We took a few days of work during christmas time. It was nice to sleep in and just relax for a few days. Lowell of course was working in the shop. He installed a window that came out of Rod and LuAnns house and got his tractor out to bring some wood to the shop.

We had christmas dinner at Wes and Deanna's. Dean and Lyane made everything from brisket and sweet potatoes to candied apples, literally pounds of fudge and gallons of eggnog. Watch out when they come to your house to cook!!! Everyone was back out our house on Saturday and we got in some rook, aggravation, chess, and chinese checkers. We also celebrated Dean's birthday on Monday. Oh ya and Lyane and I got to the second hand store while they were at our place and Lowell and Dean worked on plaining down the old wood from our beam to make a hutch.
