HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL

We celebrated the new year at the Johnson's house again. I came to stay for the weekend with Stacy and spoil that new grandson Derek, who arrived on the 26th of December. Stacy and Ben and the older kids were at a party that Vance's band was playing at. Ben chaperoned the party and Stacy went over to hear the band play at 11. I was home with baby Derek and Anny their 18mo. old and the neighbors 7 year old, Dodge. Anny was playing in her cupboard, I was folding clothes, Bill was up in bed, and Dodge was trying his hardest to stay awake when the clock struck 12. Big Whop!!

We hope the new year finds everyone HEALTHY AND HAPPY. Last year was full of change for us in so many ways, but we realize that we have grown and done things that were hard for us at the time, but we are still alive and kicking. Bill is doing well, so far, and is holding his own, which we are very grateful for.

We have been very blessed to have so many friends and family around who love and care for us. We know that each day is a blessing in our life, and we are so grateful for the many blessings which we enjoy.
