Hey Chris,
Wow Santa certain treated you and Holly well. Very nice gifts you got. :D
Hi Chris and Holly I am so very glad that you had such a wonderful Christmas, making memories of your first Christmas together. That is the Christmas that you will always remember. I remember our first Christmas was the Christmas that John got me my diamond and we got engaged!!! You guys really got a lot of nice things and it is so great that you got to spend it with family as well. I miss those holidays when our whole family got together. Unfortunately those days are gone and now John and I have to make our own memories.
My Uncle Bill passed away last week so we had that as well this last week. He was diabetic and went into insulin shock and passed away. It was a very sad thing to happen the week before Christmas. I feel so sorry for his immediate family. He has two daughters and a son and his wife. They had been married 62 years so it is really hard for her.
You have a great day and take care. Hugs to everyone. John Debbie Mya and Allie
