Christmas Surprises!!

This was the best Christmas in years! David surprised us Christmas Eve by knocking on our door. Well, he didn't quite get to the door. I saw lights in front of our house and looked out the window and saw a man get out of strange car. He walked like David and I thought it was him. I ran into the living room and said to Ken, who was rocking Kirsten in my rocking chair in front of the door, that I thought David was out front. He said, no way. I opened the door and peaked out. I wasn't sure, but then when he walked up the side of the yard I knew it was him. I ran out and almost tackled him. It was a good thing he is a strong man. Here are some pictures from Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

Thanksgiving Week


We had a wonderful Thanksgiving Week. David arrived from Washington DC on Wednesday evening and stayed until Sunday morning. It was a great visit. Thanks Dave for coming. This is a picture of David and his nephew, Christopher at the parade.

We spent Thanksgiving with Mom and Dad in Rigby. David and Katie Downey were there with there two adorable little boys. The first is David J. playing a computer game with Brenton, his brother and the 2nd is a picture of Carter, their youngest. He was talking and smiling at me.

We went to the Pocatello Parade of Lights Friday night. This is a picture of all of us at the parade. The guy in the hat is a friend.


David and Grandpa Tennant. We met him at Golden Corral in Twin Falls, ID for lunch. They had a great time teasing each other--one old Marine to one young Marine. They are two of a kind!
