Happy New Year!

Time for the holiday and end of year report. It's been a little cool here (highs in the 60's) but Grannie and Becky thought it was great compared to where they came from. They have been to several dances, Bingo, and pinochle games. Grannie won $100 at the Tuesday night Bingo game. We met a couple from northern Illinois and ended up going to their house for a Christmas Eve party. I think the guy, Gale, an antique car buff, is after Grannie's Model A, he also mentioned he knew about the Bingo winnings. We had the catered Christmas dinner in the Ballroom and met lots of new interesting people at both events. Carrie and Zack came to visit for 4 days right after Christmas and we had a great time with them. Everyone but Grannie and Zack went to see the movie "It's Complicated". I'm pretty sure it was funny since I was afraid Becky was going to get arrested for uncontrolled laughter in a public place. They have all gone back home now and we were left to go the New Year's Eve party by ourselves. The park Ballroom, where the party was, is only about 100 steps from our door so we were able to negotiate the trip ok.
