Monday - December 30

Hi all.....been one week since I did some blogging......we've been having so much fun in Florida at Philip, Annette and Luke's home, along with Ryan, Theresa (Mark's sister) and Mike.    We all enjoyed Luke's 1st Christmas - of course, he was more excited about all the boxes, paper, tags, etc.   
 
Hard to believe Christmas is over and about to ring in 2014.     These game fanatics have been enjoying their marathon of games from morning to late night or sometimes the wee hours of the morning!    Ryan has been part of this "game weekend" for the past 17 years.   Mark and I have joined them for euchre, dominoes, Shanghai  and Tripoli.     The eating has taken on new levels - so much good stuff in the house and just enjoying each and every morsel!

Mark and I have Daisy in her spot about 7 miles from here till Saturday when we'll leave for Marathon.    Got things organized and we'll be ready to roll.   But till then, lots more time to cuddle and enjoy Luke - what a delightful, happy boy he is at 8 months!
 
In between all the games and eating, we gals managed several trips (walking) around the neighborhood with Luke and Mark and I have taken a daily bike ride going further each day.   Tine to get these bods in shape!    Also had lots of fun in the pool and hot tub.
 
Our niece Cory got engaged Christmas Eve to Kyle and are planning an August 16th wedding!    That makes 4 weddings in '14 (2 nieces and 2 nephews all on Mark's side).    Yeah....love weddings and family gatherings

I am getting oh-so-so close to crawling....

Grandpa and I took Luke for a stroll early this morning and let the others sleep in....

Last night for all of us together in the hot tub....FUN week!
