Our friends Mike and Vickie came to visit a few days. We ate good snacks, meals, shopped and played cards together. Considering that Vickie's sister doesn't look too similar to her and I don't look too similar to my sister, funny how people always think we are sisters. Same hair, glasses, and our "must have" favorite tee shirts from Eddie Bauer. Vickie was teaching me how to knit dish cloths. Fun, huh???
Considering how frightened Mason was of Buddy when they first came to visit in October, then again in December. You can see they've become fast friends. Buddy loved to walk with Mason. Too cute!
Look, Santa did make a visit on Christmas Eve.
Your mother created the above collage of this past Christmas Holiday. Unfortunately Sean and his family were not able to attend, but our love is with him and all his family members.
Your mother and your Nana has made so many Christmas Stockings for each member of the family throughout the years, and you can see a small portion of them hung near the window. We enjoy meeting with all our family members anytime we can get together and love each and everyone of our children, their spouces, and our grandchildren. Thank you all for the "Kodak Memories" and for building the Forsloff Family Traditions. Let's all have some fun this Christmas Holiday Season!!!
Today is December 13, 2008 and we had a good Pre-Winter storm on the Oregon Coast last night. Today the waves were high and strong and you can see the clouds have much mositure. It was very cold when I was taking this video...44 degrees and the wind chill factor made it feel much colder. I love the Oregon Coast and the changing moods of the ocean.
Mom always knocks herself out when it comes to decorating the tree, and with all the tree trimmings and her collection of the Walmart Annual Teddy Bears. This tree is beautiful! Yes, the tree is artifical with it's blinking white lights, and with it's colorful fiber optic stands always ever changing in color and intensity. 
Mom always likes to decorate the house when it comes to the Christmas Season. You can see the stockings are hung (just the two of us now), and her Christmas Bears are out. Guess one of the bears is the Mama Bear and one is Papa Bear? We are looking forward to spending our time together as a family. We love you all and we feel very blessed!!!
