John and I Last Christmas

My Oldest daughter Paula, she is the second from the oldest. We have six children now all married. We will have 19 grand children around Christmas time. thanks for checking out our blog. If you double click, the pic gets large enough to see. christmas time we will try to get a pic of all of our kids and grandkids and their spouses. and put it on our blog. The pictures of the house at the bottom of our blog is the house we sold in Connecticut last March. carla

My bedroom with smaller Keva. I am posting these pic's at the request of our children living in Pennsylvania and Connecticut so they can see our new home. We are so glad to finally be in the house. much to do but we can see a light at the end of the road.

I bet you can't guess what these are!

The car wash shower (:

Steven our son did all of our plumbing, infloor heating, built and customized everything. He also put in all of the propane, septic, and the most difficult parts of the home. He is such a sharing and genersous person. Our youngest son Brian (dancing and singing later in the blog) also helped Steven every step of the way. We are so blessed to have such great kids. We moved here to New Mexico mostly because our sons were here. John retired early because of a bad back. He made sure we got the best tub and a shower that is like going through a car wash. A shower head for me (short) and another complete set for John. Thanks Steven and Holly for letting him come to our home so many times.

This is as if you walked into the house from the front door
