Bob and his two little sons!!!! Milo and Tyler
Tyler came to visit over Christmas. He is really a nice young man and because
he is bigger than his dad we forget that he is only 12. He and Milo spent some time together
playing Tyler's new wii game. We enjoyed him as we have not seen him much in
the last few years. Just thought I would share a picture of the 3 of them.

Merry Christmas


Merry Christmas!!! What a beautiful day, even though it is raining. We have so much to be grateful for.
The Matt Parker's was here for Christmas Eve dinner and our usual pagent in costume of the manger scene Santa ringing the bells as he left and running upstairs to see if he filled the stockings.
Rob and Breanne came by in the morning about 11:30 in the morning and and left Emeri and Broxton then they left for the hospital. At 7:15 Christmas Eve they gave us a new great grandson. Matt and Katy were here so there was alot of excitment.

Matt and Katy had some last minute things to do so they left the babies with us so we had 6 babies to love for the day. Tyler was here for a visit and he really helped with all of the little ones. He has turned into such a nice, gentle boy.

After everyone left- (Rob's parents came after Emeri and Broxton to take them home to their own beds) we went to the hospital to meet Kaius. what a beautiful baby boy. This of course is not unusual as all of our babies are beautiful.

We miss all of the rest of our family but you are in our thoughts and we know you will all have a wonderful day. Love you all.

A view of Christmas long ago!!!


This was about 1954-55. Notice the very large TV in the
corner. The tree was decorated with large cookies that
we decorated. The pattern for the cookies were taken
from color books and then painted with a paint brush and
frosting. The boys would put all of the cookies out on
Christmas eve before they went to bed and Santa would
bring a tree and on Christmas morning low and behold there
was a decorated tree with all of the packages underneath.
It was a fun tradition and lasted for quite a few years.
Now all 3 of these little boys are grandfathers. Where did
the time go?????

Elves and Faries












Our Christmas tree with all of the silly elves.
They just sit there and look around. I think that they like it
because they are up high and can see the whole room.





The faries, Charlie and Liley ( Annie and Jack named them), brought a
small fairy Christmas tree. We woke up one morning and there it was.
I am not sure how they got it though their little fairy door but it is really
pretty and they look like they like it too.













The Nutcrackers didn't see them either but then I am not
sure they could tell us anyway.

New baby!!!!!!!!

Today is a special day!!!!!Our 25th great grandchild entered the world. Her mommy and daddy are Cashel and James McCrory. Her wt was 8lbs 9 oz. I am sure Cashel will send out announcements. Chelsey has put it on facebook for those who read it. Hopefull pictures will be coming.
Luke Parker and new baby Cali Faith have the same birthday only Luke is 2 and Cali is brand new!
Breanne is due soon so we will be patiently waiting to hear the news from her. She hasn't found out whether she is having a boy or a girl. As she has one of each either will be wonderful.
Hope you all had a blessed Thanksgiving.
