Birthdays too

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARGARET

We thought we had it well planned out 39 years ago.  Grandma Weichert would come to visit when Margaret was about a month old on November 19th.  Grandma Weichert arrived when expected but Margaret held off until November 20th.  I remember waking Grandma at 5 am and telling her we were on the way to the hospital.  And, oh by the way, you'll have to make cupcakes to take to school for John's birthday and make a batman cake for John's 6th birthday party.  She was a trooper and took charge.  

Margaret was our joy and delight.  She still is and it is with great excitement that we anticipate the birth of her first children, a boy and a girl within the next month.  She has proven to be an excellent daughter (and according to Erick's parents, a great daughter-in-law),  a perfect wife (or so Erick would say if I let him chime in) and a successful career woman.  We are so proud of her.

About Me

We retired after years of being in the computer support business, Jane with Brulin Corp and John with Unisys. We tried tent camping but finally settled on RV living. While we are part timers now, we hope to move to becoming full-timers eventually. John works on his HO model of Ellis, KS UP railroad and Jane persues her search for used books to read and sell on Amazon. We winter in Apache Junction, AZ and summer in Indiana.
