I remember when I was 10 or 12, my family was going over to Aunt Marg and Uncle Larry's house one night. I had a slight fever and my mom said
I had to stay home. I tried icing the thermometer to show my fever was gone so I could go to Aunt Margie's. My mom caught me because my temp was like 92. I loved Aunt Marge so much I am in Florida and my daughter Kari and family just arrived. When I get back I want to take you guys, Randy , Lee and Kari out
to dinner to talk about old times. Love you guys!!
