On Dec 30th in the wee hours of the morning we had gale force winds. The cracking woke us up and as we investigated we discovered that our side fence had been blown over. The wind was strong enough to break 4 of our 4x4 center posts. Sadie our little Chi-hua-hua was totally freaked out by the wind. She could not stop shaking and whining. I finally sent her to the basement to sleep with Amanda. Phill grabbed his camera and took a picture of our fence. Phillip and Jenny also had fences go down at their house. There were fences and telephone poles down all over town. Many people woke up to find their lawn furniture now in someone elses yard.

Grandpa Wakens Birthday
December 26th was Grandpa Wakens Birthday. We all went to Grandpas house. All cameras were on him. I am sure he loves his picture taken.
Christmas Day at the Lees
We Spent Christmas Day with the Lees. We had a really nice dinner and visited and played a new game "Would you Rather". It was a nice day, made even better by being at Jodies house and not having to clean up after the party was over. Here are a few pictures of us.
The whole Group.

Christmas Morning 2008
Christmas Morning. After 20 years of being drug out of bed by kids, this year Diane was the first one up. Phillip and Jenny were coming over at 7:30 to open presents with us, so the girls and Phill all slept in. A tradition in Jenny's family is to have Egg Nog and Cinnamon Rolls so she brought some over for us all to share. It was a nice morning and everyone was happy. Here are a few pictures.
Phill got John Bytheway cds. It was a boxed set. He loves to listen to John when he drives to work. A Lady at Phills work did pencil drawing of all the kids for me. They turned out really nice. This is one of Phillip and Jenny.
Christmas Eve 2008
Christmas Eve we always go over to Grandma and Grandpa Wakens house for the evening. Grandpa always reads the Christmas Story from the Bible and then Twas the Night before Christmas. It is always fun to spend the evening with Grams and Gramps.

Our First Snow
One night I woke up and Phill was missing. I found him in the Loft taking pictures of the snow our our back window. It was so beautiful he wanted to capture it. Later that morning he caught a picture of the birds in our trees. I feed them and when the weather gets bad there could be 50 or 60 in the trees.
