Jeff & I received several jigsaw puzzles for Christmas – one of our favorite cold weather activities – and this past weekend we got the first one put together. It was the only 500 piece one we received – we worked it first before we moved onto the larger ones. Fun, peaceful way to spend the day.
Last Saturday we were in Fort Mill to watch Adam participate in the middle school wrestling tournament. It lasted all day, & we stayed several hours, as long as Adam was wrestling. It was a double elimination tournament, and Adam won two matches and lost two, so we headed to Charlie’s basketball game after that. Here are a couple of pictures I got during the day – one as he was waiting for his match to be called, and the other as one of the rounds was just starting. This is the only kind of action picture I can ever get. Once the wrestling action starts in earnest I get too excited to take pix 🙂
One very exciting thing that happened for me last month was that I won the big prize package that my niece Diane (nephew Nathan’s wife) was giving away as part of the Norwex cleaning supplies company that she is a part of now. To be perfectly honest, when I told my other niece Lesley that I’d won this, and how many great things I got, she said, Do you really clean that much? 🙂 She knows me so well. Anyway, Addie wanted to be here with me when I opened the boxes, so I had to wait until that fit in our schedule around the holiday, and then we all had a fun week passing around a stomach virus, but here it is. We had a fun time going through everything – and then we went out to eat lunch to celebrate 🙂
Last Tuesday was such a fun day. I picked up the grand girls – Mallory, Clara, & then June – and we headed to Matthews to meet Mint Hill Smiths for lunch. It was Diane with their four children, and we had the best time. I got to sit next to 7-year-old Daniel, and he was such a fun dining companion.
He also had great fun turning around & talking to Mallory about the new Spiderman movie and Ronald Acuna, their favorite Brave. Such a fun day.
