Subject: wonderful Christmas

7 children and their mates-12 grandchildren and 2 old friends visited with us Christmas eve..we had a great time eating and gabbing and I always open my gifts while they are here..then Christmas day went to youngest Daughters for Christmas dinner-actually we all ate around mid-afternoon..most of us bought things to add to the dinner.
Next day visited some of the children..then Sunday night it snowed and snowed..just got all cleared out today.It is a light fluffy snow this time and it looks beautiful even though it is knee deep.Hope to get some more visiting done tomorrow because Thursday I will be busy-I still do a day volunteering each week at the hospital.
I certainly hope you all had a great Christmas but I know like me many of you have prayers for the poor souls in the devestated Asian countries.The horror for the survivors wil continue for a long time.I hope none of you had friends or relatives visiting the tourist areas that are in ruins.

Hi Tina,

I enjoyed reading about your Christmas celebration. What a large gathering. You are certainly blessed to have such a lovely large family.

We also opened our Christmas presents on Christmas day after dinner. It was fun to watch everyone taking turns opening their presents. One of my favorite gifts was a nightgown (red with white dogs).

I have been enjoing all the goodies that I receive for Christmas. I'm sure that I have gained a few pounds but usually do every year during winter months. We cannot walk when the sidewalks are slippery. You had so much snow, we were lucky only 3 inches this last storm. I'm sure we are due for a big one soon. We are having a warming trend this week. My daughter is on vacation and we have been out shopping to find good sales.

It is so sad and devestating to learn of the terrible tragedy and lives loss in the disaster in Asia. Our hearts go out to those who have suffered this unbearable event. Many of us around the world will be praying for them.

Take care and hello to all chat readers.

Phyllis
