Christmas 2018

Yesterday, we took my brother to the train and today I took my sister back to St Louis. Below are photos from Christmas as well as earlier in December. But I made it through another Christmas and after tomorrow, I've made it through 2018! I had a lot of wonderful things happen this year! I got a job I loved, I got to see my brother twice this year, (normally it is only at Christmas), I visited my sister in Maryland. (I had never been to Maryland before) and I got to go on my first, ladies only, camping trip. All in all, it was a good year! Hope yours has been good too!

New family member

Yesterday, my daughter & her boyfriend, drove to Purdy, Missouri to get their new baby. An adorable Goldendoodle they named Molly. They brought her over to meet us. We love our new granddog! Welcome to the family, Molly!

Holts Summit Christmas Parade 2018

It was a chilly 34 degrees but sunny day for the Christmas parade.  This year there were 3 marching bands.. I admit, I'm like a little kid on Christmas morning, when it comes to marching bands. I love the energy of the bands! The grandson made a haul on candy! Great parade & we finished it off with hot chocolate to warm us.
