Christmas Day and the Day After
Bob and I celebrated Christmas with my brother, Jim, and his family at their house on Christmas Day. It’s a little more than a 2-hour drive to Jim’s house. The weather forecast for Christmas Day was not good. Here, in Warren PA, there was a winter weather advisory for freezing rain until 5:00 PM. Jim lives near Kittanning PA, where there was also a winter weather advisory in effect. The winter weather advisory in Kittanning, though, expired at noon. We left our house late morning, hoping to avoid the wintry weather. We were fortunate not to run into any freezing rain either en route Jim’s house or on our way back home in the evening.

Looks like you had a wonderful family Christmas! Just catching up now that everything has slowed down. Love the snowman pics! Happy New Year! Jean
From the pictures it looks like a great time was had by all! Christmas for us was on Christmas Eve so the actual day of Christmas was quiet.
Those are wonderful pictures Linda! Looks like you had a lovely time!
Nothing better than fun, food and fellowship! Except, of course, the sparkle in the eyes of a child as they open a package containing that very special something!
