Joyful Reflections
Christmas in the Glade 2006
George and Betsy have celebrated six wonderful Christmas seasons together. We hope we live long enough to celebrate 66!!!! 2006 was a GREAT year. Hope you enjoy our pictures.
We invite you to celebrate Christmas with us.
First is a picture of the outside of our house (in daylight).
Now it’s a little darker--so you can see our lights and decorations.
It’s hard to capture the beauty of our lights after dark. They are pretty!

We are amazed at all of the brilliance and reflections when it is dark!!
Christmas Eve is finally here. We are dressed for a midnight church service.
Betsy says, Let’s take a few pictures before leaving for church.
Now---how do you like this happy couple???
