The Bunch Go See A Christmas Story Live


 Ever since A Christmas Story Musical came out on TV several years ago, we always watch it every Christmas. This year Bass Hall was performing it for a weekend and A bought us all tickets to go and see it! Unfortunately, she was still crazy sick and really didn't get to thoroughly enjoy it, but the rest of us had a fabulous time! We were all laughing and just really enjoying our day. We also wandered around Sundance square and took pictures with all the Christmas decor. I will say their large Christmas tree looked pretty sad. It was very sparse and looked liked it died a couple of months ago. However, the ornaments and lights were pretty.

Seeing all the festive decor really puts you in the Christmas spirit! I love Christmas!!

Someone was letting their kids play in the water! It was pretty cold!! The tree didn't look too bad from a far.

The seats in the balcony were nice. Honestly, I think I like sitting in the balcony better than on the floor. You can see more and the restroom is easier to get to so you miss the crazy lines.

As you can see, the tree up close was very sparse and sad.

It's tradition.

A managed to take me down with her and I was pretty ill this week too, but thankfully it was after our show. A had it worse than I did and I actually ended up taking her to Urgent Care. She was basically told just to suck it up and deal with it because it's viral so they can't give her any antibiotics. They did prescribe some crazy strong cough and nausea medication. It basically just knocked her out and let her sleep. I think the worst part was just how stopped up our heads were. It didn't really ever settle in our chests, but it felt like I couldn't breath out of my nose for days! We're both on the mend now though thank goodness. Luckily, T and D haven't been sick.

So far this has been a great Christmas season, illness aside.  I was pretty much done shopping before December and it's been very low stress. I am just enjoying the holidays with my family. I hope everyone else is too! 

T just watched Mission Impossible so his night to do Cookie reflects that. It was pretty good.

On A's night, she had Cookie play Christmas Monopoly. The cats really loved this one and I am still finding hotels and dice under the furniture!😂 Noelle is also driving us crazy with getting in the tree. My tree might not make it to Christmas or she will live bedroom. One of the two.

T made cookies not only for his troop, but also for A's work.🥰

The Bunch's Streak Of Bad Luck Continues

We made great time on the way there! It's amazing how leaving only 30 minutes later can help immensely with traffic. I wish all the shows started at 8 instead of 7:30.  What a week this was! We went to Bass Hall to see Back to the Future. It was ok. Definitely not the best play we have seen. The boys went with us and since the last two shows they joined us for were The Outsiders, which is one of, if not our most, favorite show ever, and A Christmas Story, which is in probably in the top 6, they were really not impressed. However, we still had a nice time doing something different together.  We love Bass Hall❤️ We had opening night tickets and got a GREAT deal! I went in this week and had my polyps removed plus they did a biopsy. I was more sore and for longer than I anticipated. Yes, the doctor said recovery was about 10 days, but I really only anticipated maybe 3-4. Boy, was I wrong! It's been 7 days now and by 10 I think I will be completely back to normal. Unfortunately, sh...

The Bunch Have A Fun Week!

D had his awards banquet at a BBQ place we had been wanting to try for awhile. The food was really delicious and not greasy at all.  We have had a lot of expenses thrown at us lately. We bought our new appliances , which were well planned for. However, after that we had 2 cars to get repaired, one of which   was decided that it was too expensive and would make more sense to get a newer, stronger, younger one, I have to get some polyps removed, we owe uncle Sam money for the first time ever (thanks to the rule about the year a child turns 17 you lose the child tax credit even if the majority of the year they are 16), and lots of other little things. You know how it goes...when it rains it pours. Since we were unable to take the rv out because of the tow vehicle being unable to tow with a heavy load, more like us not wanting to risk trying, and since A had a day off work, we decided to go on an adventure to do something that none of us ever had done before. We started with...

The Bunch Say Goodbye

  Aunt P picked a lovely cemetery. It was so beautiful and peaceful. For the past 8 years or so we have helped our Aunt P.  We have had numerous visits and conversations over the years, not to mention dinners and root beer floats. We have watched her physical health decline while her mental health was still sharp as tack. Sadly, the last month of her life she had started to have several moments where she didn't know what was going on. We had numerous conversations about her death with her and we are very happy in knowing that she finally has the relief she wanted. The past year in particular was VERY hard on her and she needed help more. D and I would visit almost every Wednesday and Saturday, plus whenever she called for help. It was nice to talk to her. She was witty, smart, knew the answer to just about anything, and did a wonderful job of making you feel special and loved. I once told her that I would really miss our chats when she was gone...I will. I really enjoyed getti...
