Happy New Year

Happy New Year

We hope everyone had a wonderfully blessed Christmas and we wish only good things for you in the new year.

It’s been quite awhile since I’ve written, I think I might have lost some of the momentum. So where do I begin. We had a wonderful Christmas. On Christmas Eve we attended a non-denominational church service. It was a candlelight service and it was beautiful. No pictures of it - you’ll have to take our word for it….

On Christmas Day we attended a ‘pot luck’ dinner at our favorite bar “Fandangos”. There was turkey, beef, all kinds of salads and lots of scallop potatoes. It wasn’t your traditional Christmas Dinner but we ate lots and enjoyed the company. This picture was taken by Victor, the owner of the establishment. We enjoyed the company of Buzz and Heather Byers, who hail from Penticton. He plays a mean steel guitar and sings, and entertains once a week at Fandangos.
On Boxing Day we ventured across the border into El Centro, US for a little shopping at Costco. It was an early morning and a long day, but we managed to call home and talk to Michel’s mom and dad and to my kids. All is well - both here and there!!!

On New Years Eve we were back at Fandangos - you’d think we lived there!! Well, almost. Buzz was the entertainment and the owners brought out the champagne at midnight and thenfireworks afterwards. They do like their fireworks here!!
It was a quiet evening, nowhere near as many people as expected, but it was fun.
