Whew! So far this holiday season has been a full one. There have been people over at our house constantly. We had 3 volunteers come down last week to spend Christmas with us, and then a few days ago two more came from out of the bush as a nice little surprise. Moreover, Chelsea and I attended two weddings one on Christmas Night, and the other on Boxing Day night (Dec. 26). Work has been fairly slow since it’s the holiday season and schools are out on vacation still, so we’ve been “showing our face” , “gaffing” a bit with our co-workers and then heading home to hang out with our guests. Anyway, this morning the last two guests that showed up left to Town to run some errands, but we will hang out with them tomorrow on New Year’s Eve (or Old Year’s Day, as they say here) and then head back to Linden to ring in the New Year. It’s been really great having all of these friends here in lieu of family. They are all a great support and I think each one of us benefited from each others company. This blog will mostly be pictures from our Christmas experiences, weddings, and even a little photo shoot that was did at this abandoned aluminum factory a few blocks away. I hope you like them.
And we wish you all a belated, yet happy Christmas, and a wonderful and prosperous New Year!
