Some Christmas photos

We're just now getting around to posting some snapshots from Christmas... plus or minus a few days.  We had a wonderful time, and we hope everyone else did, too. Herethey are, in no particular order:

 

Christmas visit with Mum and Dad

Snowy morning at Hemlock Home

Allison and Thad visit

We had a wonderful visit with Allison and Thad.  Unfortunately, Chris wasn't able to come along, because he was keeping an eye on their basement, which had been flooded over the past few days.  On Friday night, we had a nice dinner, with Zach and Kate joining Allison and Thad and Debbie and me.  On Saturday, Allison and Debbie went Christmas shopping, while Thad and I held down the fort at home.  Thad helped gather kindling from the yard, and we all had a great time, visiting and getting ready for Christmas.  Here are some photos:

Taken two weeks ago.

Party on, dude!

Thad wanted to help carry this empty carton out to the burn barrel.
Couldn't resist taking the photo!
