The Bunch Celebrate St Patrick's Day And Get Ready For Prom

We picked up lime sodas from 7 brew. They were so good!

In a completely unexpected twist of availability, we ended up celebrating St Patrick's Day with C & H. We aren't really fanatics about the day, but we usually watch Leap Year and have a green shake. This time we went to C's for dinner. He made his pulled pork and it was FANTASTIC! We really love pulled pork and don't have it very often. I made some potato salad, beans, and a coconut cake to go with it. In spirit of the day, C made us green beer, though I really don't think you can call a Michelob Zero a beer. I am not really a beer fan and the Michelob Zero tasted pretty good! I will definitely have some again. We had a great visit! I really value time with loved ones.

Izzy wasn't sure about sharing her chair.😂

H is doing well and has lost a lot of weight! She looks great!!

C just got a new job that he was recruited for. He has not only a higher salary, but also better benefits because it's a lot larger company.

We spent the majority of the week getting T ready for prom. It wasn't on our radar that he would go to a second prom, but his girlfriend invited him to her prom. This was NOT the crazy super awesome prom that was T's. There was no 5 course dinner, no aerialists, no Dolorian, no white witch, no centaurs wandering around, and no decor. Literally, like no theme at all. This was a straight up public school prom with no decor and no games. There was a DJ, some cookies, and lemonade. To be honest, it made me feel a little sad. However, he still had a blast. We took them to IHOP afterwards for some yummy breakfast food. The prom was held at the speedway and I didn't feel comfortable having them drive so we took them. While they were dancing the night away, we went to a theater nearby. We saw Project Hail Mary. I cannot believe how much we loved this movie! In fact, we were laughing so much I repeatedly had to tell D to quiet down.

I go in this week to have some polyps removed so we probably won't do a lot this week.

We met at a Chapel to take some pictures before Prom.

I thought the corsage he found was really pretty.

Maisy has graduated to diapers when we leave the house. I think they are cute.😂

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...
