We have been scanning pictures(slides) for family history. We found some very cute old ones. Kids haven't changed much, just aged. so this is a little stroll down memory lane.

The grandkids were having fun twirling the chair. Would have made me sick but didn't seem to affect them.
The neighbors made a snowman ---he began to go small,small,small and lean, lean , lean.. cute huh!!!!!!!!
This is a picture of some of Maries' collection in her "dead" room. The cougar is the newest one. Actually she is pretty handsome.

We had a family dinner tonight at Chesleys'. The food was great, company fun. We took pictures. We sure miss the other 3 kids and their families. Were we bottomless pits we would go to them way more often.
