Merry Christmas. A Year In Review

None of this Happy Holidays

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Luke 2:8-14
And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid. I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is Christ the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger." Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,
"Glory to God in the highest,
and on earth peace to men on whom his favor rests."


Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!! Another years in coming to an end. This year has been filled with Joy, Trauma and Heart Break. The year began with a great spring. Lots of fishing and Warm. in May we left Harleys Diner on bad blood. Jess and I both knew it was time to move on. Jess went to work for Superior Services on Eilson Air Force base. Where she is now a supervisor. I went back to work at Sophies Station hotel as a cook(yeah No management!!!!!!!!!!!!). We had a great time with Bob and Sam(Jess Dad and Brother) fishing for sockeye and exploreing this beautiful state. Summer was finished off by a visit from Mom and some more fun treking. That is where things got interesting..........

On September 9th I was attack by a coworker with a Butcher Knife. I was hit twice in the head and once in the arm. One would say that the hand of god was with me that day. The people that came to my aid and helped me in my time of need I will always be greatful. Still waiting for the trial. The next hearing is January 7th. This whole experience has made my relationships with people more important. Most of all God, My wife and My kids. I has also made me see what a world we live in.

In November we swerved to miss a man walking down the highway. We ended up under a highway sign with the Trailblazer wedged under it. No one was hurt. the Trailblazer was totaled. A week later the Ford broke down. We since have bought a 2004 Suburban. which we are very happy with.

We would like to thank everyone for the gifts that that blessed with. We would also like to bless everyone that these hard times have hit. A promise of a better tomorrow.
Mom and Jerry the girls love the Hoodies and Apron as well as the other gifts.

Dad and Sharon. The girls have not stopped playing with the Barbies that you bought for them as well as the new videos and games.

We would especially Like to Thank Jan and Criag and Bob for all the love and support throughout this year. We look foward to seeing you soon.

To Rob Ken and Mhari. May the blessing be upon you. We look foward to celebrating L's coming into this world. We pray for your Health and Happiness. Peace and Love!!!!!!!!!

We would also pray for Grandma Dolly. May she have a speedy recovery and be Cancer free.

To anyone we have not mentions. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Big Kahuna, Jess, Syd and Meghan.
