Heartwarming

When Rob went off to work in December I was off to start a long term sub job. We were both off to working again and well it was exciting to be working yet having just said goodbye it's always an adjustment.

My little surprise came one morning when I opened the cupboard in our bathroom. There was a card for me from Rob. I had a feeling he had bought a card when we were at the store together but every place I looked around the house I couldn't find it.....(yes I was looking!!) I had not looked in the cupboard.

Nothing like sweet words written in ink by your Sweetheart to warm your heart and start your day. I brought the card with me to school and read it right before students came in to me. He had written exactly what I need.

Roossinck Christmas Take 1

We headed to Michigan for an early Christmas because Rob was to work over Christmas. The weather was no problem for travel this time, which was a blessing for me and Rob. :)

Saturday was our "Christmas Day." Dad and Mom's tree has ornaments with all of their children's names.

Maria's Christmas present being installed!!

Oh yes! That is me, and I know how to use it!

Everyone got involved!

Looks WONDERFUL!

Back to Mom & Dad's for dinner, mmmmm Christmas Ham!

I absolutely LOVE sweet potato casserole, mmmm I can almost taste it right now.

We had A LOT of FUN playing games!!! Especially many different versions of UNO. We also were able to visit some dear friends as well. (I'm not sure why my camera didn't have picture.) I miss my goofy friends!

We made a little pit stop to the Roossinck's Orchard as well as Eric & Liz's house.
REAL APPLE!

MICHIGAN STYLE- from Roossinck's Orchard. It was SOOOOO GOOD!
What a WONDERFUL trip it was.....

I must also say it was a lot of fun to drive together. Being stick in a car together for 10:30 hours, nothing to do but drive and chat, priceless.

Thank you Dad, Mom, and Maria for having early Christmas with us. It was a special time.
