A sweet memory of my daddy, Jacob calls from Italy, Happy Birthday Linda, Surprise gift in the mail :)

 I'm starting this on Monday evening but know it won't get done until Tuesday morning.  We're watching "It's a wonderful life" and Ken's on the phone with our oldest son, Bryan 💙

Big news of the weekend is grandson Jacob called me from Italy and we talked for an hour and a half!  Such a great conversation! He will be home for Christmas, but has a very busy schedule! His sweetie, Allissa got them tickets to the Raiders game in Las Vegas the day after Christmas! Then we went next door for Happy Hour. 

Ken got lights up out front Sunday and I did some baking.  Just about out of goodies, but I took care of that!  We had left over enchiladas and coleslaw for dinner that were yummy.  

My sister Linda's birthday was December 4th..Happy Birthday baby sister! 

December 5th 31 years ago we lost my dad unexpectedly..😭 Daddy and I used to eat a bag of peanut clusters easily, especially during the holidays LOL. Yes we did!  Yesterday I made peanut clusters in his memory 💖💖 Of course these are sugar free with Lilly's chips..OMG are they good!

This is how I always remember Daddy💖


Ken's almond flour morning glory muffins...


If you knew my dad he was always happy, never had a bad word to say about anyone, proud to be a Veteran, always smiling and loved his 3 girls and my mom to the moon and back.  Then when grandsons started popping up, he was the proudest grandpa (Popo) ever!! These Daddy's girls still miss him like it was yesterday. 

Monday, Ken worked on more lights outside. I did a little shopping online and made cabbage lasagne for dinner! YUM!

Got the sweetest early birthday present from Christina and family in the mail. I LOVE them!

Once a Marine always a Marine 💙




Ken's got an early dentist appointment this morning (Tuesday) and then I'll meet him in town for breakfast 😋 Not sure what the rest of the day holds, but going way too quickly! Have a great one!
