Merry Christmas!



Our first Christmas with our new son in law and soon to be SIL. We enjoyed the day and are so glad for a closed sun room with AC. The temp's were 44C/110F with awfully hot north winds. This weather really gets to me, but it couldn't spoil our day. We are thankful to God for a year full of blessings and many protections. We are thankful for good health and good jobs. HE has been very good to us!
We think of our friends who are dealing with trials in their lives and hope they know we are praying for them.
We wish you all a blessed Christmas and a happy NEW YEAR!

It is so good to hear your thanks for all the good things in your life. I hope the new year brings continued blessings to you and your family.
I just walked the dog in 7 degrees F....I wouldn't have minded just a little of your heat.

Congratulations on your wonderfully expanding family! It's so nice that you have even more people to love and celebrate this special day with this year! Merry Christmas to you and yours, Betty, and it sounds like you're off to a great start for a terrific New Year (another wedding?)

Hi Betty,

FIRST of all... you look WONDERFUL - congrats on your fit looking self. that represents so much dedication and self control. I'm so very proud of you.

SECOND - congrats to your beautiful daughters and what an exciting season for all of you (oh MY, the way I visit there will be grand-babies when I come back haha!) I pray the Lord blesses your family!

THIRD - it was quite the year for you, and I thank you sooo much for recaping in one post, the way I only make it here a few times I could safely come once and see it all. Just KIDDING.

If you EVER come back to Canada for a visit you let me know, I'd love to meet you in person. You're such a positive and encouraging person and I think the world of you!
