The brginning

Sure pray this works this is the third time trying to get this to go thru on the blog. It is so frustrating when it doesn't work and publish. My cousin Jeanie and her husband Ron brought this big bulb, in this tiny pot with 2 tablesspoons of dirt on it to me when I had only been out of the hospital about 4 days. She gave me 10 minutes of instructions as to how to take care of this thing. I thought why would anybody bring me all this work when I was trying to get myself ready to leave for Texas. I had so much healing and learning to do and here is this flower. But I have apologized to her several times it has turned out beautiful and still getting pretti We have really enjoyed it so much everyday. Our manager's wife loves flowers and she is watching it to. Only God has kept it alive and showed us another one of his great creation. Hope you enjoy it as much as we have.

Our amaryllis

Just wanted you to be able to see the different stages the flower is going through. We can see a change everyday. It is so neat to watch, we just love it.

Our beautiful flower

We are enjoying our beautiful amaryllis. Lowell takes pictures twice a day. This is belief that only God can create something this beautiful. See the other fat stock coming up beside the blooms. It should be coming out real soon. This guy has been growing everyday trying to catch up with the first flowers. Don't know if he will be as tall and have as many blooms or not, but we shall see. More on them next week.

Our Tree

As you can see the parade got me moving to get our decorations out. Took all the energy I had to get these few up. My Christmas spirit is not the greatest this year. We had church in the park today and had I think about 20 people or so. Went reallly well. We enjoyed it. We also had our $2.00 banana split party this afternoon, tasted really good too. So another busy day and I'll probably play cards too.

Christmas Parade

We had a Christmas parade in our park. Anybody that had a golf cart could decorate it and get in the contest. The motor cycle with Santa Claus won first prize. Then they sang Christmas Carols on the porch.

Senile

That is one big piece of something and that is what we followed, he was finally able to pull over and let us pass. Unless you have been to Ohio and drove on the Horseshoe Bend road you won't appreciate this little stretch of road in La Grange Texas. Sharp curves and right straight down on my side. I enjoyed it though guess it is the kid in me.

The top photo is one of the pictures I missed to post on the way down here. This is Shaeffer, Sadie and Sophie Marks grown up kids and his horse.
The next picture is in McAllister OK. They are statues of the cattle drive going thru there, really neat but no place to pull over. We had a delay on the way down. Clear up in front of this big roll of hay was a big piece pf something anyhow we all slowed down for miles. We always figure the Lord is slowing us down for a reason.
