Thanksgiving Day Holidays

This message is coming to you from rainy, northwest Iowa = Le Mars. The rain started yesterday and hasn't stopped. At least it's not snow!
Steve, Marie & Jeff, Lynne and I went to Milford on Saturday and enjoyed dinner with my Dad, Tina, Kevin & Sadie and Connor. We played cards afterwards.
Later that night the Reiters traveled to Le Mars. We stayed at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites. We had a suite - very nice.
We celebrated G'ma Bernice's B-day on Sunday at Uncle Doug's house. On Monday Marie & Jeff headed back to Omaha to visit with Jeff's family. Geoff & Lynne returned to Garner/Mason City. Steve and I remained in Le Mars.
I plan to return to Garner tomorrow. Lynne and I will enjoy dinner at Terri & John's house in Nora Springs. Steve will return to Wichita after eating T-day dinner with his family at his sister, Mary Beth's house.
Bye for now.

Looking forward to the weekend...

I'm looking forward to the upcoming weekend. Why? Steve and I, Marie & Jeff, Geoff and Lynne are heading to Milford and Le Mars! On Saturday we'll be in Milford visiting Grandpa Sherrill. On Sunday thru Tuesday we'll be in Le Mars visiting the Reiter relatives. Geoff has school for the 3 days before T-day so he'll head back on Sunday. Marie & Jeff will be spend Thanksgiving Day with Jeff's family in Omaha. Steve heads back to KS on Thursday.

Geoff, Lynne and I will spend our Thanksgiving Day with Terri and John A. and some of the Sage family in Nora Springs. I'm bringing the pies!

Tomorrow I go in for a colonoscopy. Today it's only clear liquids. I start taking the medicine late afternoon. Terri is going to pick me up and bring me home.

On Saturday I had lunch with Terri and Barb. On Sunday I had supper with Geoff, Dana & Andy. Both times at Benegin's in Clear Lake!

Wow! How time flies!

The weather for the past few days has been GREAT! After that small cold snap and week of rain, I'm glad that the sun is finally out!

Lynne came home from ISU for the weekend. It was really nice to see her again and have another live body in the house. On Saturday, we went for breakfast with Geoff, Dana, & Andy. Perkins, of course! That night Geoff & Dana joined us for pizza at the OP in CL. Two meals out in one day!

This upcoming weekend Geoff and I are going to West Bend to pick up a couch and table that Trudy gave me. We are going to meet up with Dad S. and help him a little.

We are all very excited about the weekend of the 21-22! Steve, me, Jeff & Marie, Geoff and Lynne are meeting in Le Mars for an early Thanksgiving. We are going to try to get to Milford on Saturday to see G-pa S. and Uncle Tim before they head south to Canton, TX. We will be there until the 24th. Jeff and Marie head back to Omaha for T-day with Jeff's family. Geoff has to go back to school on the 23rd for 3 days. :( Lynne will head back to Garner with me when Steve heads back to KS on Thanksgiving Day. I will take her back to ISU on the weekend.

On Thanksgiving Day, my good friend, Terri and her husband, invited us for dinner at their house. Geoff, Lynne, Dana and I will be in Nora Springs with some of her family. Terri & John are having their actual Turkey Meal on Sunday, when all the family can be there.

Well, it's time to stop. Have a great week!
Love ya,
Theresa
