SIDNEY DOWNS (SCOTT'S DAUGHTER) KEEPING TABS ON THE THE TWO HORSES WHILE WE LOAD THE FAMILY

WE HAD A WONDERFUL TIME BEING TOGETHER AND CELEBRATING CHRISTMAS

JINGLE BELLS WAS SUNG BY THE MUSICALLY CHALLENGED CREW.

AFTER THE RIDE WE HAD A GRAND SUPPER AT MATT AND MINDY'S HOME.

THIS HAYRIDE AND SINGING WAS THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE EVENING, OR MAYBE IT WAS THE HAM, OR THE SALADS, BAKED POTATOES AND ROLLS, OR IT COULD HAVE BEEN THE ICE SKATING, OR MAYBE THE WHITE ELEPHANT GIFTS..OH WELL WE HAD A GREAT TIME.
