CHRISTMAS EVE IN LARAMIE, WY

The first photo is of my four beautiful grandsons and the second one includes my reluctant but sweet and lovely grandaughter!

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL

The Christmas train in Canon City, Colorado - we all went but Poppa who was not feeling well.

EBELSKIVERS & SNOW!

Grandpa cooking everyone's favorite Ebelskivers, we also had brown sugar ham!

The view from the dining room.

This is what you see when you open the front door!

THE WRAPPING IS FINALLY DONE!

DINNER AT SENIOR MANUEL'S IN COLORADO SPRINGS

We ventured out on a cold and snowy night and the meal was worth the trip!

CHESS ANYONE?

Linda, Alex & Ryan playing chess on an afternoon when we are taking it easy and enjoying the season.

ITZ WITH GRAMMIE & POPPA TODAY!

JANGA ANYONE?

CHRISTMAS IN MONUMENT DAY 2

Just hanging out, eating too much and having fun. Games in our future tonight. Grammie took a nap this afternoon!

MURPHY IS FINISHED!

Dick and Tom Witt (our wonderful builder) installed Murphy today. Dick did all the work but needed more than my help with the heavy lifting and so we called Tom. It really looks wonderful, Dick did an awesome job.

The photos are after Murphy closed and I did not lose an inch of workspace in the room, everything went right back to where it was before. The only difference is that I can no longer walk behind the work space and we have a WONDERFUL queen bed for extra guests!

MONUMENT CHRISTMAS '09

New wreath for the front this year, gotta love the Nell Hill post card & ribbon!

Who else do you know that has a Nova Scotia Santa with a MINK coat and a lobster trap, thank you Sharon!

In between the the kitchen and the living room.
