Look what I found in mom's closet; my high-school letter jacket! The class of 1985 rocks! Bob, Joan & I laughed hard when I put it on. It's ridiculous but it was tradition for students to sew their track or other sports medals on their letter jacket. I do remember wearing it but not often. It was heavy & would jingle. Oh boy! :-)
Bob, Joan & I went to the Atlantic high school BB game. So glad we did because they won & Jacey (Monte & Emily's youngest) is the assistant coach. Was fun to cheer with Monte, Emily, Janna, Kavan, Riley & Keelan.
Jacey is in the middle of the huddle wearing black. Congrats, Jacey!
Bob flew out for work the next day while Joan & I had another 24 hours to spend with mom. We decorated her room & finished some other projects.
We found this Christmas stocking, wreath & star at an Atlantic thrift store. Looks so cute on mom's room door!
We decorated her little Christmas tree & found the ladder with elves from an Elk Horn thrift store. LOVE it!
Bob, Joan & I feel good about mom's care facility. The staff are so kind to mom & mom is feeling more at home. We are gonna miss mom a lot. Thankful for this time together - so special!
Love your school jacket...wonderful that you could spend time with your mother and decorate her room for Christmas...she looks really good!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Karen. Glad we had a few extra days with mom. I thought she was doing better too!
