Christmas Eve in Idaho at Kari and Toby's

We celebrated Christmas Eve supper with

our traditional stuffed sandwiches and

soup, lovingly prepared by Auntie Kristi.
Then we headed off to church where Kristi's

choir sang in the beautiful cathedral.

Marigold loves Christmas!

And Grandpa loves Marigold!!

Christmas Day in Idaho!

Pandora loves her new video
And Socrates was nuts about her

pink mousey. The cat toys

were a big hit!!

Toby was Santa for our Christmas

gift exchange!

The happy family!

Kristi loved her new toaster oven!

Christmas dinner was a joyous occasion, with

little Marigold sitting in her high chair

for the first time. She watched her Mom

happily for the whole meal!

Then Dad entertained her. What a

good girl!

Christmas with Kate and Joel

Kate and Joel's house looked so festive and

cheerful! What a fun holiday visit!!

Here Kate and Joel open Lily's gift (she won't

be born until March, so she needs a little help!).

I crocheted her a little blanket.

Jim got a new Corvette model. My, this

one looks familiar!!

Christmas with Kate and Joel

The weekend before Christmas we

headed for Bonsal to celebrate Christmas

with Kate and Joel! After some shopping

we stopped for lunch at this delightful

French restaurant for a delicious lunch.

Then Kate and I visited the art gallery where she

is showing her beautiful artwork. To see more of her paintings,
