Happy New Year

Yikes, how did it get to be January 6??  We had a nice relaxing Christmas/end of the year season. We don't have extended family here, so we don't have tons of extra Christmas get togethers.  We did have a fun evening with some friends, "ugly sweaters" and all!!  These people have shown us what it's like to be a servant.

Christmas Eve Les and I went to our church's candlelight service.  I love that service!  We hold our candles high in the dark singing "Silent Night, Holy Night".  Love it.

Christmas morning is with our kids.  They came pretty early this year - ready for lattes, breakfast and finding their stockings!  Yes, Santa hides our stockings.  We kinda had to go right into opening gifts - we were having Christmas dinner at my parents about 1:00.  Les had the prime rib roast going on his Traeger grill all morning.  Yummy.

My sister and her hubs decided on Tuesday to fly in on Christmas Day (Thursday)!  They wanted to surprise our mom and dad, so I picked them up at the shuttle drop-off right after our Christmas dinner.  They stayed with Les and I for several days - it was great to have them around.  My younger brother and family were also here for several days.  They come every other Christmas.
Only pic of my sister!

We had a fun New Year's with friends - our customary New Year's.  We were gonna celebrate at east coast time, but we were having too much fun so postponed our celebration til about 10:00 our time.  Les did good! and we had lots of fun.  Dear, dear friends.
