Christmas 2010

Christmas this year as been a memorable Christmas considering that it was full of "firsts" for Cheryl and I. 

This was our first Christmas as "official empty nesters". It was our first Christmas without our traditional Christmas Eve Party at Grandma Pinkies. It was our first Christmas to have lots of concerns for health and wellness for our family. A nephew in the hospital pending surgery and a daughter and son-in-law who were deathly ill with a bug.  It was a first Christmas to spend several days with our two granddaughters Adyson and Lexi.


Here is Livin' the Dream Memories:

The Christmas Season Begins

This year, Cheryl and I decided, okay it was a unilateral decision by Cheryl to take our family photos and develop Christmas Cards for close family and friends.  So after enduring the preparations for the photo shoot, the actual photo shoot, the selection of what photos we liked, and the selection of where to go for Christmas Cards we have finally accomplished our task.  Well almost completed we still have to mail the Christmas Cards out. 

For anyone interested in doing the same Shutterfly has a great website to assist you in creating your own Christmas Cards.  Go to  http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/christmas-cards.  We enjoyed the ease of the site and the ability to drag several of our photos into a collage and we were done.  Thanks Shutterfly. 

Of course Cheryl will not let me show off the card until you receive it in the mail.  We know that you will enjoy it.  Merry Christmas to all and to all a Goodnight.
