Too Snowy

It's too snowy for the cats to go outside.

So, it's time to snuggle up to Joey while she is reading, and

do their best at helping us with chores!

New Years Eve Bonfire

I am not ashamed to admit that I got the idea from Marla and Kevin's neighborhood in Mesa, AZ

It was so chilly that people were standing more than sitting, but that did not slow down the laughter! 

Christmas in Arizona

I was fortunate to be able to break away from work and Joanne and I headed to Arizona for Christmas weekend.

Santa was so sneaky that he snuck all of these presents in while Paris was gaurding the tree!

I have to admit that I was jealous that Marla, Kev, and Jordy's new puppy Bailey loved right up to Mom and Dad, and would never let me hold her.



 

As would be expected, with only one grandchild on our side of the family - Jordy made out like a bandit.

It was a relaxing morning, with an excellent breakfast to top off opening presents.
