Visit to Pinehurst, NC

We went South for Elizabeth's (Bettie) Birthday, Sara and I had gone all the way to Germany for her 21st Birthday 4 yrs ago when her and Mike were stationed there, she's my Christmas baby, I can't miss celebrating it with her. We celebrated by going out to dinner to Bone Fish Grill.

Sophia helps Mommy open her birthday gifts, her favorite was the box of chocolate covered cherries that Curt gave her.

Elizabeth turned 25 on December 27th

She's come a long way... Bettie was only 9 in the picture below, just look at that red hair!

Christmas time, just Curt and I

I just love my gift from Curt, a Digital Photo Frame, but it's not just a DPF, this one holds up to 6400 photos. Just the perfect gift

Curt and I had a quite Christmas, had a nice dinner and went to see the new movie "Marley and me"

I set the table decorated with lots of lights...

The finished kitchen!!!

Curt took some new pictures of the farm kitchen. He has done such a beautiful job, of course he wouldn't have it any other way. The island is my favorite!

Our visit to Connecticut

Curt and I drove up Saturday morning to visit his Mom and Dad. We had a lovely lunch at Carlito's in Woodbury which is over one town from where they live in Southbury. Fran & Bill live on a very nice golf course community. I can't wait to go back in the Spring and spend some more time with them. We also visited with Curt's cousin Phil and Sharon and their 2 children, Michael and Olivia. We had met at the wedding in October in upstate NY. They opened their home to us, after many glasses of wine and Italian desserts we went to sleep. In the morning Sharon had a wonderful breakfast for us. I want to thank them for their wonderful hospitality!!! I find out more and more about the LaDelfa family. What a beautiful family! Above are some pictures we took in front of the Christmas tree in their beautiful New England home...

THANKSGIVING WITH MY FAMILY
