Christmas 2014

Well another year has passed and it is the joyous time of 2014. A time to be with loved ones and friends. it does not have to happen only this time of the year , but all year long. Remember life is short so enjoy all you can when you can. We did not get to have all the family here this year but we hope next year we can all be gathered together if only for a short time.
As you can see I started taking pictures at our home on December 3 2014 as pat has the tree all decorated and ready. This year she was a little slow as we replaced out tree of previous years with a new one and this took some looking for us until we found the right one for us.
Did not do a lot outside this year, but Ryan helped get our candy canes up along sidewalk. Hope we can do much more next year.
Hope everyone had a Blessed Christmas and hope the New Year will be one filled with happiness.
