Helo, Friends. Everything fine here. It is cool to cold this week. Right now we have the heat on & a space heater in the great room. Next week it will be back to the 70's- weird weather, I never know what to wear.lol
Jean, that's interesting that you are tracing your ancestry. A great aunt of mine, after raising 7 children, was bored with time on her hands so she traced our ancestry back to England. My maiden name was Dawkins, a good ole English name. In the 1600's there were 2 Dawkins brothers who were farmers in the English countryside & they came on a boat to this country. One settled in Virginia, the other in Maryland & we are descended from the one in Maryland. It is intersting to find out these things & to think you found your niece. That is really neat.
Hello to all of Alan's other great fans.

Harriet, we're having the same weather here! I have the heat on also.
Quiet weekend planned. Will watch some college football. I bowled last night in our league and the world series was on. I haven't been watching it though. Turned it on when I got home, but fell asleep before it was over.
Elaine have fun with Jess. My grandson is having a paintball birthday party. I'm trying to talk Jerry into going up there just to make an appearance. Won't know until tomorrow whether we go or not. I don't want to go up with my dil and be there the whole time.
Y'all have a good weekend. I bought Halloween candy and have been eating on it since I bought it. We don't even get trick or treaters here and I buy the candy anyway! LOL!

Boo Sharon, lol
And we know who eats your candy hehe! Good idea.. I think I will put mine out on a serving table and Put a sign, take one. I saw that on a commercial and the little girl took a handful of candy and her brother said "Only one piece" to which she replied "I Can't read" lol My husband refuses to put out candy now, since the mean children smashed our pumpkin ha! We found it was older children, that did it.
We have lights to shine spooks on our garage door.I think the candy at the door, I can arrange. They may take the table hehe
Harriet, I have some Dawkins in my family.. way back.My cousin found we are scotch from way back.It is good to pass on to our children. I have old photos of my mom's family and Dads.I just recently saw my Mom's Dad's Photo and had it copied, it was touching.He died at 30 with pneumonia back then. Mom never saw him, he died before they( she was a twin) were born. Her older sister was 10 when he died and she said "he was the best man she had ever known. He had thick lips like me and was so handsome. My grandfather was a constable, on Dad's side.He had a brother who was a Doctor.
Sharon we have had most of our Grands birthday Parties, why I do not know. we had one at a party place, one here,
with all the moms and dads when small, one at the Teddy bear making place and many more.One of my grands last Birthday's, we took them to NY to the Met museum! How can we top that ha!I kept them while my daughter worked, so
we are really close.
It is finally cool in sunny FL, so nice but what to wear is a problem Harriet..
Kathy, we need to re-do our Kitchen and enjoy your new carpet. I must get busy, hello to Nelle and I miss Terry too!
wonder how Jean/az is doing, fine I hope. Jean/b enjoy your trip! All of you Take care now, Jerrie

Had a good time with Jess and Georgie loved playing
with the dogs.Got to watch Kelsey's games on the
computer. She had a great start to her year.Both
the women and mens team won Friday and Saturdays
games. Teresa brought me the program as Kelsey
was on the cover of it. Kelsey is loving the school and
has made lots of friends.
Not good at being away from home so was happy to get
back last night.

Well Shoot, a filling fell out of my tooth Sunday. Haven't called the dentist yet! Hate that. Sure hope it wasn't because of MilK Duds! LOL! Don't think so, old fillings, old teeth!
I didn't go to Grant's party. Just stayed home, my cold was bothering me and Jerry didn't seem too excited about going, sooooo, Kim sent me a picture and Grant called me when he got home. We did go to his ball game last night. It's the playoffs and his team won, so they play again tonight.
Jean/B, I did see where AJ thanked all his fans. I carved a jack o'lantern and sent the picture to the fan club page on fb. Very juvenile carving, but what can I say? LOL!
I'm off to call the dentist. Have a great Tuesday!

Hello, nice to be on the board after all that genealocical work. I had a great time at the archives, amazing to see all these old documents on micro-film. I fond relatives back till 1650, i go back in a few weeks because they have documents till 1500. Seeming our family was and is still fidel to the region here. I fond them all in a circle of 10miles/15km. lol
Harriet, nice to read your ancesters came from England ... maybe it would be nice to know where all of you , AJ Fans, are coming from? ...Anybody else knows ?
Jean

Hi Fans!
We had agreat Anniversary weekend. We had to go down to my sister's as my bil was to have surgery, a rotator cup but
his red platlets(sp?) were too low, so he had to postpone the surgery.Hopefully he will be ok , he has taken so much blood thinner and has to wear a necklace to show he is a bleeder or he could die. He is in great shape for his age, but I am so glad they didn't do the surgery. I want him to get the best Dr possible. It was very upsetting to me, because I love him like a brother.He may chose not to have the surgery at all, but he has been in such pain..Harriet you understand
being a nurse, but I'm not familar with this procedure..
They took us out to the "Chart House" by the water, for dinner. it was the best meal and we got two souvenir glasses
that the champagne was in and the menu with our names on it . It was delicious and such fun. Their house looks a bit like Alan's in Jupiter, much too big for us to take care of..It was fun, especially after him not having the surgery. I am
really close to my older Sis and she can run circles around me. she is busy always.
She had the house decorated for halloween and in our room she had this arm sticking out of the closet( scared me to death lol) but what was funny, a neighbors cat had gotten in the closet somehow when they had the garage door open and when we went in that room the black cat jumped out, where the arm was LOL.. I told Sis, she really overdid it ha!She had to call her neighbor to get her cat. It must have gotten in the closet when we were getting our clothes out of the car..LOL it seemed like every turn a beeper went off, the security put me on edge..The pool inside was nice..sounds like a waterfall and it's lighted, so nice but the alligator in the pond near the back of the house got on my nerves LOL
we stayed there two nights and then drove home and shopped some on the way..we had a wonderful time. I missed not posting and hearing about Alan and you Guys. Take care all of you, I'm so tired..Jerrie -Sharon sorry you broke that toofer but you might be a hit on Halloween lol no sorry , it was a filling. Don't let them hurt you now. I hate dentist offices ha!

Jean I know my family came from a Germany colony
in Russia. When Catherine the great married the Russian
Czar she took her people from Germany with her becasue they
were good farmers. I have my moms pass board from when
they came over to Canada. They took a boat from England so
I would love to know how they got from Russia to England.
My mom was two and my dad was just a baby when they came
to Canada. How I wished I had asked Grampa more questions.
Had a busy three days with Shirley. I was so tired. We left the house
at 12 on Wed and didn't get home until 7:30. Georgie was not happy
being left alone for that long.

This is why I would love for Alan to do a Duet with Carrie, she is such a great young Lady.
I have seen Vince Gill many times and Love him too, but Alan could do a Duet with Carrie and it would be so nice..
Listen to this and a standing ovation too. She said "Alan's was the first concert she went to, when young" an honor

PS My favorite Song they did at my Dad's funeral Years back.

Hi Y'all,
No trick or treaters tonight. Got my temporary crown on this morning. The dentist said my mouth would be sore and it is! Yeow!
Good to see you Nelle, hope you are doing okay.
