I don't feel up to cooking the whole meal or even most of it. Don't have the room for such a big family now. So the daughters divide it up and take turn hosting. Plus their kids have all the toys and electronics. I am glad you still have your parents. Get all the stories and hugs you can. xoxo,SusieSusiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06425051654313691986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8829885494251858318.post-70075886887048905342014-11-19T04:56:51.223-08:002014-11-19T04:56:51.223-08:00Jann, I like being spoiled with warm weather.

Mom never use to lock the doors either. LOL.

Some times the water pipes would freeze. Just seemed a hard life most times for them. Too many kids and not enough pay checks. LOL.

I do not think people can never stopped missing their parents. The Holidays bring back family memories. Sheri, I went to the mailbox today and as soon as I stopped to get the mail..wowwee, I thought of all the people and kids that would be out in that wind. It's bitter cold here today. We may have made 20 degrees but with the wind it felt like below zero. You know I love seeing lodges in the snowy mountains ...just don't want to live in more snow than we get here. LOL.
