Christmas 2020

It's March and I'm just now posting Christmas pictures. Arghh!  We spent Christmas Eve at Callaways.  We had  a newly married couple with us this year!  Congrats Heather & Rami!


Elaine brought her gifts to our house this year.  Fun was had by all!

We waited to do Christmas with our kids and grandkids after Christmas this year.  We wanted Tommy & Jena to join us.  Can you see the anticipation on everyones faces?



Karaoke was a big hit.

My beautiful grandkids!

Steve's retirement job

It's a good thing Steve retired.  Without him working at the farmhouse, we would be in a half finished house!  He built this table.  It's from a tree that Carl grew in their front yard.  It's a nice reminder of him.  (Steve also laid the hardwood floor).


We have a bear all the way from Alaska.  My friend Judy gifted us with it.



Steve laid the flooring on the deck and installed the rails.
He also installed the screens on the porch - to the right- but this picture is an older one and not showing the screens.


He built the dock.


Beautiful frozen waterfall on the property.



He laid the flooring in the mudroom.


I saw this on Pinterest and asked him to make it for me!
So cute!

He laid the tile in the 1/2 bath.

He installed the barnwood on the stair wall.

We got this barnwood from Jena's daddy.  I cleaned it and Steve put it up.

He hung the pantry doors, closet doors, bedroom doors and bathroom doors.
He is quite the handyman!

Heather & Rami Tie The Knot!

Heather and Rami tied the knot!  We had been waiting impatiently.  He's a keeper!

We had lots of food.



And drink!




Friends and Family!




And of course feeding each other cake!  Congratulations!

Lots of Birthdays!

Disneyland

Before Thanksgiving we made a trip out to LA to see Tommy & Jena.  We had lots of fun as usual.  We went to the BEST escape room!  The special effects were awesome. (What else would you expect from La La Land?)


 Jena and I  made a trip to the beach.


We went to Disneyland to experience Christmas!  But first we had to visit the new Star Wars area.  It did not disappoint.




The line to see Chewbacca was too long, so I settled for a picture of his back!



 I apparently made a good choice to sit this ride out!


Love Birds!


The castle all decorated for Christmas.



I think Woody is Steve's favorite character.
