Christmas Pic's

We had a fast and wild Christmas morning. We told Alex that he could not go downstairs until 7 in the a.m. and that he could only open his stocking before 8. I saw his light go on around 5;30 and he crawled into my bed around 6 and then at 6:59 he headed down stairs. Was good and did not get me up until 8. I was hoping he would do good since I was not crawling into bed until around 3am. Santa was very good to all of us this year. It was a year of trucks, guns, and cloths. Hope everyone had a great Christmas.

Train show pics

Alex, Grandpa and I went to Traverse City for a weekend. We went to have Christmas with Grandma and pa Morris. They were there for the opening weekend of the Train show. Grandpa is a train member. It was pretty amazing on the detail the guys go to for their sets.

When you sat in The big Thomas you could run the little one.

Some pic's of Grandpa's section

Lu Ann was also there running her son's train.

11-13 Work/fun at Dad's

Well it was a busy time, but we
also had fun. Three of my
brothers flew in and one drove
over. We had an old fashion
work party. We cleaned out the
closets, garage and misc. places
it was a lot of work but we had
some fun also.
Dana, Ron, Tony
Dad, Chris Alex, Randy
Todd was down but not in the picture.

Ron and Dana stripped the
wallpaper and hung new paper in the
main bathroom. What a "fun" job
It turned out GREAT.

Alex was a lot of help also.

We wanted to play some cards at

night. Dana had to look up the

rules on his phone.

Dad caught on film. His hand in the

m & m's bowl.
