Hi Everybody:
Linda Fahrney Freeland here in Allen, Tx.? wishing all my 1959 classmates and their families a very MERRY CHRISTMAS !? AND A HAPPY 2015!? Yes, I say "Merry Christmas" very radically - no political correctness here!
It's Christmas Eve and I have been out to eat with my daughter, Val, and then over to my Sister, Cheryl's home in Carrollton, Tx. and visited with her son, Kurt and family who are visiting from Idaho.? I had a nice evening.? This is one of the few Dec. 24th's that I didn't have too much to do.? I did decide to make homemade rolls from my Grandma Smith's recipe and now I'm babysitting that dough.? I think I have it to a point I can leave it overnight.? I hope so!
I had a wonderful December with 8 Christmas gigS - 6 are over and have one Dec. 26th and Dec 31st - just a nice mix with have enough to do and plenty of time to get Christmas stuff done.? (Several of them were "The Fabulous Fifties-?which combines very well with classic Christmas songs that were released in the 1950's-which are many!???
This is the first year in 40 some years that I will not be with my son, Steve, nor his family.? They all went with my daughter-in-laws' parents to Mexico to some deluxe Hacienda with cooks and servants to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary.? That includes my daughter-in-law and 2 grandsons - only grandchildren I have.? So while I will miss them dearly tomorrow, I will concentrate on my two daughters and son-in-law with me and on the most important child on Christmas - the Christ child!? Warmest regards to ALL OF YOU.
