Happy Birthday Grandma Farcin

Thursday was Allen's Mom's 80th Birthday. We celebrated last night with a party at Phil and Barb's. Grandma Farcin didn't want a big fuss made over her birthday but we partied anyway. (since when do we listen to anyone that doesn't want a big deal made out of their birthday??) We had lots of good food and fun. The Christmas parties are in full force now. It seems like there is something going on every night of the week. ( I guess it's too late to lose that 10 lbs. before Christmas!!) Happy Birthday Grandma Farcin. We love you and wish you many more "parties".

Joel and Eli had fun looking at Phil's Christmas Village. Jacob and Kevin missed the party, because Jacob had a basketball game. We missed them and Kerri and her gang too. We can't wait until next Saturday when the Thumm's get here.

Jeff and Stacie were there.
Chris and Janna were there.
This is my sister-in-law Sandra and her daughter Kim. I had to be sure to get this picture in because they haven't made the blog yet!!
This picture does not do Barb's necklace justice, but I couldn't remember how to do a video with my camera. (I need another lesson from Kerri.) The necklace lit up and twinkled. We were all very impressed and Barb gets our "Best Christmas Accessory Award for 2007!!. It really puts the pressure on us to come up with something for next year. Allen's Christmas socks that play Jingle Bells no longer work so we are going to have to do some serious shopping to top the blinking necklace.
