Ahh, it was to be such a simple, stress-free day. We we're going to spend Christmas Day at my house. Open up a few presents and then go out and eat lunch. One minor issue--- nothing in Ada is open on Christmas Day! I called every restaurant (and then every quick stop that serves pizza) and nothing was open. So, we improvised and, courtesy D&W, rounded up enough supplies to have hamburgers and chips (as anyone who knows me knows I keep no food in the house). Mom made some tasty monkey bread and we had a pretty good time. But, I guess we'll know better next year. We had a beautiful snow the next day... just hours late of a Christmas snow!

Christmas Pictures
I've posted the Christmas 2007 pictures because I'm fast... like a cat. I'll probably have some more to add later from other people. If anyone needs a printed copy of one or more, let me know.

Store Christmas Party 2007
I've posted a few pics of our "Holt Flooring" Christmas party, which was Tuesday, Dec. 18th. We had a delicious meal at Pete's in Kreb's and did desert and gifts at Ted & Evelyn's cabin in Calvin.

Photos that need your help!
I have created a special set of pictures that I don't know where they were taken. If you have a spare moment sometime, browse through them and, if you know something about one, leave me a comment. Please be as descriptive as you can. To get to this set, just click the example photo at right. Once there, you'll see "This photo belongs to: Where were these pictures taken? (Set)" Click that to view the whole set. You have to be signed in to leave a comment. Thanks for any help!

New Family Pictures
I've uploaded over 30 new family pictures, mostly from the 1960s, including this one of Dixie, Ted, Bob and Bruce A.
If you recognize any pictures posted, please help me out by making a comment. Things that would be helpful are if the ID is incorrect, where and when the picture was taken and/or a short story of what you remember about the event in the picture. I'll use that information to better label the pictures and add any stories to my family tree!
You'll need to be a member of Flickr before you can post comments. To be a member, just accept the invitation I sent you. If I haven't sent you an invitation yet, just email me or you can join right from Flickr (click "sign up" or "sign in" if you already have a Yahoo! ID). Those links are right under the picture and space for leaving a comment.

Family History Book Preview
Merry Christmas everyone! It's almost here. My "Christmas project" this year is a Family History book which I will be giving out printed copies and CDs of this year. If you're interested in previewing it, I have posted the pages on Flickr. I still have some time to correct errors, so if anyone sees something, let me know!
Since the book has some private data and such, I'm not making it available to the public, so you will need an invitation to view it. Just let me know and I'll send you one. Or click "sign up" on the Flickr page to get your account started. I'll move you over to "family" level as soon as I notice the new account and you'll be able to view the book and other photos marked private.
