Haha! With busy lives, sometimes you have to have your get togethers with long time friends in Mexico! We met Sherri 3 decades ago when we crashed a party in Lemberg. Her son, Austin, and our son, Addison, have been best buds since Grade 1. We had a great visit catching up on each others lives!
Sherri and Chris
We have known this great gal for a few years. We had a wonderful visit over a delicious caprese salad and tasty pizza at this little restaurant called Cocina Aroma Italiana.
Thank you Alejandra for taking time out of your busy schedule to a have a visit with Hoss and me!
A good friend of ours, Juan Carlos, invites us to his Sunday concessions. Everyone brings drinks and food and a lot of merriment.
Juan Carlos's dog, Choco.
Choco looks like a pussycat, but he's a very good guard dog!
We had a couple of birthday parties to attend. Always a lot of fun!
Good friends of ours, Victor and birthday girl, Miriam!

January 1, 2025 started off with an entertaining day of pickleball and food.
We brought in the New Year with good friends, good food, and we even managed to stay up until midnight to watch the fireworks!
We flew home for the celebration of the Christmas season. It was busy, chaotic at times, lots of fun, and loads of laughs! We spent time with family and friends, ate and prepared great food, and of course had a few drinks!
All dressed up for the Miller School Christmas Concert! Halie is in Kindergarten and Kaiden is in Grade 2, Max is 2, and Mae is still a baby.

The fishing shacks were busy.
I even managed a bit of sewing while at the lake.
