Have had some busy, good days. We picked up Mary and Joey at Mark's on Wednesday after Joey's business meeting in Atlanta. They were tired--twenty four hours of travel and for Joey immediately a lengthy meeting. They were introduced to our new home and were pleased. The next day we went shopping and Joey did tasks around the house. Mary helped decorate the tree (it isn't really a Charlie Brown tree, even though some think it is!) Yes, a real tree is preferable, but for us they are too much bother and too much work. Ann and Mike came over to eat supper (or dinner--take your pick) and it was enjoyable. Then today Jaimie met Mary and Joey at Mark's again and the three headed for Alabama while Lynn and I headed for South Carolina. We look forward to seeing them again and all our family on the 26th for our Christmas celebration.
Tonight we had the delightful experience of seeing Oakwood school's annual play "Anne of Green Gables". The play lasted nearly 2 1/2 hours, a tremendous effort for the leading characters. Anne stole the show not only because of the length of her parts but also for her acting ability. We were glad we went.

We were glad to hear that the Medlens arrived safely. Wish we could see them while they're here, but it's quite unlikely. Sounds like you're settling into your new home quite well.
I woke up early to a beautiful white landscape of about 3-4 inches of new-fallen snow. Really puts me in the Christmas mood.
Anne of Green Gables was highly celebrated at our house years ago...Shelley and her friends would have "Anne" parties and watch the movies all night.
Hello to all of U. Lynn and A. Mim's family...glad you are having holiday time together!
