Party on!

We got my mom last night. I told you she just celebrated her 75Th birthday this past week. We had a surprise party for her last night at the Pit and Pub in Conneaut Lake. She had no idea! We had all her friends and all my brothers and sisters (except for Chris, She is in Switzerland for a month). I think they had 80 people there. Was a great time by all. My sister Rose and her husband Dave stayed with us for the weekend. We all had a wonderful time. It was nice to have company here. I will post pics of her party early on this week. After we got home from the party, I turned on the pirate game to see how they were doing. They were down 9-3 in the 6Th inning. I really didn't want to watch them get hammered by the Cardinals, so, I put on the movie "Charlies Angels" on Cinemax. Went to bed after the movie, without checking how the game went. I got up this morning, and after 2-3 cups of coffee, I got on the Internet, and checked on the scores. I could not believe my eyes! The Pirates came back and won 12-11 in 10 innings! Nate Mclouth hit a 3 run homer in the ninth inning, and Jason Michaels hit a game winning 2 run homer in the bottom of the 10Th! Unbelievable! They have a remarkable record this year in extra innings. I guess you can never turn off the game, and give up on the buccos. They just never give up.
Looks like I may have sold my scooter. Had a guy come look at it today from Farrell. Dawna and I are going to have matching blue scooters. And they both go 60 miles per hour! Pretty cool. We will have loads of fun on them. Our other new one should be here this week sometime.
My Dad is having back surgery on Wednesday of this week. He will be at Montifiore Hospital in Pittsburgh. Please keep him in your prayers this week. The same surgeon that did Dawna's back is doing his. I will be there with him on Wednesday.
Got to go watch the Pirates now. Maybe I will watch the whole game today! Later.......
