Santee and Buttonwillow













Our convention season just ended. Filled with special days, we attended Santee I and then some of Santee II and went up to Buttonwillow for the first time for the weekend to visit our daughter. It was wonderful to see friends at Buttonwillow that we don't get to meet with at Santee. At Santee we had several of our young kids start out. It was a bumper crop with ten young kids just our field!

Special Days








This past weekend our family and Lynda Carol and Brittney Hightower traveled up north to attend our daughter Layne's baptism. There were six young people who were baptised at Avila Beach. We attended Layne's Sunday meeting and then drove across to be in Sally and Gretchen's gospel meeting in Bakersfield.

January in San Diego









This January we had some unseasonal warm weather so we did what most San Diegans do when the weather is warm......head to the beach!! We visited with our cousins from Minnesota (Meyers and Ritchmeyers) who came out to catch some of the warm sunshine in January. Good times with guitar and piano and singing on Sunday eve. It was wonderful to catch up with relatives and enjoy fellowship.

Holidays at Home











This Holiday season we stayed close to home. On Christmas we had Leona Diaz and her boys over for some games and fun. Layne and Justin came from up north and Damon stopped in for games on Christmas eve. New Years we had breakfast for supper and invited friends to join the fun. David made his famous blueberry and chocolate chip pancakes and Clarks, Najjaros and Gibsons chipped in with food and games. We feel blessed to be surrounded by friends and family.
