Merry Christmas from Valparaiso, Indiana.  I am at Nora’s for Christmas and let me say it is a beautiful winter wonderland here!!  I will write more later.  We are expecting a houseful!  Four out of five of us sisters are together this year.  We are waiting for the cabulance service to bring Jeanie to us any minute now.  She will be able to stay with us for three precious hours.  More last minute things to do in the kitchen.   The salad needs to be done…

So I wish all of you a very merry Christmas.  I hope to be able to pull out my lap top later on and write write away!  For now I leave you with these three photos!

Winter wonderland.  Photo taken from Nora’s back yard:

Have a great day!
