No White Christmas here this year, but lots of LOVE |
Dear Family and Friends, Welcome to a new decade!!!!!! Are you excited about 2020???? Do you have any big plans ahead???? We are gradually putting some trips on our calendar --so hopefully, for George and me, it will be another wonderful year together.
As hard as it is to find time these days to get people together, George and I both managed to 'catch up' with our families during the holidays. We spent Thanksgiving in Florida with George's son and family --and his daughter visited us on Dec. 21-22. I was able to get all three of my sons here at the same time (which is not easy to do)... We all gathered here on December 22 (for a big meal at a local restaurant plus time for fun and fellowship here at our home). As I've said many times, having all 3 sons here at the same time is such JOY for this Mama.
Today --as I begin to catch up with some of the things which have happened in our lives the past month or so, I will share with you some pictures of our FAMILY CHRISTMAS on December 22.

After a delicious meal, we all headed back to our home for some fun together... Here I am opening up a gift for us from son Bert... You can't tell from this picture, but this is "Notty"---He's a Tree Sculpture named The Spirit of Nottingham" --and he will hang on one of the big trees in our yard. Below is a better picture of Notty. |
