Grant's News
Grant's week went pretty uneventfully. Valentine's Day was
busy at the restaurant of course and Grant covered a position called "expo"
which is the go-between for the kitchen and servers. Basically you put the
orders together, verify they are correct, and then send them out to the table.
So Tuesday was a little crazy. Wednesday he was off, and was supposed to be off
Thursday, but somehow he got confused what day it was and went into work
Thursday, thinking it was Friday and was there a whole hour before anyone said
anything. He ended up working the rest of the afternoon anyways. The weekend was
fairly busy, which is both a blessing and headache, but after a month of super
slow business and skimpy tips, Grant was happy to come home with a bit more
money in his pocket. Today Grant was especially excited to see that the
daffodils in the flower beds are coming up. His 2012 gardening may now
commence.
The Jackson's of Albuquerque
This week was a long one for Stacie now
that she is home alone, waiting for Henry to make his appearance. She did enjoy
spending her free time completing some projects around the house, talking to
Mom, taking naps and going on long walks. On Thursday Stacie & Kevin
attended a doctor's appointment where they set a date to be induced. Unless
Henry decides to come any sooner, they plan to be induced this upcoming
Thursday. Later that day they took a stroll through the foothills together and
enjoyed the beautiful Albuquerque weather.
On Friday Stacie had an ultrasound to insure that their baby is doing
alright. The ultrasound
technician announced that he was a very active baby for this stage and
that he looked ready to arrive at any minute. We pray that everything goes well
with his delivery and look forward to sharing some happy news this
week.
The Wisconsin Haws Family
The week has flown. We have had some snow but for the most part we have enjoyed great weather. I am beginning to plan the garden area and the other day on a walk with Molly I heard birds chirping. I am anxiously awaiting the first robin.
Mom will be leaving us on Wednesday to go to Albuquerque. She is anxious to go and we will miss her but we know she is doing something only a mom can do.
Logan participated in solo and ensemble this last Friday. His piano piece turned out very nice. Mom and I greatly enjoyed it. He also sang a solo but despite arriving on time to hear Logan we missed his performance. They moved up the time for the performance. He did receive a 1 mark for both pieces. That was great, Logan.
Lanette was able to spend time at the Elmhorst this weekend. That was her favorite activity. She has enjoyed talking with Grant about disasters, global warming and all sorts of other things.
Emily was accepted to the University of Minnesota. I am hoping that she will accept the opportunity to study there. We will keep you all updated.
I have continued to work on family history. I have been working with a very kind gentleman in Charlesbourg, Quebec that is really helping me. My goal is to find out more information regarding Pierre Man who was born in 1796. I am still looking for his parents and siblings. I will keep you posted.
Love,
Dad
