AJ's Christmas Program

 

I attended AJ's Christmas program last week.  It was adorable, and AJ did an awesome job.  I have an adorable video but can't get it to download yet.

He is rocking the Sonic hat!

Alexzandrea Sladek, RN

This girl is going to rock as an RN, I am so proud of her, school, work, raising a child and maintaining a household of course with help from Ashton is not easy at all! And she makes all look so easy! The excitement AJ had for her was immeasurable.

It is so nice to sit back and see your child accomplish something they set out to do and make it through all of the obstacles that were placed in front of them and come out on top. 

It was a wonderful ceremony, and I can't wait to see what she does next.  Congratulations, Ali you ROCK!

AJ was the photographer for the evening!  Any photo is not in he probably took it and did a heck of a job!

Poor Roger has not been feeling his best!

Nonnie!

This is my favorite photo!

SHE DID IT!

 

December Already??

 Ahhhh December!  Not my favorite month weather wise, but oh how I love all the Christmas decorations and celebrations.  And of course, the long break from work and having more time with family.  The "kitty" tree is up, and I have added more decorations since this photo, but so far, the cats are leaving it alone for the most part.

I hope you get much needed rest and time with the ones you love.

Goodbye November

 We had a wonderful Thanksgiving break. It was pretty low key and relaxing.  I had Thanksgiving dinner at Monique's, I had a wonderful time, the food was so yummy, and I always enjoy the company.  I was able to see Kynedy also and get some holiday decorations up!   

We spent Sunday celebrating Thanksgiving with Roger's family.  We got to meet sweet Maisie and AJ had a ball playing with Rosie. We had a great time visiting and catching up, so thankful for all of them! Poor Kynedy had the stomach flu and could not attend.

 My favorite photo of the day! Rosie!

Sweet AJ and my beautiful girl, Ali!

Thank you for hosting, Tracy!

Yummy!

Sweet Maisie and Ali!

Easy Sunday

Sunday consisted of recuperating from our shopping trip and working around the house.  I spent most of the morning resting with all of my cats lol! (Missing two in picture)

This beautiful sunset was the end to a wonderful weekend!

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

 

Shopping Day 2024

Saturday was one of my very favorite days of the year!  The girls and I headed out on our annual Holiday shopping in Plainfield.  We had a great time, lots of laughs and a whole lot of goodies! We hit up Target first and then headed to Kohls.  We stopped for lunch and drinks at the Bru Burger (our favorite).  We continued shopping at Perry's Crossing, watched the tree lighting and parade and finished the evening with coffee at Barnes and Nobles. 

Please take a look real close at the photos, the girls were playing with me! Look at their eyes in some of the photos!
