Christmas Party 2008

Happy 61st birthday to my Sweethart and obviously another great Christmas Party. I think everyone had a great time. It's good to have all our friends together at this time of year. It is always a fun opening to all of the activities to come in the rest of the month. This year was our first party in the barn and it was nice to have the extra room. As cold as it was outdoors, it was too toasty in the barn. We had to turn off the heaters upstairs. At least no one was cold. The shuffleboard was a hit even though Kim didn't like the way I played. I know, I know - I am too competitive.

I also want to offer my thanks. Thanks to Kevin, Kathy, Jeanie and Jim for assuming the planning and organizing of this party. Without them it wouldn't have happened. Thanks them if you enjoyed it. Thanks to all who made it and to those who couldn't. Thanks to everyone who used this Christmas party to honor me with some birthday gifts. They were all appreciated My hope is for 2009 to start a road to recovery for our country. It will make everyones future look brighter. With the good lord willing and the creek don't rise - we'll have lots of opportunities to get together in 2009.
