Christmas 2009

Went to Uncle Rodney and Aunt Shirley's for Christmas eve - we all forgot our cameras, but had fun, enjoyed visiting with everyone, Ryan got a chance to see some cousins.

Christmas Day we went to my Brother Brian's house, Shari put on a really nice dinner, and we had a great time. Ryan and Erika had not gotten to see each other in quite a while, so it was really nice. Shari's parents were also visiting from Montana (getting away from the cold weather, good idea!) We had a wonderful Christmas, took Ryan to the airport this morning, he was glad to be getting back to his own home and friends.

Home and Family

I have great kids! All of them, I love them so much. Ryan is home for a visit, good to see him, he teases me like no one else, but I still love him. Cathy is going to come over today (and I hope spend the night) after she gets some rest from taking Shelby to MN yesterday. Dianna is coming to visit for a few days, she has been going to school for Digital Photography, she wont be able to visit that much in the upcoming months. Just one question???? What did I do with my camera....can't find it. :(

Beautiful day, beautiful friend, beautiful tree

Hilary Lewis took pity on her "Christmas challenged" friend, and came over and decorated the tree and mantel today. We had fun, was amazing to see Hilary in action. Note the spoons in the mantel - what a great idea, and she did not even have a plan, just used things I had. Thanks Hil!
