Friday Update - Brian Came Today

Brian made a surprise visit this morning.  Ceil was delighted.  They went to Fester's favorite store, Walmart and did a little shopping and looking around.  After that, it was off to Ciati's for an early lunch.  Linda and Rob joined them.

So true!

Linda took her lunch hour to be with Ceil and Brian

Ciati's has a beautiful interior design

Later, it was out for a walk in the fall evening.  Ceil and the little man enjoyed the walk.  The breeze was warm and amazing too.

The answer is blowin' in the wind

The flowers were still beautiful in October

Thursday is Doug Day II

Ceil had a nice morning.  First, it was communion with the deacon, and then it was off to Munsinger park to spend some time outside in the beautiful fall sunshine.  For lunch, it was Mongo's grill.

Ceil is like a flower to this butterfly

The butterfly and Ceil became fast friends

An apple in the park - yum!

Lunch at Mongo's grill

They are really cooking here!

Wednesday Update

Today was one of those very quiet days for Ceil.  The usual therapy and movement to keep things going forward.  Later, we jumped in the van and went boot shopping for Linda at Kohl's.  Other than that, a quiet day for Ceil.  Thursday will bring Fr. Allan and communion.  Doug will also be here again to spend the morning with Ceil.   Thanks Doug!

Tuesday Update

Doug and Ceil were out at St. John's nature trail this morning.  What a beautiful day for a walk.

Ah, what a beautiful day here at St. John's

Afterward, it was off to, where else?  Dickie's BBQ!

Can't pose, eating!

Now I'm ready for my close up.

Saturday update- Fun Day to Start October

Ceill woke to a beautiful 1st day of October.  Colleen and Kevin came to take Ceil on a trip down memory lane.  They started with a drive to Cold Spring. A stop at the Cold Spring Bakery was a must! Donut holes- yum-yum (and a treat for later on).  Then it was a drive through Rockville and past the Louie and Betty's farm (family legend says Grampa Nick won the down payment on that farm playing poker with the Fandels and the Petters). Ceil, Kevin and Colleen enjoyed a nice lunch at Brigette's- of course one of the old time waitresses knew Ceil and came over to the table to say hello.  Thanks Kevin and Colleen for Ceil's trip down memory lane.  After a nap, Ceil was up and running a again.  Ceil was off to SCSU to cheer on the Huskie Football team.  Ceil was on the 50 yard line for the kickoff.  She cheered as the Huskies scored a field goal and then a few plays later ran kick off in for a touchdown.  Ceil enjoyed listening to the band and watching the cheerleaders cheer for the home team.  Keeping with the theme, Ceil enjoyed hotdogs and rootbeer for dinner upon returning home at half time.  After dinner it was time to decorate for Halloween- BOO! Enjoy the pictures.
