The last few months have been mostly pretty good for us, I’m pleased to say. Both of the girls and I were briefly sick with a fever about a month ago. If it was a flu virus, it wasn’t too terribly nasty. Then the girls both came down with a cough, which lasted for a good week or so. Nevertheless, life has been pretty good to us and we feel very blessed. (Well, the only other gripe I can think of at the moment is our stupid flat-roofed garage that seems to leak every single winter no matter how much work we have done to it. But other than that, life’s good.)
We spent Thanksgiving here in Livermore and celebrated with a family meal over at my parents’ house along with my sister and her family. Christmas was also spent here in Livermore. Our family had a little celebration on Christmas day opening presents that were mailed in from Janet’s out-of-state family, and because my sister’s family have been traveling we haven’t had a get together with them and my parents yet (although we certainly will). Just after Christmas, we were once again invited to spend a couple days visiting with our good friends at their cabin up in Dorrington, and we all really enjoyed playing in the snow and having some fun conversations. Here are some photos covering the last couple months:
Dan and Janet,
I can’t tell you how much fun it is to live vicariously through your site, with all of its commentary and pictures. Your daughters are growing so big so quickly and always have big smiles on their faces. I can’t wait for my twin grandchildren to be born and watch them grow up. Keep up the good work with the site as it always brings a smile to my face. You are truly blessed.
Thank you, Marsha! Very kind words.
