crowns, concerts & cardigans

Miss emolyn & Mimi

• I recently ingested a permanent crown worth lots of $$ ~ the dental assistant accidentally dropped it in my mouth, panicked and froze. When I asked what happened ~ it slid down my throat. After a couple hours of Xrays at Urgent Care to ensure it would pass ~ I was given the option of a new one or "retrieving" the old one in a couple days. Umm, no thank you, I'll take a new one.
• I'm all for recycling... but not something that has cycled through my body... if you know what I mean.
• Btw, they didn't charge for another one, nor Urgent Care.
• Randy & I leave for Wausau, Wisconsin on Friday to celebrate the 10th Anniversary of Ranlin Homes with a benefit concert, dinner and Silent Auction. Ranlin Homes was named after Randy & I ~ so we're pretty excited to celebrate the success and expansion of this amazing ministry. 
• My friend Linda & I will be singing, along with Randy, and also Linda & her daughter Heather.

• Happy 1st Birthday to my granddaughter Elsie Lane! Omg, I love that bugabooski!
• Randy & I are spending two days in Door County while in Wisconsin. The colors will be at their peak and I'll be savoring every single second.
• The cooler weather will be a welcome change. 
• We're talking cardigans, hats and scarves and JEANS! I can hardly wait!
• Thanks to my high school friend Betsy's brother Peter, for giving me permission to use the image he captured last fall, for my latest blog banner. It's near where I grew up ~ in the Pigeon Falls area. I love it!

• Celebrating Nicole's 30th Birthday ~ that's emolyn & elsie's Mommy!
