Christmas Eve & More...
a friendly game of Farkle after Christmas Eve dinner..
We spent Christmas Day with Jeff's parents and family. 18 seated adults for a terrific beef tenderloin dinner. It was really a treat watching their grandsons (not Wesley yet) sled down their hill; even Wesley's Great Grandma did it. Way to go Velma! Sorry, no photos from Christmas Day, as I couldn't spoil the surprise that Jeff's parents were also getting a new camera the following day.
The following photos are from our new Canon; a very nice Christmas gift - all gifts were great. I've spent the past several days learning so many new things and registering waranties on-line. I think we need a vacation to absorb and learn all the features of our gifts. We're learning what our precious new grandson is communicating to us as well. What a blessing he is to us all.
Buche de Noël made by our friend Sylvie:
We attended class together for a school year in Grenoble, France. (Well Joe didn't, but we met him there) Thanks to Elizabeth & Sherri, we get together annually - WOW, 34 years already. The only thing missing was the other half of the class today. We hope to catch up with them next year. A bientôt! 
and then they look look smug:
