Happy Birthday Debra

We had a very nice day celebrating Debra's birthday. We are thankful the Lord has placed you in our lives.   Her parents came down from Deep Bay (great to have you over M&D) and spent the day with us.  

The flowers in the picture arrived in the afternoon. Thanks Murr and Helen!

Christmas fudge


Every Christmas Debra and the kids make this Christmas fudge recipe (x 10) :).
The recipe recommends that it "dry" overnight. This is one part of the recipe that we do not obey. The fudge is heavenly.
