Cowboy Christmas

Today we took Gary to a Christmas party sponsored by the special needs bus drivers and the professional assistants who help the kids who ride the bus to school. the theme was Cowboy Christmas and this was the 14th year that the drivers have held this party for the kids. Gary's Grandpa Rhino, Grandma Rosemary, and Uncle Tom met us at the party where Gary played games, ate a turkey dinner, saw Santa, and got a present. He had a great time.

After the party, Gary and I came home and Jennifer went to spend the night in Parker.

Gary and I spent a quiet afternoon here. I did have to set up the outside snow globe again as the wind had unplugged it and pulled up most of the stakes holding it down. In the evening we went out to do a little shopping and also went to Cici's Pizza for dinner. Gary ate six pieces of pizza, three cheese and three cheese and spinach.

We are now at home, both playing on a laptop. I'm surfing the web and Gary is playing a Lego StarWars game.

Only two weeks until Christmas. Good night all.

Christmas is in the air

Gary is very excited these days. He has been able to see Santa twice now and asked for the same thing. He wants Leggo Star Wars III game and on video. Only problem is that the Wii game wont be ready until Feb. 2011. But Santa will find plenty of fun things that will hopefully keep the magic going. Gary has lost another tooth and got a visit from the tooth fairy. He is a huge bundle of excitement these days and doing great at school. The teachers tell me how much they just love Gary. They describ him as very entertaining and life with him is very interesting. I had to laugh, I said that was how every described me. Yep mama's proud. Never a dull moment in our home.

I am amazed every day at how well Harvey and Marcy are doing. Marcy with her early stage of Kindeny Failure and Harvey with Inflamator Bowl Disease. Harvey has medication wich he takes as well as any cat does. Yea that makes life even more interesting. But both of our furry babies are doing well. They still seem to be enjoying their senior years, being brushed several times a day, food, love and even St. Francis to look over them. All the other cats are pampered and playing with the Christmas tree.

I have started to do volunteer work at The Wildlife Experience which is a museum I really enjoy. I read stories to young childern and do puppet shows. I have been working the special events for Christmas too. Lots of fun. I just need a little recovery time sometimes after a long shift. But really enjoy the children.

Love for now

Jennifer
