I'm a little behind, so it's catchup time.

Here's Samantha picking out ornaments while Lennie is decorating the Christmas tree.



And Samantha putting an ornament on the tree.



And here's a random picture of Lennie's turtle, Nosey. I hate Nosey. I call him "Roadkill" because that is what I want him to be. I think we should set him free before Samantha licks him and gets diseased with scurvy. I do not know why Lennie took this picture, but I figured I hadn't put up a picture of the dumb turtle before so I should do it now and express how much I love him.



Saturday we went with Lennie's cousin, Amy, to Amy's new workplace. She is working at some sort of white water resort thingiemabob. That is the technical term for it. Here is a fancy link for you: white water resort thingiemabob

Anyway, here we are walking on a path around the outside of the white water circuit.



And here's part of the white water thingiemabob.



This is the magical conveyor belt that takes kayaks back to the top for more white water action. There are 5-6 giant pumps right next to this that pump water back to the top. It's very interesting.



And this is me, Amy, and Braden watching some guy flip over in his kayak. 70 degree sunny days in December are weird.

Here, those kind of days are normal. I thought I was FREEZING because it was 60 here earlier today.

That's an interesting thingiemabob. I don't think I've ever heard of those.

I thought you had some sort of turtle fetish. Weren't you calling yourself one for a while?

Samantha is adorable. Glad she got to help with the tree.

Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed your Christmas letter. I laughed out loud! Also the Christmas picture was adorable, however, poor Anna Sengos will not be receiving her card since it was sent to my house and I do not have a forwarding address for her. Thanks again for the holiday chuckle and hope you guys had a wonderful Christmas. Love, Patsy
