Hey family, I have good news and I have bad news.
The good news is I will be making regular Vlog entries. The bad news is that I won't have time to update them here everyday. I will post my first video here but it's up to you to find the other entries. You can easily accomplish this by searching my name on YouTube. I should be updating it every other day. Here is the first video.

This is a tree w/ little red lights on it, and poinsettias blow it. Just wanted to tell you that we had a real good time this Christmas. Connie was off work the week following Christmas, so that was good.
Dad is fine, and doesn't have a cold any more.
So here I'll end what I have to say.
Love you all!!
Linda
Tree and poinsettias
HI all!!
Somthing about the blog makes me put exclamation points on sentences.... So here I am at the Garfield Park Conservatory, 300 N. Central, Chicago. I was there w/ 3 of our Christmas House International (CIH) students & Dad. We had a real good time there. In the picture, is a pond w/
Chihuly sculptures made of glass in the pond.
I'm going to get some more pics of us there, if I can get back to Picasa & import them.
Next 2 pics are also of the Conservatory. I took lots of pics there, making it more fun!

hi from Connie in Jan 2011
Thnks to everyone for the pics and th narratives
We Chicagoans are all well (mostly) and had a very lovely Christmas time.
Had two intl students: Robert from China and U Mich
and ByoungJu from Korea and SUNY Stonybrook
Some fun activities with them and the othr students, wonderful food-- too much, but the best thing was the warm feelings and th sense of getting to know someone unique and gifted
We were happy that Marli and Nick took the time to visit one Sun p.m. They are looking good, they had had time over the holidays with Nick's parents and the Bardells and one day, all of them together.
I wish I had the words of a poet, so I could convey my warm feelings for you , and/or some of the realities of life here. Good neighbors, good books, good food, God's comfort in ups and downs... my blessed life!
