For Christmas Tamara received a Blog from Jeff; it is listed on our sidebar “Blogroll”.

So keep an eye on the adventures of “The  Silly Farm” at  or as the subtitle says “The World in a Princeton Minute”.

On Friday Brenda and I drove down to Princeton to spend Christmas with Kevin,Tamara, Sage and Conrad. We are so lucky to be able to spend Christmas with some of our family and especially with our grandchildren.

The kids have been keeping us busy playing and entertaining them and Kevin and Tamara have been keeping us very well fed.

Saturday morning we worked on a gingerbread project. Sage’s was a Santa Sleigh and Reindeer and Conrad’s was a Train and Caboose.

After dinner and just before bedtime Sage and Conrad were allowed to open a present. They both received very fuzzy, cozy and warm housecoats.

Then they put out a plate of cookies and some milk for Santa and carrots and water for the reindeer. Then it was off to bed!

In the morning they started with opening their stockings and then moved on to a tree full of presents.

Christmas dinner was celebrated with Kevin and Tamara’s good friend Tim.

Tamara did a great job cooking a wonderful turkey dinner with all the trimmings.

Like most family gatherings at Christmas we all ate too much and it was delicious.

Dessert was specially decorated cupcakes and a bowl of sherbert for those who had room.
