Sorry Fellow Bloggers but we got busy with the holidays and my camera had to go into the shop for repairs. Now we are back on track. Before the kids started to arrive, we spent some time at the Usery Mountain State Park. I took this picture after we hiked to the Wind Cave. Are you getting tired to desert pictures yet? There are lots more to come. Then we started to get ready for the holidays. What do you think of our improvised tree that we made with wreaths we got at Michaels? I made Darcy spend a couple of nights helping me cut out decorations. I think it turned out great. This is a picture of the whole gang taking a break from playing games and enjoying a beverage at the golf course. This was probably the best holiday ever. On December 30 we put the last one on the plane for home. After lots of tears and 8 trips to the airport, we are ready to get going on the next decade. Our love and best wishes to all of you.
