Merry Christmas & Happy Birthday Tom, Derek, & Jesus

This is a wonderful exciting time of the year as we celebrate the birthday of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! Ken & I wish all of you a wonderful and joyous Merry Christmas!!

Yesterday, some of my brothers, sisters, nieces and nephews all got together to have lunch and celebrate Christmas. I was so blessed to have my second oldest Grandson, Derek, to meet us at the restaurant. He is a student at Trinity University in San Antonio and I had not seen him for quite some time.

Below is a picture I put together of Ken and I and all 13 of our Grandchildren beginning with the oldest at the top and around clockwise to the youngest.


On December 23rd, our Grandson, Thomas, celebrated his 20th birthday! Happy Birthday, Tom! We love you!! Tom is Steve's son and is a college student at Princeton University. We are so proud of all of our grandchildren and love them all very much.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!! WE LOVE ALL OF YOU!!
