Christmas 2010

It was great having so many of my children home for Christmas. Jeremy and Krissy couldn't be here but everyone else was. I picked up Angela in Minneapolis on Dec. 19 and she is here until after the New Year. Cristy and Cindy drove up from KC in some bad weather but we were glad they made it safely. Tim, Amy, Ben and Ashley surprised us by arriving at 9 a.m. Friday morning when I wasn't expecting them until later that evening.

We enjoyed some fun games at our place Saturday night with Warren, Carol, Brett, Cindy, Cristy and Mom. And then Brandon and the kids joined all of us out at Mom's on the 26th for Christmas at the farm. It was good times together but as always the time goes by too fast.

God blessed us with beautiful frost laden trees and bushes. It truely was a winter wonderland.

Happy 2009!

I can't believe Christmas is over the the new year is already here. It was so wonderful to have all the kids home for Christmas. We had such a great time. The kids got Curt and I "Rock Band" for our PS2 and they had a lot of fun opening all the songs for us. Curt and I haven't rocked out on it yet but this evening we are planning on it.
Last evening we had a really great New Year's Eve party at Hillcrest School with our church family. We had good food and fun group games. It was nice to celebrate together.
I haven't made any New Year's resolutions because I never keep them anyway. And I always have the same wishes and desires but don't have the will power to follow through with any of them.
I hope all of you have a wonderful start to the New Year and may God bless each and everyone!

My Winter Wonderland

We had 3-4 inches of snow Saturday night and when I woke up Sunday morning snow was laying so beautifully on everything I put my coat on over my pj's, doned snowboots and went out to take a picture of the house.
