This month I went to Texas to go to my Household and Pals. My first cease was to go to my brother (Tim) and sister (Vera). My brother has been sick, which is without doubt one of the causes I went to go to. The primary three photos are at Tim’s place, the second group is Tim and Vera getting pedicures – they each liked it (Vera even fell asleep). The following line is our goodbye photographs. BTW I additionally gave them some fused glass items (1st is Tim’s & 2nd is Vera’s – she already has a number of hearts), they each appreciated their fused glass dishes. Tim even put his up with all of his different favourite issues.

BTW after I left Tim & Vera, my sister (Laurie) and brother (Fred) visited them as nicely. All of us love our huge brother and hope he feels higher quickly.

Subsequent I visited my Aunt Shirley. Once I lived in Texas 20 years in the past she and I obtained fairly shut. We had a beautiful time (sorry about my horrible grin), speaking about previous instances, how she met my Uncle Carl, we checked out previous photos, and a lot extra. She’s an unimaginable girl. BTW they’re those that launched me to Beverly Doolittle; prime row are in my home (all given to my by Shirley & Carl) and the underside row is in Shirley’s home (discover any similarities?). BTW I gave Aunt Shirley a fused glass magnet too, however forgot to take an image of it.

Subsequent I met a cousin (Shirley & Carl’s daughter) Marleen, she and I’ve develop into shut on Fb and he or she made me a quilt (beneath) and I made her some glass items (beneath). I stay up for attending to know her higher. I invited each Aunt Shirley and Marleen to Colorado, I hope they each come.

Then I met my two BFFs (Iris and Lela) in Fredericksburg. Iris and I met virtually 20 yrs in the past and Lela and I met in 2008. They’re each unimaginable girls and each clearly are Air Power Veterans. Iris moved to TX a couple of years in the past and we talked about visiting since she left and at last made it. We had an absolute blast. First we didn’t understand it after we booked the Air BNB nevertheless it was Octoberfest. So Lela (BTW there’s nothing this gifted girl can’t do) made us all attire! Aren’t they fabulous! We liked carrying them.

We liked the Air BNB, Iris booked it and it was in strolling distance from city. The primary evening we stayed up till midnight speaking. I so love these superb girls.
