Hello All

I am deep in my mid Winter doldrums. I am not a winter person. From November through the end of March I want nothing other to sleep ALL day long and I would if I could. I find little joy in anything during this time. My poor winter baby ( who will be 17 on January 8th) is the only time I felt half alive in the winter. Though he did have to deal with a very drowsy mother. I think I overcompensated with him when he was a baby. Being born 2 weeks after Christmas in the middle of a Colorado winter and the 10th Grandson in a row without any girls. (There are still only 6 girls out of 23 grandkids) I think we were the only ones to be excited to see him. So I called him "The Baby" until he was almost 4, I don't think he knew his real name until he was 3

Ain't he cute?

Though on a better note ,that is the winter I discovered the Internet. I have had the same email address for 16 years. Though there were so few people on that I don't think I actually got a non spam email for about 4 years. LOL

I have some RR commitments due. One is due tomorrow and I haven't even started. ( Don't listen to that Gerry!!) I know I can get it done I just need to get off my sleepy butt. I have even hit all the stores ( Joann's , Michael's, Hobby Lobby. Wal Mart and 3 other local stores)and haven't even seen anything I wanted to buy. Man !! I must be in a slump

Here is a pic of the kiddos at Disneyland. I'm off to take a nap

Christmas

Hello All

We had a nice Christmas here at home. On the 23rd we drove t Denver to see my husbands family, Father, 8 of 10 sibs, 14 of 19 cousins plus various inlaws. What fun! By the time we got to Denver all the snow was off the streets from the blizzard but there were 4 ft drifts and plowed snowbanks up 12 feet high.

We came back here Christmas Eve, a 4 hour drive, even more fun as it was snowing again when we left.

But we has all of kids with us so it was worth it.

Hope you had a Merry Christmas.

Here are some pics of the kids with their loot and even some smiles out of the boys!!

Later,

Lauri
