We have had an extremely busy first quarter of 2019!! Hubby has had two angiogram procedures to put stents in major heart arteries. Very odd because he has had no really obviously symptoms...and since he complained at 38 that he thought he was having a heart attack, the occasional mention of low grade chest pains were basically blown off by me!!! . But all is well....he is fine, the procedures are amazing....go in thru the wrist artery (not even a stitch afterwards to close it!), they do all the work with a tiny camera that goes up the artery to the heart and “snoops” around—and which they insert the stents as well!!! He spent the nite in the hospital after each procedure (one 1/30 and one 4/1) but that is only so they could monitor an EKG for 12 hours. They only give twilight sleep so no real recovery other than to monitor the pressure on the incision to be sure there is no bleeding.

Meanwhile, hubby’s sister’s husband has spent the past 3 months in the hospital recovering from a near lethal dose of chemo for the lung cancer they diagnosed in early November. It has been touch and go for more than 2 months, although he has now been in a skilled nursing facility for about 3 weeks....regaining strength for whatever lies ahead. Based on his overall condition and complicating issues, they have not been able to even attempt any further treatment for the cancer. So that is an evolving story. My SIL has been there EVERY DAY from the beginning and literally snatched him from the jaws of death at least 3 times when the docs, who didn’t really know him or his issues, might have let him slip away.

On a lighter and more positive note, we were in Alaska in March for granddaughter #1’s District Championships for ice hockey. They finished 4th in the tournament behind 3 excellent Alaska teams, so technically they finished #1 on the west coast in their division (Alaska is its own entity and plays by slightly different rules). It was a very respectable showing and the girls played extremely well. They weren’t chosen for one of the 2 “at large” slots in the national tournament, but that is ok. They are playing roller hockey tournaments in the off season to keep in shape!!!

We are having a crowd on Easter, including my brother and SIL (from VA), their daughter and her family (they are all going to Disneyland for 3 days first—niece won tix and resort lodging on radio show in PHX!), our son and family, as well as our Korean familiy (son’s college roommate who lives in the area). A local niece and SIL may also come over for a while. Daughter and the 3 granddaughters are arriving on Monday for almost 2 weeks!! The eldest of the 3 won the county science fair and is competing in the state competition April 29-30 in LA following their Easter break week which begins next Monday. Just call us the Dos Lobos Inn and Suites!!! LOL. I think I need an event planner!!!! LOL

Just seeing on TV that Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris is buring....almost demolished. . Beautiful icon....spared in WWII....Very, very sad.

Wishing all my sisters a wonderful week and a blessed Easter. I will try to check in more often.... . I know....promises, promises!!!

XOXOXO

Wow Jet and I thought I had been busy...So glad your hubby is doing well and on the mend.  Hope your BIL gets to some form of being alright after his issues.  
Alaska sounds nice and glad the girls did well...Boy are you having a house full.  I know it will be loads of fun and confusion.  

Hope to see you again soon.

Ah, it is. It's the first day of autumn! A time for hot chocolatety mornings, and toasting marshmallow evenings, as best of all, leaping into *leaves*!

Thanks for posting the pics, CEK.  
The wedding dress is gorgeous.  In fact one of the most beautiful ones I've seen in a long time.  Same for the headpiece.  I had been dreading to see another 'severe' hairdo like that monumental bun Peta wore.  In years/decades  to come, when looking at the photos, they should be very pleased with these tasteful choices.  Imo, of course....  It looks like it will stand the test of time.  I was pleasantly surprised that they went with such a timeless style. 

Hi Gabriele...I agree with you I think her dress was beautiful, simple but elegant and her hair and hair piece was just the right touch.  I agree they won't look back in 20 years and say "what the heck was I thinking" becasue they are timeless.  I am happy their taste was what it was.  

 
I’m with you on the dress, Gabriele....very understated and certainly less revealing than I would have expected for Jenna!!! LOL. Nice taste!!! You are correct that it will stand the test of time.

I agree with the "monumental bun" comment.
 

I will add to that agreement, that bun should be outlawed.  LOL
Oh Annie so glad to see you on the board.  Hope you are doing well.  Pop in again soon.
HUGS
