Christmas and Thanksgiving 2019....just a bit late

So life has been busy and this post is late...but better late than never.

Thanksgiving was great. I nice normal Thanksgiving with family and friends...as always Denny said our blessing, but first gave us a little history on Thanksgiving..

We enjoyed a little FL holiday fun with our friend Kathy by going to the Manatee River Holiday Boat Parade. We spent a long time at the restaurant waiting on the boats, and then we found out we were sitting in the wrong place...so it was frustrating, but lesson learned....we did get to see some, but we'll have a different plan for next year.

It was a little chilly, but lots of fun....

We spent about 2 weeks in ATL for Christmas and had a blast. It started with Denny and I working at the Delta Holiday Military Lounge...always a highlight of the season. It's so wonderful to be able to serve our Military....they serve us every day, and it's nice to be able to thank them in a small way.

The next day we were able to attend Nochebuena at Yolanda and Jose's....it was truly delightful. So glad we could attend this year.

On Sunday after church I was able to visit at Wil and Donna's for a Christmas gathering...Mom and Denny were at a ball game...it was a rainy cold day...typical winter in ATL.
Was so nice to see Lydia and Joseph as well....so glad I was able to go.

Then a few slower days before Christmas....but, we got to keep Ella one nite and we had a blast.

Anybody up for a little Hokey Pokey??

She was so funny, we had such a good time...
