GREETINGS FROM DEB

How was your Thanksgiving? Ours was good. Paul, Mindy, and Catherine were here. David had to stay home for basketball practice. He stayed with my parents...poor kid.

Catherine won the West Middle School Spelling Bee again...third year in a row! She may have inherited my love of music, but I'm pretty sure she inherited her brains from her mother. She loved being here with our pets. She loves animals, but she's allowed to have outdoor cats only. My brother HATES cats...which is why the attached picture is especially hilarious....I also attached a picture of our Thanksgiving food spread, Lance and Catherine in the kitchen, and the freshly fallen snow out the back door.

I'm putting together some Christmas music playlists for our company Christmas Party. We're having a dinner, then casino night, followed by an auction to buy/win doorprizes (like large screen TVs, stereos, healthclub memberships, etc) with the money we win at the casino. I'm in charge of music for the evening. I've got everything from "You're A Mean One Mr. Grinch" to "Twelve Days of a Redneck Christmas" to Bruce Springsteen's "Santa Claus Is Comin' To Town". It will be fun, I'm sure!

I love the picture of Odie and your kids. That should be on some website somewhere........what a great shot.

What's up?

Deb
