Well Christmas is over and it was terrific. Christmas Eve we got together with our new friends at the RV park and we had a full Turkey dinner (Pot Luck). We sat outside and enjoyed good food and excellent company. We laughed all night. Christmas day we went to Devon and Fawns and spent some time with the children and then we were all invited to Devons mums for dinner.We enjoyed a lovley dinner outside it was 72F. After dinner we went inside and opened stockings. We were very blessed to recieve gifts from Vanessa who is Devons mum.Frank and all the other boys got remote controlled helicopters which was a riot, they were flying round the family room.Christmas was so wonderful because of these lovley people who included us in their family circle. We spent the last couple of days just hanging out at the Motorhome.I am going to my weekly Bingo game tonight, I won 16 dollars last week.We hope to see Sue and doug in the next week. They are about two hours away.We really like it here in Apache Junction and we are staying until the end of Jan and we are already talking about coming back here next year.We hope you all had wonderful holidays and Santa was good to you. We dont know what we are doing for New Year yet but I am sure we will have fun. Take care of each other . Lots of Love

Hello from Apache Junction in AZ. We have been here since the 3rd Dec. We are in an RV park called Carefree Manor ... I know it sounds like a old folks home. It is a really nice park and our neighbours are terrific.We are only 30mins from Devon and Fawn Mortenson, in fact our first week down here we stayed in Devons mums Orange Grove. We have done some neat Christmas things, we went to a Christmas Parade, Pheonix Zoo to see the Zoo Lights, that was so neat and also Mesa Temple lights.People love decorating down here and it shows.We have been to a couple of Family gatherings with the Mortensons, we have been welcomed just like family and enjoyed spending time with them. Devon and Fawn have quite the family of their own 4 boys age 10 -8 --6--4. all adopted and three little foster girls age 4-1 and 2months.. This young couple have hearts so big I am humbled to know them. The weather has been in the 80F range but today it rained and it was only 62F It is hard to think its nearly Christmas with hot sunny weatherThere is lots to do around here and the RV park has a full activity calander which has somthing for everyone. I went to Bingo on
