This was the culmination of the Thanksgiving weekend. Dennis enjoyed the trade show at Jackson over the weekend and came home this evening having enjoyed catching up with all the ole traders from multi states.

Today Carrie and Megan returned to Stauffer Avenue. Success! Megan finished stitching up what she has planned for her to give as Christmas presents. All she needs to do is literally keep it all under wraps until Christmas. Just between you and me . . . she would have liked to have sneaked my sewing machine home with her when she left. Tomorrow Megan will be back in school with the busy routine of a 7th grader and stitching will take a back seat to her violin and skating lessons while getting the usual homework done.

It’s been a busy great weekend and I am ready for a bit of a sedated week. I checked the schedule and there is nothing. The older ones on Stauffer can handle it.
