Christmas Pictures and Mom's Birthday


Before school let out Tim and I entertained at Kennedy Powell.  The kids were amazed to see Mr. Lightfoot rockin' it out on his electric guitar.  

next.....a wonderful lunch with friends



On December 18th, My "Steel Magnolias" group got together.  We have been meeting since we were all separated from working at Jefferson in 1999.  Jez, Sue, Billie and Bev!   Love you so much.


Jez inspired me to get crafty so I copied her artistry and made gifts for the sweet nieces and nephews this year.  




That smile says it all!


The first stop on Christmas day was in Rosebud at Tim's Dad's house.   I didn't get  a lot of pictures.  We had a fun dinner and Chinese Gift Exchange with Joe and Patti, Trent and Jamie, Tracy, Paula, Kevin, Keith and Paula's Dad and Aunt.   
  



Pattie's new toy this Christmas was a MARSHMELLOW Gun!  She surprised us all.  



Erasten hugging her Scooby-Doo Color Book.  

Erasten kept finding more stuff in her bag!




Now onto our 2nd stop at Janice and Frankie's.



Brad and Bella enjoying her first Christmas.
A few days later we got to see Erasten again for a swap of dinner for haircuts by Trent and Pattie.




We can't forget that Sasha and Blossom got some special treats from furcuzzins Ruby and Baxter.




Mom turned 84 on January 12th.  Her niece, Debra flew in from Oregon for a special visit.  We hadn't seen her for almost 30 years.  She is mom's sister's daughter.  We had a great visit.  I think we need to plan a trip to Oregon!










Well Audrey didn't get to get to Texas for the official holidays but she will be here next weekend. 
I'm sure we will have some pictures to add then.
