FLorida in January

As told by Jims brother Tim, this is a must do shot when  coming to Orlando, here we are at Disney Spring, a very fun out door mall, We celebrated Ritas birthday. She really saved the day by making a phone call on Jims phone at just the right time that our lyft driver was in her car wonderinf what to do with an extra cell phone!! so we got Jims cell phone back  and had a great tine sharing family fun and food


REALLY exciting for me was having our oldest grandson from Derek be our Disney trip guide AND see him run 48 miles in the 5k, 10k,, 1/2 and full marathon all around the park. One event each day, llwhich Derek ,Missy and Jake all completed, AND they got to see the park while doing it!!
here we are getting ready for the roller coaster ride, which both JIm and I felt more veritgo after, Jim even got a bag to get sick in after, But it did have Chris Prat and the cute raccon. We wont be doing that one ever again !!

Epcot.. England, LOVED

here is our fav ride, I took my walker for safety and to get in lines faster! and carry all our coats and food. It turned out to be a little cold in the mornings which made it great for the runners

Animal Kingdon! so now I dont have to go to Africa!

Missy and Layla

Izaak and his green buddie

of course we loved Europe where Jim served his mission

ENDING 2024

We are looking forward to a new year, a fresh start, a healthy additude in mind, body and spirit AND we pray for you our  family and friends also get off to a great new year.

this is our ANNUAL CHRISTmas card which took some qucik moving to finally get it off. The photo was a selfie at Val's and it was the one that Jim liked the best, The poem starting with Dashing through the year came to my mind while trying to get myself back to walking  and certainly not dashing. I entered the holiday season without alot of hope but as each day came more and more tiny little miracles happened. We got to see A Christmas  Carol when Layla nd Missy could not go as she was recoperating from her surgery. ANd then the hockey game worked out as everyone had a fun friend to share it with. We had delicous food at Larkins, and so much more yumm food that now we need to focus more no protein ans less about treats

Here we are celebrating with Jan and Jaron and 3 of our 4 great grands!! woohoo!
