Mom and Dad Visit!

Our November of special guest stars continued last weekend with my parents who arrived from Florida to brave the 70-degree Ohio November weather.

We had a great time enjoying the fabulous Orbit Room, dining at Caffe Capri, watching football at Jillians and more football in the Rat Pack Tiki Bar. My Mom is the world's biggest Peyton Manning fan so she was here to witness the big Sunday night game against the New England Patriots.

Well, she KIND OF witnessed it. Convinced Peyton's team was going to lose, she went to bed with a couple of minutes left... Dad went to get her after the miracle finish was under way.

Here they are during dinner:

MOM AND DAD

Dad and I went out to check out HD TVs since my parents are threatening to enter the digital age. Dad also got a little plumbing in when our utility sink decided to act up. He is far handier than me.

Despite the impromptu plumbing adventure, we really had a great time!

They left Monday. Mary's Mom arrived Friday as our third house guest in as many weeks. Grace is a good sport as as soon as Mary left for work Saturday, we got the outdoor decorating under way. I chose a return to a more classic theme this year:

A VERY BRADY CHRISTMAS

Our goal every year is to surprise Mary when she turns down our street after work. I am hoping she will be pleasantly surprised!

More later,

Mark
