Well, as Charlie Brown says, another Christmas has come and gone... This year was great but a little exhausting: two full days of family, food, and fun. It was wonderful to have Dan's eldest relative, Aunt Essie, finally meet Kira. They hit it off really well, as you can see! Kira was not so sure about Santa Claus, real as his beard may be.... He is a local postman who donates a few hours every year for the kids down at the post office -- what a nice relief from the mall Santas, eh? The whole holiday was terrific though, and Dan's teaching schedule provides us with so much time together as a family during the winter break. It is such a luxury to have such time together -- we are so thankful.
Anyhow, 2008 arrived with Monica and Kira barely staying awake for the midnight hour. It was a quiet and lovely evening spent at home snuggled up by the fireplace.
Hope all is well with you -- give your loved ones a snuggle from us! And check in with our pictures... there's a new album in there! click here http://picasaweb.google.com/monica.moran215
