MERRY
CHRISTMAS ALL YEAR LONG FROM THE WOMMACKS!!
January
I
started the year off right by taking all of my girls to Great Wolf Lodge in
Grapevine—one of our favorite places to go.
Jordan
(Jim’s oldest) is a Junior at Big Spring High School.
Anna (LeAnn’s oldest) is
in the 8th grade at White Settlement Middle School.
Carter (Jim’s youngest) is
in the 2nd grade at Moss Elementary.
Ada (LeAnn’s youngest) is
in the 6th grade at White Settlement Intermediate School.
LeAnn teaches 8th
grade science at White Settlement Middle School.
Ryan teaches 6th
grade social studies at Arlington Classics Academy.
Jim is associate principal
at Big Spring Junior High.
Carman is assistant
principal at Moss Elementary
February
Lee and I are still
working with East Coke County Ambulance Service and we volunteered at the
District Special Olympics Basketball Tourney.
Such an inspiration to watch the athletes and at the same time make us
so thankful for our grandgirls.
March
Both of us are active in
Retired Teachers. I went to the TRTA
Rally Day at the capitol in Austin.
April
I did lots of subbing in
both Bronte and Blackwell. Lee continues
to make improvement at our property north of Bronte—The Playground!!
May
We went to Sierra Blanca
to the 50th reunion of the “kids” who graduated while we lived
there. Lee spent three days in the
hospital (May 15-17)—blood clot in right lung and pneumonia in left.
June
Lee returned to hospital
on May 30. A pulmonologist was called in
and he was finally diagnosed with pleural empyema and after having two tubes
inserted into his lung to drain fluid.
He got home on
June 5. Both
of us volunteered at the annual Save the Park Day the middle of the month.
July
We went to Ruidoso July
6-9 with Jim and his family. Had a
wonderful time!! Carter spent several
days here during the month.
August
Anna and Ada were here
about two weeks and Carter was here for a few days. That meant lots of time at the swimming
pool. I even broke down and let the girls
go to the pool by themselves—then Lee and I went back and forth checking on
them!!
September
We
went to Gruver for the 60th reunion of the class of 1957. Is it truly possible that I graduated 60
years ago?!?!?
October
We volunteered at the
annual Brontoberfest. Spent most of the
morning at one of the ticket gates.
Well—Lee stayed at the gate and I took Carter to the park area. We were in charge of the Weenie Races late in
the afternoon. That is the most fun time
of Brontoberfest!!
November
We have so much for which
to be thankful!! LeAnn and her family
came the weekend before Thanksgiving and Jim and his family came a couple of
days before Thanksgiving, but they overlapped for one day so had both kids here
for a short time.
December
Christmas is the time to
celebrate our Savior’s birth. And as we
end the year of 2017, Lee and I would like to say “May the peace and beauty of
the Christmas season remain with you throughout the new year of 2018!!”
