Good evening all,

Long day as well.  Went to 9 AM Mass.  Drove to sister's for lunch.  Drove one daughter to other duaghter's house so somebody else could take her the rest of the way home.  Gave the grandkids their Easter stuff.  Made it home before the snow hit.  I hope everyone has a good day.

Keep on training,

Evening all!

Happy Easter!

Long day today. Started with church and then ran home to get ready for the family to come over. Fired up the grill and cooked up lotsa pounds of brats, dawgs, and chicken. Nieces brought sides, cakes and a chocolate pie. Our adult children hid Easter eggs for the nieces young ones and the young ones went on the offensive with confetti eggs. Confetti egg battle ended up in the front yard and street. Colored egg shells and confetti everywhere - gave me an idea of how to decorate for Christmas! Kids created a baseball game using a tennis ball, a T ball bat and incorporating the swimming pool as a moat between the pitcher and home plate. That was interesting/fun. 

Everyone left about 5 - whew - but a good day!

Buckeye - Thumbs Up

Regards, Roy

Happy Easter to everyone!

I was feeling really down when I heard the weather forcastor say it was to snow tonight and the roads would be slippery during rush hour.  Then Idea I realized I'm retired and will not be driving in the slush tomorrow. Yeah

Aloha and 'hoppy' Easter! Cloudy and cold here too. Coldest Easter in years. The ladies insist it is spring and they dress accordingly. I do not as it is only 24 degrees.

I thought of Buckeye and his replacement every time we crossed a bridge or went through a tunnel on the 1,400 miles of interstates we just finished driving on our journey east and back. I'll be standing by the track waving as his train rolls through Chicago in a few months.

Rob, we had a Dodge Caravan - the extended one - when our kids were little. We put a zillion miles on it and used it go everywhere and carry everything. 

Praying for your mom, Banks

Happy Easter,

 Started out sunny and cold, now cloudy and coldest Easter in ten years here.

 So SJ, if the ladies and girls get dressed up for Easter today you won’t know it because they will be under wraps.  Laugh

Banks, prayers for your mom. Angel

A blessed Easter to all. He has risen.

Congrats to Da Chief, he stayed awake till 11 last night.

Cloudy and 40 today. Remember when the ladies and girls got all dressed up for church on Easter Sunday?

HAPPY EASTER

Been a long week. Spent Wednesday evening in the ER with mom. Got home about 130 AM. She's dehydrated again. Got back to the home Thursday evening.

Frying Fish and church services shot the rest of the week. We served 5214 people over the 7 Friday's for an average of 744. It gets kinda hectic sometimes but it's a big fundraiser for our school.

The daughter hosted the family for Easter last evening. Ham and an egg hunt was enjoyed by all.

Mrs & I went to 7AM mass going to join Mom for lunch at the home later.

Buckeye,.... welcome to the retired life. Hope it's long and happy.

Best move on.

 

Prayers for those I in need

Happy Easter All!!

GO BLUE!!! On to the championship. My Wolverines will definitely have their work cut out for them against Villanova.

Not much on the go today. Usual Easter - church, brunch with the in laws and watch baseball. Having supper with my folks tomorrow.

Spank - Nice haul! Did I see a bottle of The Macallan hiding in the back? My offer to "help" out still stands........ Big Smile

Have a good one and prayers.

Another year has passed.  If you do a new pot from now on, please include the years.  Had to look it up.  Thanks
