Canada weekend

This past weekend Tom and I went to Canada to see our friends Mike and Sandy. Their son and his girlfriend are having a baby and they had a co-ed baby shower with an 80's theme (they were both born in the 80's). A side from being in awful pain because of a tooth, we had a great time. Mike and Melissa got many nice things. And Saturday night after everyone left Mike, Sandy, Tom and I had a lot of fun Wii Bowling!! Now Tom and I want one. Scout had a good time and he was loved by all, of course!

So, yesterday I had to have a root canal done. My appointment was at 2:30 and three hours later I was out of there and on my way home. But at least he got it finished in one setting and I don't have to go back. And this is what it feels like not to be in pain, WOW!!! What a difference. Right now my mouth aches, but I'm sure that is just from him drilling down into the canals. I just hope this is it for dental work, it seems like I live at the dentist lately, LOL!

That's it from here, have a good week!

Why do the weekends go so fast? Here it is Saturday already! At least I have Monday off. It won't be much fun because I have to go to the dentist, yuck! I have to have two crowns put on and Monday is the first of four appointments. And I really, really hate going to the dentist. There are worse things, but that ranks right up there!
Have a good weekend!

donate life

I hope everyone who reads this have signed an organ donor card. Our grandson, Jake, passed away on August 16th 2007. Holly and Andy donated his organs and because of this, a little boy in Iowa has his heart. Beckham is doing well and is now almost 1 1/2 years old and a beautiful little boy. His family has welcomed us into their hearts and we have been able to watch his progress through their blog. It gives us some comfort to know that although we lost our little Jake, something good came from his death. We are so proud of Holly and Andy for the wonderful gift they gave, for giving hope and life to a family that needed it so badly. If you haven't already check the back of your drivers liscence and gone on line to donate life, please do so. Some day you may be rewarded with the gift of life yourself.

Where is the warm weather?

I am looking forward to spring! It is going to be really cold tomorrow, Friday and into the weekend. Will it ever stop?! I need some warm weather, along with everyone else. Oh to see spring flowers. And sunshine that brings warmth. I guess it will get here in time.

At least we are getting a little break. The weekend of the 24th we are going to Canada to Mike and Sandy's for Melissa's baby shower. It will be good to see all of our friends up there.

Tom and Crystal
