Hello to everyone. I know this is going up later than normal but life got in the way. You all know how that is. So to start off in December I had a Christmas show in Grande Prairie for 3 day. I was very busy and sold most of my stuff and got alot of orders. The 3rd was La Glace fire Christmas party. They always do a big supper and and gifts for the kids. The 5th Kelly's folks where here for supper. We hadn't been with them since the got back from Germany. The 6th we where in town. The 7th Kelly was got all day from 3 in the morning to 6 in the evening. They had two big shop fires. Isaac and Heather got here that day so we went to folks for supper. The 8th I had a house party in GP.  The total order the I sent in was over $1800. I don't get that much but it did make my commission go up so happy with that. The 9th I cleaned house. The 10th was my last show for the year. I did one in La Glace. It was very slow I didn't sell anything. It was very cold out so that might have been why. The 11th we went to folks for dinner. The 15th we where in town I had lots of ordered to deliver so we left the kids at folks place with Heather. We went to folks for supper. The 16th I cleaned house. It was also the school program. The 17th I finished cleaning and we went to folks for supper for mom's birthday. The 18th we met Galen's in town for supper and then went on a horse and wagon ride. Every year they a have Christmas light show that you can go see and you can either take your car through or ride on a horse and wagon. The kids really like it. The 19th we where in town again and again to folks for supper. The 22nd my little girl turned 4!!! She thinks she is so big now! We got her a doll house for her birthday. In the evening we went caroling. We just walked around Hythe and sang to who ever was home. It didn't matter if any body knew them. We took the sled so Kelly pulled the kids. The 23rd I had to go to town to drop one last order off. Came home and made Heidi her birthday cake. She wanted a Fox cake so that's what I did! Took it to folks for supper. Verden's came in the evening for cake and ice cream. They have a youth girl that is one of Heidi's friends. The 25th we where at folks for dinner and supper. Darrell's got there in the evening. Jason's had gotten there about a week before. The 26th we where at folk for supper. The 27th was our family Christmas at folks. It was the first time since we have been married that we have all been together for Christmas. The 28th Kelly did brisket for supper at folks. The 29th I cleaned the house and we went to folks for supper. I made bread and tea for a big Isaac deal the next day. Heather made Haitian for supper. It was very good again. The 30th was the big Isaac Christmas at school. I brought the kids home for nap. We just got home and Kelly got a fire call to a house trailer burning in Valhalla. We went back to school for supper. The 31st most of the guys went fishing and caught alot of fish. Vicky, Mom, and Heather came for dinner. Well that's the months news. Heidi is very happy to be four. She very proudly marches off to Sunday School thinking she is very big girl. Nigel is getting so big. He loves to sing and talk. He plays really good with Heidi. He eats like a true boy about twice as much as Heidi does. He loves dessert and Heidi doesn't eat much dessert. He loves going any where with his dad in the pickup if they go in the car he cries. Heidi likes to stay home and help me. She gets to do dishes once in while and helps dry so she thinks she is big. Well that's all for this time. Till next time.....
