~Merry Christmas~ :-)

I was sitting looking out the window this morning about 9.

The snow was falling so slow and it was one of those lazy

snowfalls where the flakes just dance and float in the air,

like they don't know where to land. I was thinking back to

when I was younger and woke to the Christmas smells of

turkey and pie and rushing downstairs to open gifts. After

breakfast of course. Then the clean up to prepare the

dining room for dinner and to finish up everything so that

we could eat as soon as the Gramma's got there.

Later on when both my grandfathers had passed Dad always

went and got my gramma's. First Gramma Wales, Mom's mom,

as she liked to ride so Dad would pick her up first so she could

ride the extra to pick up Dads mom, Grandma Woodworth. Once

they got to the house, dinner was put on the table and we would

eat. Sometimes Dads brother, my Uncle Lawrence and Aunt

Dorothy would come down from Iron Wood to spend Christmas

with us. But it was a special day and of course the dinner was

perfect and delicious.. After while 'us women', would have to

do the dishes my dad and uncle and the grammas would talk

and most times dad always took a nap.. As much as we all ate

no one was too very energetic as I remember :-)

But they are great memories, and I remember them, its nice

how more of the good memories stay with you than the bad.

There are times when I think of all the good memories I could

have made, but didn't, but I cant fix past ones, but hopefully

looking ahead I can make even more good ones... This year

went by so fast, I remember writing back last January, just

like I do every year, where did this year go? Already a new

one is going to be here. Time flies so fast and things can

change in just the blink of an eye, and I for one plan to make

the most of those blinks! :-) As fast as this year went I sure

must have blinked a lot! :-)

This GORGEOUS WEEBLE wishes you a very Merry Christmas.

I hope y'all had a great day, Thanks for all the greetings and

calls and special things, mean a lot to me.

Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear? love ya and THANKS!

Always, Lois ****

"God Bless You" is my prayer today...

I'm honored to call you "friend".

I pray the Lord will keep you safe,

Until I write again....
