It sounds as if ya'll had a wonderful time! I'da loved to have been there.
We had a nice quiet time with all my girls. Julaine and Joe came down from school the night before. And...... I can finally tell ya'll ... remember way back in September, I wanted to share some good news... but then I didn't, well actually I couldn't.
Ya see, back then, Joe asked me if he could ask Julaine to marry him. I was thrilled for them both!!! I haven't been able to tell anyone, except for my Deb, cuz I was afraid it might get back to Julaine. Anyway.... he finally asked her the week before Christmas! Whoohooooooo. They are a beautiful couple. They are busy making plans.... I'm busy wondering how to pay for it. LOL.
Alyx and her friend from Germany (our exchange student) are doing great. We all had a wonderful Holiday, even though Sofia was a bit home sick.
Let's see, Christmas was on Thursday, we had a nice day watching movies all day (our family tradition) and relaxed a bit more on Friday(except for Deb & Alyx who had to work), then due to wind storms, we lost power at 6:10 Saturday morning. I drug out my generator, (it is converted to run on propane), but the darned thing got all fussy on me and decided not to run. We went without lights or water until last night about 7:00. Fortunately, there is a gas fireplace in the basement so we didnt freeze. (there was also a little cuddlin goin on saturday night ... if ya know what I mean!!)
Merry Christmas to all
And a Happy New Year to you. Please be smart and be careful tomorrow night.
Love Orrin
