Christmas is Over/The New Year is Around the Corner!!


Our Christmas this year was wonderful! We had Dad & Mom Holley with us for several days and enjoyed them being here so much! They are so easy to have around. Wendell and Linda came in on Christmas Eve. We all met at Saltgrass Steakhouse to celebrate Dad's birthday. Mmmm good!

Christmas Day was very relaxed and enjoyable. We had a mexican dinner for Christmas instead of the "traditional" foods.
It was really good!

"Santa" blessed us tremendously with gifts this year.


Gene and I both received iPhones (what a shock that was!), the boys were blessed with just about everything they asked for and more. God has truly been good to us and we are so thankful for everything we received! (special thanks to the gift-givers - you know who you are)

Well, two days from now we start a new year. There is no telling what God is going to do here in Pflugerville this year. He has given His promises and we are ready to claim them. I know many of you have promises from God, also, and I'm just expecting to hear the great things happening coming from across the country.

Our boys have grown so much this year - I can't imagine what 2008 will bring!! Cameron will have his liscense next week - pray, saints, pray!! LOL! Chad will turn 14 and Cameron will be 17 this year!! WOW! How did our kids get this old while we have stayed so YOUNG?!!

I pray that you all have a wonderful New Year. Keep us informed on the fulfillment of the promises of God. We love you all!
