We got to meet "the girls," our daughter's family's chickens, a couple of weeks ago and gathered some eggs. We celebrated a bit of early Christmas with son and family last week in Colorado, complete with snow. We are home again in Arizona and celebrating with our two daughters, son-in-law and granddaughters. We've also been enjoying delivering a few cards and goodies to friends and neighbors. I am looking forward to the fun and challenges starting in the new year.
