We had a wonderful family Christmas. Chris and Ada came on the 20th, Mike on the 23rd, Dave, Do, and the girls, and Jason, Ann, and Steven were all here for meals and more. Chris and Ada took charge of a lot of the cooking, Jason did a Mexican thing, and we did the big turkey. Hannah joined us on the 1st and she and Mike will do something out of Hanna's new Indian cookbook. Mark, Monica, Luke and Hunter came on the 30th to ski and will depart on the 3rd. Chris and Ada left on the 29th, Mike and Hannah will leave on the 5th and 6th. Whew! But we are blessed with fine company!!
Steven was the hit of the season. Always happy, ready to learn new tricks from his uncles, with lots of hugs for Gramma and Grampa!
I'll post some pictures and Mike took a lot so I expect he will add some more.
Again, we hope your Christmas was full of good feelings and your new year rewarding in many ways.
