Merry Christmas

Dear Family,

I'm wishing each of you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year. The weather has been the topic of conversations around here. The sun is shining but I think it is getting colder out. I'm supposed to go to Eld0n's this evening. Sue's folks are picking me up around five.

Speeking of weather, it has been awful the past few weeks. Snow, freezing rain, sleet and so cold. I was without electricity twice so I just crawled under the covers. It is the first time that I couldn't get something warm to eat or drink. That was a new experience because I always had a gas stove.

My duplex feels more like home all the time. Pictures helped. There are some things I miss about my house but it is all working out. If we could just sell the house so we woulen't have to worry about it.

I pray that God will be in your hearts and homes as we start a new year wondering what is going to happen but as long as we don't lose faith we should weather all the stroms.

With all my love, Mom

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas!




Missing: Angel that tops little Christmas tree.

Reward: The last deviled egg next family gathering.




I have been staying at Grandma's house the last few days, and we've had a lot of fun getting Grandma settled back in, which has meant quite a few scavenger hunts and deciding where all the Christmas decorations should go (Christmas decorating is so much more fun than homework!) - so far we've been pretty successful in finding what we need. The one major setback has been finding the angel to top the small Christmas tree. Let us know if you have any ideas. Meanwhile, we'll share a few of the new places we've found to decorate:

Update: The angel has been found! I gues I get the last deviled egg.


So here's a picture of grandma with the tree (and Angel)


Now all that is left is finding her comb. Wish us luck! and Merry early Christmas to all!

The "Retro" coat



This coat should look familiar to many of you. Originally it was Angie's, then Beth's, Jen's, Becky's, Staci's, Crystal's, (after that I'm not sure), Ethne's, Reagan's, and now Catie's. Did I miss anyone?
