Christmas 2011

This was a very interesting Christmas season. Fun, sad, surprises, drama etc... I saw it all. It started off with my grandpa's funeral, seeing my older brother after 3 years, meeting a new brother I never met until last Thursday, thinking about my dad's passing 2 years ago and finally Christmas with my babies Max and Mckenna. As they get older Christmas a lot more fun. I love watching them write their Santa notes, put carrots out for the reindeer and cookies for Santa. Then watching them get up in the morning to see if Santa came. Christmas with the kids is the best!

Goodbye Grandpa. 7/24/1921 - 12/14/2011

My grandpa's 90th Birthday this past July. We will miss you and I love you. You were a firecracker, wise man and smart ass! I will miss all your stories and the way you teased Justin for us not being married. I'm glad I got to hug you one last time yesterday.

This was an awesome Thanksgiving. We had a full house which I love. It took some years to get a house full. This is because we bought the house about 5 years ago, no kids, family all over the place and trying to figure out how to get everyone together for the holidays. So this year we had my sister Pam and her boyfriend. My favorite neighbor Denise and her friend Nuri. Justin's family; sisters Ashley and Chelsea, his mom Leslie and then the Brown/Greene family. It was a lot of fun playing my favorite game since childhood Tripoley, having drinks, food and company. Best Thanksgiving ever!

Thanksgiving and a lot to be thankful for!
