Good morning Ladies ! January is moving along at pace Today it is cloudy outside and the temperatures have dropped in the last day or so. Right now it is 23f . You definitely need a coat if you go out and about! It can always be a tough month but we are getting through it ! 
Last weekend was rally nice and relaxing. Our daughter did have some friends over for a slumber party Saturday night, they were not too loud (too!) Now that she has a basement bedroom they like to come and stay over. On Sunday I went t o early church . In the afternoon we watched the vikings football game . Just before that I brought one of our sons to urgent care with sore ear/jaw. It turned out to be an external ear infection and he was given drops to take. The game went good for the most part but the vikings ended up losing in the last few minutes. That is their last game until September ! We got ready for the week and bedtime came quick.
On Monday evening we met my in-laws for dinner. They were in town as they were flying out early on Tuesday morning to go to Tampa Florida . They were going on a cruise! ( I’m not jealous.. I keep telling myself!)The cruise takes them to Dominican Republic, Virgin Islands, Aruba and Grand Cayman Islands. They are right now travelling to Aruba . They return to Tampa next Saturday !
On Tuesday night Our eldest son performed with his school choir at the high school Auditorium. They did very well assisted by their musical director. Wednesday they had Church class, the first of the new year. Thursday was a quiet evening for us all, phew ! Yesterday evening I picked our daughter up at home and brought her to the neighboring parish as they went to a retreat for their upcoming sacrament of Confirmation. They are staying at the retreat center Until Sunday morning . Confirmation is February 4th. Today we got some new island stools . These ones have backs on them which is nice. In the evening we went to Church bingo, and 2 of ours sons won games and prizes !!

Have a great week !! With love, Terri xo.

Hi Terri! It’s good to have time to relax, especially when you have a big family! I’m relaxing today after a busy week. How nice your in-laws are going on a cruise. Perhaps you’ll go someday. I’ve never been either, perhps someday. lol
The dress looks nice on the model, a rather nostalgic style but not one I would wear. It looks like something a child would wear in the olden days. 🙂

It is so important to find time to relax Carmen , mentally and physically ! I do cherish it. It was nice that the in-laws went on the cruise. The photos they sent back were gorgeous! I hope you get to go on one too! You are totally right about the dress ! I dont think I would wear it either , but just something pretty to look at . Have a great day, thanks for visiting, Terri xo.

I love this dress! – an high 10! And confirmation; I remember mine! I chose St Agatha as my sponsor as I wanted to be a nurse then. So my confirmation name is Kathleen Alice Agatha G.. lol Does your daughters have her name picked out? Lovely post! Sorry for the Vikings though.. reminds me of a joke I heard. A little boy is in his fathers arms and both father and son are looking anxious. The son asks his dad what is the Super Bowl? The dad looks at his son sadly and says I don’t know son, we’re Vikings!

Thanks so much for the compliments and rating on the dress Kate! It would be perfect for spring. Confirmation will be coming up pretty soon. I love the name Saint Agatha. It’s okay about the Vikings I am not really a fan like the rest of my family! That is a good joke! Thanks so much for visiting Kate, take care,Terri xo.
