anniversary

Our daughter Mary, husband Phil and our granddaughter, Carmen helped us celebrate our 63rd anniversary on Dec. 27th. Thay came the day after Christmas and we had a good visit including this dinner at our favorite restarant an Italian one called Tutto Bene and it is true as the name implies, Everything is good. We had our friends and neighbors, Bea and Ray Knodel with us for New Year's Eve. This is a tradition that has gone on for more than35 years. Our daughter-in-law, Margy got home from her holiday travels and we are looking forward to seeing lots of pictures of her visits with both grandsons and their families in San Francisco and Portland and New Years with Anna and Bryan in St. Paul. We hope everyone had a great holiday season and we have hopes that 2009 will be a really good year.
