Sundae Nooz

Well, hello all and to all a gud nite.
It's getting to that time of the year when Santa knows if you've been naughty or nice.
It's also that time of the year when it's getting harder and harder to find the time to BLOG. I miss you guys and your comments and pictures. But I know that I'll be seeing some of you sooner and definitely later this month.
Snowy here and cold, lake effect snow, 18-22 degrees, a white Christmas for sure.
Chaz and family-
Ray was most excited to tell me about his winning a limo ride with 3 other St Francis boys for top effort in sales. He and Lily and Chaz went for a photo shoot at a nearby "castle" and there were some scarey things/people there. Ray's class has been invited by Kings Island to "drop in" to the inauguration of their new water park/hotel next spring? One of the his classmates dad moved his family to Ohio to build it and had some influence on who would be first. Lily big nooz was how much fun she and Sandra and Dad had going bowling. She really liked it.
CC and Charles-
Her big nooz was the successful wine and cheese party she and Charles hosted for the Young Adult Catholic group from her church on Sat night. It was a big winner with folks staying until midnight (7-9). She used all their wine glasses, baked brie, fondue, portwine cheeseballs, candles and ribbons on the the food table. Our own Martha Stewart - yay! She still had a glow for work the next day at 8:00 :-( for Belks. They are all ready for the big wedding this weekend in Chicago leaving Thursday. Charles asked Tomma for a warm coat to wear "up north".
We are sharing a suite with them for Sat night. It 's a fancy wedding with the MOB changing from her wedding outfit to a reception outfit. We'll keep you in photos next week.
Lisa
Caught her on the way back from bowling Sunday night without Brian who was home sick with the flu. She had gotten them tickets for the Sat show of Manheim Steamroller and they had to leave before the end - just feeling too bad. She did really well in bowling. Her average is 108 and she threw 2 more games 134 and 135? Must be the pink shoes. She is going to get the C tree on Tuesday her last day off on a 7 day rotation. Sales are down at Gap nationwide. Brady wants her to go to work at Dicks ( a sporting goods shop).
Kelly and Jay
Tomma called her on the way to the farm on Sat morning. She had already finished her run. Jay had gotten her slip-on spikes for her running shoes and they worked really well . But she emailed her marathon running buddies that Sunday was off due to the snow and cold. Kelly, ask Chaz about his allergies. Kelly also reported that she and Maria and Chaz had a joint video chat last week on their Macs - cool.
Momma and Tomma
Boy, the kitchen room at the farm is really shaping up. I'm so proud of the work Tom has put into the drywall ceiling, priming and painting. It makes the room seems so much bigger, of course there is no furniture in it. Next big job is buying and varnishing the knotty pine slats before putting those up on the walls.
Check out Tom Cronley's blog for pictures of a Mississippi thanksgiving and baptism. Click on the word- pictures- and it will take you to a Kodak gallery of the Cronley weekend. Also, he mentioned a "Wiki" so I clicked on that and it is a summary of everyone's (Joe Cronleys)address, phone number, email address, birthday, anniversary and a spot for short notes. Very nice. So if you need to get in touch with them, that's the place. Also Happy Anniversary to Patty and Luke. I remember that date as it was Uncle Joe's birthday 12/2.
Luff ewe all and to all a gud n-eye-tah.
