COW POOP  Yes, it's been a while since my  last post.  Thank you, all, who have been sending pictures of your Thanksgiving, Christmas preparations and misc. goin's on.



 



Timmy stopped by on his last day in New York.

Nancy and Barry at Barry's parents' home.



Kerry with their holiday guest.



Cathy, Jim and Erin were in California visiting Matt and Emily for the Thanksgiving holiday.



Carol and Jimmy always have a crowd.  Steve's wife, Karen, was in the hospital that day having given birth to a baby girl the day before.  Congrats to them!



We ate out on Thanksgiving and Andrew was thrilled with the gingerbread house---he wanted to take some candy, he told me!  (His knickers got pulled up high on his legs!)

The day after Thanksgiving we went to town to see the Christmas tree lighting ceremony.  This was his reaction when the switch was pulled and all the lights on the huge tree came on!



Tommy & Judy's son, David, was invited to attend a fitness event at the White House on Dec. 1 (as part of his job with the Nat'l. Academy of Sports Medicine).





Carol's annual trip to Kodey's Tree Farm.

The tree all decorated, "Misty" settles in right under a stocking with a Cardinal on it!

Looks like Kerry and "Carly" are down for the count!

"Mary Ann, watch your language!  This is a family event!!"







Just kidding, of course.  Mary Ann was very gracious about the ornament she chose.

Linwood and Mary Ann are ready for Santa!

Andrew and Allison's cat, "Cubby" thought he was going to go to Disney World with them.

Some Pictures from the REDNECK Christmas Party

We are going to take up a collection for Pi Man's dental work, which looks to be extensive!

Oh yeah, those fish stories get bigger and better every time you tell them!

Sam and Noelle

Roy is always the life of the party!

As you can see by her shirt, Lacey is not an animal activist:)

The deer even got into the Christmas spirit.

Pi Man did look rather frightening, but we don't sceer easy in this here neck of the woods!

Billy got into the redneck theme.  He, Carol, Dawn and Samantha all came in overalls.

Linwood loaded up with desserts!

Thank you Nancy and Barry for hosting this family event for so many years!  This was their last event---what great memories!
Time to pass it on to someone else.

Cathy is enjoying the poinsettia from Erin and flowers from Matt and Emily (they have a little Thomas Kinkade house on top that you can use every year).
