MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL FROM UNCLE JOHN

Need some Family prayers for Lucky Dog!

She is in the doggie hospital. They put her on an IV today to re-hydrate her and try to make her better. Please keep her in your thoughts for the next few days.

Our New Puppy!

Well, yesterday we picked up our puppy that you all heard about at Christmas. He is a black great dane named "Tank". He is 7 1/2 weeks old. From what I can tell so far, his favorite activities are eating and sleeping. But he has played around a little and has been a lot of fun. He is starting obedience school in January and we are currently working on potty training! What a handfull!!! I am going to try to upload some pics for you to see. Shaina

Merry Christmas Card

Ashland University does a Christmas card that you may have seen from someone, but I think it is beautiful so I wanted to share it with all of you. Watch above the M in Merry Christmas for instructions. If you have speakers there is beautiful music and later the Ashland Choir sings, if you don't have speakers it's still a pretty Christmas Card!

Get Better Soon

Barb, sorry you're having knee problems. Hope you can get fixed up soon. Be very careful going out in this snowy, icy weather.

More Pictures!

Here are the last of the pictures! Sorry Eliora the ring pics were fuzzy.... my camera stinks on close-ups! Hope everyone had a great time. I did! Ate way too much but it was all so good!

More Pics later....

You all will have to wait for more pics. My knee got the best of me today finally. I am laid up for awhile.

Pictures from Family Christmas Weekend

As promised here are some pics from the weekend! I will continue to post more until I have all the good ones up on the site. Be sure to check back often!

Hey Family!

I had a GREAT TIME! Too much fudge, lots of great treats from everybody, fantastic chili and pizza. Loads of fun watching the "youngsters" playing Trivial Pursuit for the 90's! Glad Mark could join us on Sunday. (Sorry you all didn't have a chance to meet him) Can't wait to see the pics from this weekend! Thanks John and Cindy for letting us all invade and camp out. Oh, and great job on the traditional "cousin's pics" kids, we elders appreciate it. Hope to see you all again for the next big family doin's which will be Max's Eagle Award, followed by yet another big family doin's, Eliora's wedding. Only two of the grandkids left to marry off!

Fudge Time!

Well, Shaina reports that she has made her pan of fudge and also some brownie cookies! Umm! My pan of fudge is ready too, along with some cashews, chocolate stars and of course chocolate covered cherries! Hope everyone has been abstaining from chocolate for a while to get ready for this chocolate fest! I heard that Cindy and John have been preparing the chili! Gotta have some REAL FOOD in there somewhere! Can't wait to see what goodies Barb has planned, she mentioned bringing some treats too! It'll be a food filled weekend!

Rhylee

EVERY ONE REMEMBER TO WISH RHYLEE A HAPPY BIRTHDAY ON THE 13TH.

Christmas Get-Together

Well, more news!

On other family news, everyone has been asking if Eliora is bringing Mark so that we can all meet him before the wedding. I still don't have an answer yet, I guess we will just have to wait and see. You all have been asking for details of the upcoming event and that is still in the planning stages too. So far this is what is known, date is set for March 14, 2009 so mark your calendars accordingly. They still have yet to secure a minister. Eliora is sporting a pretty ring which I am sure she will be flashing for everyone to see. Hopefully Mark will be able to accompany Eliora and meet the family.
