Happy New Year from Arizona!

In SunCity West, Christmas is still a fun time for alot of the seniors here. They go all out and decorate their houses, just like they have been all their lives. On Christmas Eve, everyone gets in their cars and golf cars (like us) and drives around to see the lights. They also have lumanaries on the sidewalks in front of some houses. Those are white paper bags with sand and a candle inside. It's pretty neat, some streets have them all the way up and down.

We opened our presents on Christmas morning. Since Ed and I are working part time jobs, we each used our 'own' money and shopped for the other. I got Ed a Wii console with some games. Ed was super surprised and loves it. I also got him a golf shag bag. That holds a bunch of balls to practice with on the putting and chipping green. I received a new Schwinn bike. My other one was probably 15 years old and was not fun to ride anymore. It was a struggle. This one is awesome-now I need to get busy and ride! I also got a Ninja Blender. I demoed it and fell in love with the blender, so Ed surprised me with it.

I hope everyone's Holiday was full of love and happiness. Bye for now, Love, Vicki and Ed
