  7. Betsy, such a beautiful picture of you and George!!! All the trees at Biltmore are beautiful but I must say "Your Tree" stood out as the most beautiful. The reason I say that is it has a "warm glow" emitting from it. As a child I grew up with the colored lights, and although the white are pretty, I prefer the colored.

    Your little great grandaughter is precious. Merry Christmas and may God bless you and George with a healthy new year.

  13. Betsy, Biltmore is indeed a beautiful place...any time of the year. Christmas is special for sure. Vivian Lee looks like she could be a handful! As for great grandchildren, it will be a while for us... Our oldest grandson is only 18 and he'll start college in late 2019. Assuming 4 years of college and a couple of years in the real world, I will really be an 'oldster' before I have a chance for any great grandchildren! Merry Christmas! Take Care, Big Daddy Dave

  22. The Biltmore trees are amazing, but your tree is just as beautiful. Vivian Lee is growing up so fast! I'll bet she and Veronica will be best buds, being so close in age. Do you think there'll be a Valerie in the future? :)
