It sure was a full house here this last week and as half. We had the whole family home for Christmas.
It was a blessing indeed. Good food and good company. The only one not happy was the turkey. A lot of boardgames were played.
Coffee and hot coco were used to ward of the cold. Not that it was freezing mind you. The temperature was mostly above zero for the last week. It was more a wet cold. We did have a few flurries for Christmas. So at least it was white instead of just wet.
Yesterday the temperature dropped way down, and the wind picked way up. Then the snow came and we had a snowstorm. It was great. A person should have at least one snowstorm during the holidays I think.
Then came today and we had to say goodbye to Mary & Isaac and Matt & Amanda. Even when they left, it was still blowing pretty good. The bridge was closed to high sided vehicles. But, by the afternoon, we got word that they were well on their way.
So now we still have Dianna & Jordan with their kids, Micaiah and Elliyah. They are staying until Sunday. Pete is home until the 11'th of January, and that leaves Rebecca, Damaris and Caleb home with us.
From our family to yours, we wish you a very Happy and Blessed New Year. And hope that the Lord may grant you health and happiness in 2010.......
.................HAPPY NEW YEAR..........
