Sorry I have been slacking in my posts. Late October the girls and I went to Chicago to do a little "shopping". We did not get very much shopping done. More partying and having fun. Thanks for the great time, Andrea, Kelly and Jessica, we should do it every year!
