Christmas was merry

Manfred cooked the traditional turkey, stuffing, yams, cranberry, etc.  It was so good. And we have been eating leftovers since. Yum!

  

 

  Best Holiday wishes to all. 

Yesterday we had pizza while watching the end of the NFL regular season.  Our 2 teams are #1 in the AFC & NFC.  Ergo, both have bye next week, and home field advantage throughout the playoffs. 

Christmas preparations

The Tree and the house are decorated, Bill is here, Manfred is baking stollen and thawing the turkey. 

  All is good. 

Let it snow

Woke up to snowscape in Port Orchard yesterday. By noon it was mostly gone. 

  

  

Today the weather is very dark & grey.  Thank goodness for Xmas lights. 

We are working on Xmas decor, tree, etc., and Xmas cooking. 

Bill is coming on Monday, Dec 23. 

Unthinkable loss

  What the ...?  Last week, when Denver was winning magnificently, it wasn't broadcast in our area. This week, on Thursday Nite FB, we were all set to watch them win at home against an inferior team, but noooooo.!??!  Electrocuted by silly San Diego in Bronco Bad Land.  27-20 - Pathetic. 

Kathy and Doug came and got their truck, but Bill didn't see them. !

Back from SoCal

We went to Tijuana, Mexico, because Manfred broke two of his beautiful new teeth. After our trusty dentist had fixed them, we went to stay with best friends Charles and Diane Fitzgerald in Encinitas, near San Diego. Then we all drove to Palm Springs, where Bill Jones had already arrived from British Columbia. So we were now 5 happy people driving on to Indio, where we had reserved a WorldMark penthouse apartment, with 3 bedrooms, 3 baths, and a hot tub on the balcony. 

 

We had a very nice time, enjoying the resort and the spa. The highlight was attending the Palm Spring Follies -- a traditional follies show, but all the performers were over 50 years old. It was a fab show,

 and Manfred got a hug from one of the "showgirls."
