Assignments:

While Dean helped prep and paint the dining room, I was given the task of making winter headbands.  I could do my part while watching Hallmark movies.

A walk to the park....

I think we were manipulated.  Lol.  But the rest for G&G turned out to be a blessing.

Wheat sugar cookies....

Close to a total fail, but they still got eaten.  A better choice would have been to go buy flour, but the kids had a ball.

Fixing light switches of fan and lights

All of the guys teamed up to get the three-way switch from fan to light.  Success #1.

Merry Christmas 2019

This was an interesting year for me.

Merry Christmas

 Christmas Eve traditional Joy School dramatization.  We had to go through it twice because we had two Mary's.

Hair time/reading time

Spending time with the littles, Dean has done super well with the noise and commotion.  The two little girls have loved spending time with him.

Sleeping on the summit

Lunch at the Beaver Creamery

After visiting with family we are on our way.  Do we know how to slow down and have fun?  Can we change our lifestyle to seriously stop and smell the roses?

We will stop at an undecided location we want to explore and attend church wherever we are.

Wood's meet up in Beaver

Yesterday we stopped in Dixie and were able to spend time with all St. George siblings and Mom and say hello to Rob's family as we pulled out.

Today, we changed our plans and instead of going south to four corners will take I-70.  Wood siblings met at the creamery in Beaver for a Christmas family lunch.  It was so nice to see everyone again.

We exchanged gifts.  Lori outdid herself with a portrait that we didn't get to see but I can imagine is wonderful.  We have such amazing families.

The Adventures Begin

Last stop before leaving town was to clean out my swimming locker.

Let the adventure begin

Ready or not .....

We need doors on the cupboards because everything looks so messy, but it will have to wait.  It's time to try it out again.

Still have lots to do but its livable, and if not there is time to fix it as we go.

Make ahead, find just in time .....

As Dean was looking for items to take to Sterling, he found ornaments made in January for this December.  Too bad most gifts are already out.

Wrap up gifts .....

2019 spotlighted crochet hangers as gifts.

Chain 14.  Afghan stitch until long enough to cover hanger.  Embellish.  Wrap.

Cousins, enjoying time before we leave

During the past couple of years I have been able to help T&C out with their littles as C gets her nursing degree.  We have had a lot of fun and been able to get to know these littles better.

But now we have one more in the area and so we invited cousin to come over for the day.  All that money spent on toys and this is the favorite spot of the day.  LOL
