Christmas in P-Cola

We took Gramps and Mimi out to Cock of the Walk to celebrate their 64th Wedding Anniversary on Christmas Eve!

We spent time with Bob & Deb, Nicholas, Natalie & Nicole

We celebrated Christmas at Grandma & Grandpas including Jim & Denise, Paul & Jeanne Marie and Jamie.

A Tally Christmas

Lindsey did a great job playing the flute in the Homeschool Band's Christmas recital. She is even teaching the cat to read. The church youth group had a Redneck Christmas celebration with wacky games, lots of moon pies and RC colas! And cold water could not keep Lindsey and Samuel out of the pool. Old lady Ginger is enjoying her new place.

Moving In To Our New House and a Birthday right before Christmas!

On December 9th we closed on our new house and started moving in with Grandma & Grandpa's help (See November blog for "before" pictures). We had tons of help from our church family over the next couple of days moving everything. Samuel had his room set up first and is the first to jump in the frigid pool. Lindsey wears herself out but has a bed to sleep in.

The next day, the first morning in our new house, we somehow cook Samuel a "Cracker Barrell" style breakfast for his birthday. He gets lots of gifts, but his favorite is the 55 gallon aquarium and accessories. He celebrates with his youth friends from church at Moes and at Logans with the family.
