Holiday

Dear Friends, it has been three weeks since we updated our blog!

We certainly had a wonderful break from writing updates and now it's time to let you in on just a bit of our Holiday  

Fun on the ferry :-)

The Christmas Story

Christmas morning/afternoon 

We also had lots of make-believe fun, like our outdoor Charlie Brown Christmas tree 

each leaf on our Christmas tree had a story about why it was so special to us!

this turned into John's first ever white Christmas 

we learned how to have fun and stay warm and dry in the Seattle winter.... family bowling!

did you know there was such a thing as Angry Bird Bowling?

there was lots of family cooking sessions which we thoroughly enjoy 

Christmas baking a new generation

Instead of flying home, we took the Amtrak train

36 hours on the train is a fantastic way to relax and enjoy the scenery 

We were in the last car on the train... surprisingly there was no caboose!  

We arrived home well rested and grateful for the time we spent with family and friends celebrating Christmas.  

We are now back in the office wishing you all a very happy new year filled with blessings!
