The Holidays Are Here!

We had a great Thanksgiving! Mike's family and cousin Jarom were here for the day. We ate well, played games, watched videos, and just visited. Everyone helped out, so the day felt quite easy for the hostess.

Mike's eldest two stayed overnight and helped put up and decorate the Christmas tree. It was so fast and easy that they may have to come help every year. The living room really looks festive - yet simple.

All of my gifts are bought - just need to wrap things up. When our Christmas letter is finished, we can just enjoy the holiday programs around the valley. We will miss the Tab Choir Concert, because we were not chosen to get tickets....all those hours, days, weeks, months, and years of service mean nothing where tickets are concerned..drat!
