Happy Valentine's Day

Rachel had her Valentine's Day a day early since she was busy with Bible study tonight. Kenny took her out to dinner, gave her chocolates, a stuffed bear, and potted miniature red roses. I'd say she did pretty well! I think it was her first Valentine's Day to have a boyfriend. If you haven't been reading her her blog, you should check it out and see more photos.

Gary and I took a day off work for our Valentine's Day. Well, not really. Really it was to take Gary to the Low Vision Clinic to get his once-every-five-years eye check up and get the magic letter that lets him renew his driver's license. The eye appointment went well, and they said his macular degeneration had not gotten any worse, though he is now show some signs of far sightedness due to age. Then off the DMV for a two hour wait and a young lady who had no clue how to deal with the magic paper. Eventually, Gary was able to talk them into renewing his license. Yay, done with that for the next five years.

Speaking of Gary--poor guy couldn't even find anyone willing to go to the local HS basketball game with him tonight, so he went by himself (using his new driver's license). Duncanville and DeSoto have each lost only one game and they were playing each other tonight. Our boss will be there, but he's the announcer. Bobby Knight couldn't make it, but he did call to give his best wishes during practice the other day. Apparently two guys on the team are being scouted by the pros.

Gary leaves for Germany on Friday. I have to think of some gifts to send with him to our German daughters.

Pray for Rachel--she takes her last Texas Teacher exam on Saturday.
