Lunch with the Johnson's

What a nice treat! Matt and I were able to enjoy a nice visit and yummy lunch with Eric, Robin, and their adorable 2 1/2 year old daughter, Camy.

Peaceful and cozy Sunday evening

What a nice way to spend a Sunday evening....a crackling fire in the
fireplace, a good book "Christmas Hope" (a gift from a sweet friend),
a warm, soft robe and Matt relaxing nearby on the love seat. Ahhhh...

Duchess and the snow

Duchess is not sure what to think of the snow we received in Lubbock
on Christmas eve. She made a path in the snow that avoided all the
large snow drifts. We tried showing her how to go through the drifts
by running and jumping in the large drifts, but she would just stand
at a distance at stare at us like we were nuts.

Guess who's coming to town?

What a nice treat! Lanette's granddaughter, Trina, came to Lubbock for the day. Trina treated me and Lanette to a yummy lunch at Logan's Roadhouse. Yum! Thank you Trina!

Home for the holidays!

Went with simpler Christmas decorations for our home this year, and
quite pleased!! We even found a great spot to highlight the Christmas
cards we receive from friends and family....our tree!

Looking forward to spending the Christmas and New Year holidays at
home with our family and friends.

Cactus Cuties

What a nice treat! Lanette took me and Matt to see the Cactus Cuties at the Cactus Theater in Lubbock. What a nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon....in the company of Lanette and my wonderful husband listening to Christmas carols and hymns sung by adorable girls (and 2 little boys) ranging from 5 to 17.

Lanette's Christmas tree

Wishing all of you a very merry Christ-mas and a Happy New Year!

Lanette's little 3-ft Christmas tree looks so cheery. We had a fun time decorating it and it hardly took any time at all (what a difference it is decorating a 3 ft tree vs a 6-7 ft tree!)

Merry Christ-mas!!

"By grace you have been saved through faith and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God." Ephesians 2:8

Jesus is the true reason for the holiday season.
