Happy New Year One and All! Imagine my surprise when Dave said somethng about this being New Years Eve just before supper. I guess I'm sort of out of it. I think my response was "No it isn't." No resolutions from me. I'll just keep tryng to do what I usually keep trying to do.

Two more days till back to school.

Happy New Year to all of you! We're probably going to have a quiet evening at home like we usually do. We're not into crowded noisy places.... Haven't found a New Year's resolution yet.

Hi Everyone...not sure if this will work but...here is a picture of me with my grandchildren...I am having so much fun with them. Like I said before, it is so different being a Nana then a Mother! They will be here until Tuesday evening.
Happy New Year to You...may all your dreams come true in 2006! Happy Thoughts! 

Happy New Year to all. We celebrate it tonight @ church via satellite to the othere side @ 7pm our time so we can all go home and sleep. Looks like a trip to Peru this year and Isreal next. Anyone been there and have any tips? The mission house (pregnancy crisis ctr) finally got up and running two days ago so we can be tax exempt this year. The house looks really great and the funds are rolling to to keep it open. It has been a job remodeling this old hodgepodge house into offices, conference rooms etc. We had an ultrasound machince donated to us too but now will be legally considered a medical facility so I guess I'm now a board member of a medical facility, wow...hmmmm...... just keep our minds on the mission and it'll be ok.

happy new year!! my resolution is to be a cool surfer dude. i don't know if it going to be harder to lose the in-your-face edge or to learn how to surf. at least i've got the dude thing going okay.

I took the little ones out in the snow today. Caleb was here a couple of years ago to play with us in the snow and this was Camille's first time. It was so cute. Our snow is crusty so they could walk on top. Great for pulling around in the sled. It is so nice to be able to appreciate the newness of something! It is certainly different having little ones running around the house again! Right now Caleb is crawling around the rooms playing doggie with his Aunt Su....pretty amusing watching 29 year olds crawl around too. We had our Christmas today, with presents and big dinner.....some of us are ready for bed soon! And I don't mean babies!! Happy Thoughts................and holidays.

Merry Christmas and Happy Hannukah! Did I spell that correctly Lori?

The boys headed home this afternoon. I heard from Kev a few minutes ago and he's home and settling back in. Roads were not so good for the first couple of hours. We have 30 or so inches of heavy snow and it's quite windy out. Another storm expected on TH so we're concerned about whether we'll be able to get over to VT or not. Dave is planning a day at Stowe if we do make it over and we're planning to get together with some friends from our former neighborhood.

Ski and snowmobiling has been waiting and now they're all set. It's great for the area's tourism. The kids; being out of school this week are probably all thrilled .

Christmas day was fun. We all enjoyed each others company. Dave's mom had a good day. We were all pleased for her.

All of my kids and grandbabies will be here tomorrow...around breakfast time...I am so excited. We will have our Christmas on Wednesday morning. It has been unseasonably warm and rainy. We still have snow on the ground. There was so much water running down off the fields into the ditch in front of our house that the town crew was out here at 5:45 am digging ditches. There were 4 town trucks and probably 10 guys out there watching each other....holiday pay! Don't think I've ever seen so many of our town employees together that early in the morning! Neil has decided to take a week vacation to visit with the grandbabies....I think he is just as excited as I am. We are getting a woodstove installed in our basement tomorrow, too....he's been wanting to do backup heat for years and has finally done it. I wish everyone a wonderful New Year with lots of special times with your loved ones. Cherish the moments! Happy Thoughts always.....................
