Dear Shelby,
Such pretty writing paper! Glad to hear from you.
Our weekend was rough. The wind was wicked. This one is supposed to be the same. We had snow & rain. The Poconos got 18".
I just made some cranberry jello. I love cranberries. I got a half gallon of frozen vanilla yogurt with cranberries & raspberry swirl. It was Kemp's. Tell your Mom ~~ She asked me what kind it was and I couldn't remember at the time.
I am reading "The Capture" by Victoria Holt.
I loved the pictures of your house. I couldn't believe how far along they have gotten in so short a time. Your Mom says your Dad & Buddy are going there today about the wiring.
Your Mom says they want to come up before the holiday, so I better get some cookies started. Last year she called & said they were coming up & I only had a few days to get any made.
Ruth & I went to Red Lobster for lunch on Thursday. I would rather have gone to Country Buffet but she likes to be "waited on" so I don't push the issue.
The afghan is so pretty. I blocked it & it sure is big!
Well hon, I better close now & get some dusting done. Write when you can & have a nice holiday!
Love always,
Grandma
Love to Jack.
