Merry Christmas from Mama & Papa!

Mama and I want to take this time to wish you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We have had a tough year in 2010 in some ways and yet our Savior has been there to help us through the rough spots. We are doing fine now and looking forward to 2011.

Our prayer for 2011 is that we will be His servants and that He can use us and that our hearts and minds will be obedient. Pray for us.

Part of our concern for 2011 is health concerns. We are both doing "fine" but we are approaching our 70's very quickly. I struggle with some moderate affects of Parkinson disease but refuse to let it slow me down anymore than I have to. But I am also learning my limits.

Mama has been my partner now for 45 years. We are halfway to our goal of 90 years together - we think we can make it. So, In 45 years, 2056 lets have a big party if we make it - okay??

God Bless !! And again, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!

Hope you and Mamm are having a great holiday season in sunny Florida.

I am joining you guys in approaching 70. Our bodies may be slowing down, but with the wisdom that comes with age we have learned how to make the most of life. At least that is my story and I'm sticking to it. lol

I look forward to joining you and Mama at your 90th wedding annivesary party. I read the gift for the 90th is diamonds. I think some Geritol and Depends may fit both my budget and our needs by then. lol.
