Well, Christmas 2008 is in the can. We had an unusual Christmas as we were at home, instead of the ranch. It snowed Christmas Eve about 2 inches, the first white Christmas in Ivins, in 20 years.
Cleola, Charles, Alex and Zac were the only ones here on Christmas Eve, for dinner. The kids said that the grinch was here in my place, I have no idea of what they were talking about. We rousted the kids out of bed around 8 am, a big change from Christmas past. We sat and watched K.C. , Mary and Sophie have Christmas via Skype. It was fun to see Sophie play with here new toys. Skype is a Christmas miracle. Ben, Kim, and Annie came over to open presents. The kids got me an appointment with Dr. Carter for a weight loss program, to shed about 1/2 of me before next years holidays. I am grateful. Burke and Treasa are here and it has been fun to have them. Provo isn't that far away but it seems like we don't get to see them enough.

It sounds like a very Merry Christmas. Be glad you didn't make it to the ranch. We were snowed in and had a couple vehicles stuck. Blizzard conditions, but we'll definately never forget Christmas 2008. Merry Christmas

Nice to see you do an update on the blog. It was good to see you at my Mom's. Too bad it was too short. See you this week.
