Dear Ones...
Hope you all are able to relax this week and enjoy some "play" time.
Christmas is my favorite time of the year. However, the week-after-Christmas is right up there too! The air is crisp, it got really cold for Oroville... in the low 30's for many days, and sometimes it rained! Bonus!
Looking forward to a great year for the Bell Family, kids, grandkids and friends!
Love,
Mamawnanagramma......(Darlene)

A. These questions are too difficult, Nora! I LOVE TREES AND FLOWERS.
But I'd rather have a forest with no flowers, than a garden with no trees.

Papa just finished splitting a bunch of wood that he cut down from
Lauri and Scott's last week. We are expecting a big storm Tues. that
is supposed to bring us 4 inches of rain. Can't wait.
Love, xoxox

Montana Vacation
To my Grandchildren...
Papa and I are up in Montana as I write this and nearing the end of our 2 week vacation visiting with the Underhills.
We have done 2 new things this trip. We went to a rodeo in Columbia Falls and saw Eric do some bull riding... without breaking anything! He looked good on his ride for all those 4 loooooooooong seconds! Right after the rodeo, we drove up to Big Creek for a 3 day camping trip beside the river. There were 18 of us all together camping, plus 3 dogs and "Bob" (whom I will enlighten you about in my next blog).
Yesterday was a special day for Matthew... It was his 11th birthday and boy, was
he excited. He wanted Legos and Bionicles and received several, so he was on top of the world! Like Kathleen, he did not want a birthday cake, but liked donuts and ice cream. Of course pizza was for dinner!
Hope you will all respond sometime and I will try and keep you posted about all of the super, extraordinary happenings that Papa and I experience in the future!
Love.... xoxox P.S. Nora helped me create this blog... I could never have done it by myself. Thanks Nim! The name of her blog is Nim's World. You get to it by typing in....http://www.thenimworld.blogspot.com
