Merry Christmas!

"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government shall be upon his shoulder; and his hame shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace" - Isaiah 9:6




Merry Christmas to all of our friends and family! We're having a very nice, peaceful Christmas out here in Benson, AZ. Last night we spent an evening with friends listening to karaoke... Richard is big into karaoke! Then we went to the midnight service at the local Catholic church. It's a very small, quaint church, with a lot of charm. And the service was literally at midnight! It was a nice way to welcome in Christmas.

Today we participated in a potluck Christmas dinner at the San Pedro RV clubhouse, which began at noon. The clubhouse was packed and the food was delicious! We met a few other RVers and were invited to sit at their table, where we met a group of very nice people and enjoyed their conversation and the meal. We brought a grape salad...I got the recipe from a friend in Naples last year....it was really good!

Now we're enjoying the afternoon...I'm reading and watching TV and Ed's watching football. Emma's playing with her new toy that she got for Christmas...it's a tennis ball attached to a rubber pull. We gave it to her last night and she had almost eaten the tennis ball within 15 minutes! We also got her a fuzzy blanket to keep her warm while she's sleeping with us on the bed, as well as some dog treats and a cheddar spread for her food. She had a pretty good Christmas!

Tomorrow we're thinking about going to a large weekend fleamarket located in Tucson...we haven't been in that direction yet, so we're anxious to go...should be fun!

Happy Holidays and safe travels!
