Vicki and I send you all our warmest greetings and hope for a very merry Christmas with your family and friends and a New Year filled with blessings. It continues to amaze me just how quickly the time between Thanksgiving and Christmas is, I am nowhere NEAR ready for Christmas yet. I have been so slack in sending out Christmas cards, which I really do enjoy doing, and I have not even begun my almost famous and looked forward to Family Christmas Letter that I have put out for the past several years. What in the world has happened? I just cannot seem to get my self going and as Christmas day gets closer and closer I feel more guilty each day because of my laziness. I hope none of you are having this same "sickness" that I have.
We had a GREAT time visiting Mom out in Fort Stockton, Texas during the Thanksgiving holidays and enjoyed some wonderful food and family time. It has been years since our family had been together and that, to me, is what makes the holidays so special. That time with your brothers and sisters, friends, Moms and Dads, and the memories of long ago Thanksgivings and Christmas days. Priceless!
Now we head into Christmas, parties, and again family get-togethers. We had our church decorating last Sunday and afterwards a wonderful meal with our members and guests. It was so much fun and our church looks so beautiful. The photo at the top is some of our great decorating work! I will try to add a few more as we go through this little get-together. I am still learning how things work on here, at least I am TRYING to learn!
We do not have any big plans for this Christmas, no trips and even the Schaefer Clan Christmas Party has been cancelled this year. We hope to meet up with some of our old friends during this holiday season as they come home to visit, that is always fun.
Merry Christmas to you, and may God bless you and your family in the New Year 2010!
