A Great Christmas and now A New Year!
Ah – a New Year is here! 2013 ended with lots of fun and family. My parents’ house was filled with people, and we had special guests, Joe and Michael, with us this year. Joe works in Saudi Arabia and recently rented an apartment in Oklahoma as a “home base.” He has to leave Saudi approximately every 12 weeks for about a month to get a new Visa, etc. He went to college in Oklahoma and has friends out there. Michael lives in West Virginia and in November became engaged to Rachel Broughton! My parents had all their grandchildren (except Matt who lives it Portland, ME) and great grandchildren, stop by the house on Christmas day.

So far, 2014 has been snowy and very cold! We have had about a foot of snow and last night was around 17 BELOW Zero! (I would still rather have the snow and cold than 90 degrees and humid!)
A heat wave is coming for tomorrow! It is going to be in the 30s!
Happy 2014 to you all! I wish you all Happiness and Good Health!
Debbie 🙂
