While it is still a while before 2012 rings in, I probably, most likely won't be making any kind of posting on here until then . . . just seems to be how it goes. With three sleeps to go until Christmas, I am really looking forward to the time off with family and friends. This will be our daughter's first Christmas and Kim and I are pumped for that. The fun all kicks off tomorrow and then will roll until the 27th when all the 'extended' Christmas gatherings end. We do have another in January as well which will be a blast. If you read the Watrous Manitou, I have highlights of 2011 local sports in there for Monday's paper (Dec. 26). I also put local news headlines in this week's edition. I found it amazing how much stuff happens in and around Watrous and with former residents who are doing bigger and better things. Make sure and check it out if you get a chance. Here are some of my recent pictures that I really enjoyed taking . . . hope you enjoy. From Kim, Natalie and I may you have a wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year! Blessings!
