Birthday Photos

I had wanted to share some photos from my birthday and Thanksgiving but our photo program went wacky and I was in danger of loosing all my photos on the web page if I posted another blog. I think I got it figured out and am able to add a few more.

Before I go on: HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!! (And Merry Christmas!)

Our Thanksgiving was very enjoyable. Josiah and her boyfriend, Adam, came to visit us for the Holiday and we had a wonderful time together. We made our first turkey dinner and enjoyed it to the fullest!

We mostly spent the days relaxing or cooking, but we did take in a few of the Ithaca sights.

They were even here for my birthday, which was on Saturday after Thanksgiving. We enjoyed a leisurely day with food and gifts (for me!) and fellowship.

It was a really nice weekend. The best part, for David and myself, is when Josiah and Adam came back on Sunday after church because the brakes on the car went out. They weren’t very far from Ithaca when they found this out. We are glad they came back! David enjoyed helping Adam work on the car, and the extra social time.

Be sure to check out the photos in “Highlights on 2008” I finally added more photos!

I hope you all are doing well!

In Christ,

Rita
