Happy Holidays. Life has been busy here on our small farm. I have spent the last months cleaning up and enjoying life here. There are all kinds of birds here, the mountains are beautiful, there is so much potential for our land, and I just love it. We are going to start a gardening unit study sometime in January. The kids will all have their own garden and they will do all the work themselves. We had a nice Christmas. It was simple with a nice dinner. It was just us, and it was a wonderful day.

We always start out Christmas by reading from Luke and then praying. After that we open gifts. We got to talk to everyone on the phone which was great. It is good to hear the voices of all the people that we love during the holidays, especially when they are so far away.

I wish everyone here a Happy New Year! God Bless!
