Brittany is 15 years old today. She is our oldest granddaughter and keeps busy with school, friends, and church. I understand that she is going to get her driving permit this next week . Where have the years gone? We hope you have a wonderful birthday Brittany and we love you very much.
Today Don is celebrating his 76th birthday. Don is in TX right now where I'm sure he is enjoying much warmer weather than here. Don and Roberta have a house in Hutchinson as well now so we get to have them around for a few months of the year. We are so glad that the Lord brought Don into our family and we love you Don and trust you have had a great birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Avery is celebrating her 9th birthday today. Avery is full of fun and energy and when I see her with her younger cousins, she is quite the leader. She is very creative(like her mom) and such a sweetheart. Avery, we hope you have a wonderful birthday and we love you very much. Wish we were there to celebrate with you.
Today Trey is celebrating his 11th birthday. Wish we could help you celebrate Trey but will have to do it from here. Trey is a 5th grader. Trey is a good helper and has a very tender heart. Trey has shown a heart to want people to know Jesus and Trey - that is a treasure. We love you and trust you have had a great birthday.
Owen is 9 years old today. He is such a fine young man with a very inquisitive mind, very intellegent, has a quiet spirit, loves sports, loves to spend time with his cousins, and is one very special grandson. Owen, we wish we could be there to celebrate with you but since we can't, we want to wish you a special day and we love you.
We had everyone home for Christmas so we had to move our dinner out of the house with 41 to feed. We decided our church basement would be the best for us so that is where we set it all up. Our granddaughter Avery passed out as she was going through the buffet line so I was so concerned about that that I forgot to get a picture of everyone eating at the tables.
We had a buffet line with turkey and ham and all the trimmings.
Lots of chocolate, cherry cheesecake, and pumpkin pies
Then we moved on to Greg & Susan's house for opening the gifts.
Our son Roger supervised the gift exchange to keep it orderly:)
Caleb & Brooklyn were taking care of cleanup of all the wrappings.
Roger honored his grandpa by wearing the red socks that Dad always wore at Christmas time.
