Rember, we all looked like this once!

Enjoy the season!

Transitions

Finished up the last of the grand kid visits and drove south to catch a flight from Orlando to Portland.
First was the Holiday program at Spencer's school.

A gathering of Christmas trees.

Then Molly came back to the trailer for the last sleep over.

TV viewing seems to bring out an urge to bridge the space between two recliners.

The next morning it was off to soccer practice.

Molly had last soccer practice before the first game which will be next year.
Spencer was practicing his heading technique.
Then, in Portland.........

Today I went wood shopping with Sara and Emil who were in town to stock up for Emil's new enterprise as Luthier Extraordinaire.

While plain on the outside........



There were treasures galore within.

As you can see, more TV viewing inspired contortions.

Newest addition (the one on the left).

Tomorrow Nina and Grandma visit Travis and Kim for some pre Christmas cookie making.

Enjoy family and stay warm.
