Holiday Wishes........

Hey there everyone, Michael here.  I've just got to tell you that Mr. Rob and Mrs. Trisha came home from work yesterday and said it was the first day of the holiday break for them.  I don't think I've ever seen adults that happy about anything.  It was kinda funny.  I just wanted to make a short post this morning to wish everyone a very Happy Holiday season, and to thank everyone who takes time from their busy day to read my blog. 





Mr. Rob wanted me to make sure to tell everyone to be safe if you are travelling during the Holidays.  He really wanted me to make sure I told you to be sure NOT to text and drive.  He found this cartoon online that shows even Santa can't text and drive.  I will be posting more next week.  So everyone take care, have fun, and stay safe.  --Michael--

Another Christmas Party.....

Hey everyone it's Michael here. 
This week I got to go with Mrs. Jane to a Christmas party with some of her friends who are members of The Rowan County Brain Injury Support Group.  It was a blast! Below are some pictures.  Mr. Rob will tell you more about this great group of people and what they do below.

One of the first things I noticed when I got there was the yummy goodies.  I couldn't wait to get me some cookies.  You know how much I love cookies.



Well I did find me some cookies.  I found a whole pack of Chocolate Chip cookies that I thought could just be all mine!!  Well, I was told I had to share them.  Now for those of you who do not know what share means, it means you have to give away your Chocolate Chip cookies and be happy about it!!

At least there were some fun games to play
We all played a game call "Dirty Santa."  I am not exactly sure what the rules were, but it was fun.  I got to check out the presents and even open one!




There was lots of food, presents, and fun at this party.  I sure did enjoy myself, and I was sure to tell the great people there a "Thank-you" for inviting me.  If fact, The Rowan Brain Injury Support Group has invited me to go in the van to see Christmas Lights.  I am so excited!  I will be sure to post and tell everyone all about it.  Have a great week!
