A Fantastic Surprise!

Jim & I, on Monday, November 26, 2007, will celebrate our 25 wedding anniversary. This weekend has been one of great surprises. The first surprise and probably the biggest of my life was expecting to pick up 4 lobsters from my little sister, Leah, who lives in California. We expected to pick them up at the airport.

This is what we thought we were picking up. It turned out to be this:

For those of you who don't know, this is my only son, who has been away at college.
He is 21, his name is Jonah! He really surprised us on Thanksgiving! It was such an awesome surprise!

What an awesome trip!

I really missed blogging, but I had a great vacation. I have discovered that T.G.I. Fridays is an awesome restaurant. The food is flavorful, the service is great. I had crispy fried green beans in Ranch Wassabe sauce, they tasted great both ways. I had Argentinean rubbed flat iron steak, it was delicious and so moist. I also had the Oreo Chocolate Cake for dessert. They have a great special right now, 3 choices for $12.99. I have only eaten their twice, but the food has been fantastic both times. The only thing I don't like is the loud music! The Amtrak train ride was awesome. I got to see the beautiful fall foliage in Wisconsin & Minnesota! The train is a great way to go. It is good to get home! I had a great time seeing my son and spending time with him!

Out of blogging World!

I am excited about my trip, but a little sad, also. Tomorrow, Monday, October 15, I am taking a train to Chicago. I will get there on Tuesday around 4 p.m. I will take a bus to another train station, and a train to Hammond, Indiana. I will be gone until Sunday, October 21. I am going to a great ladies conference, at the First Baptist Church in Hammond. I have gone about 3 times or more. http://www.christianwomanhood.org/. This has more information about the conference. I get to see my only son, Jonah, because the college and church are connected. I am excited about the trip. I will miss blogging, so sad. I really love blogging. Anyway, keep posting, when I get back, I will read all the wonderful posts. I am sure that I will have a great time! I can't wait!
