In no time, it was time for them to head back to Sacramento. The time went so fast during the holiday season. It seems like John, Justin and Paige were only here for a blink of the eye. Hopefully we'll see them all this spring. If not, we are making plans for us ALL to meet in Vegas for somebody's 30th wedding anniversary in May. Plus, I think we have something happening Labor Day Weeekend.

While they were here, they got to celebrate NewYears Eve with their college friends in downtown Milwaukee and then we went to Green Bay to the Packer game.

We had Chinese before Justin and Paige had to leave.

It was great having mookie here even if it was only a few short days

Justin and Paige came on New Years Eve

The snow we had in December was melting fast as we headed toward the New Year.

We all said that even though we had a great Christmas, it wasn't quite right without Justin and Paige

Jacie said "keep the drinks coming" -Just kidding

We had a nice time

And enjoyed the evening

On John's last night in Wisconsin we went to Casa Del Rio for dinner

We had some margaritas

John and Santa (Mox)

John said that he and I looked like twins. He said if I didn't wear glasses, pulled up my collar and puffed up my hair. What do you think?..... Well, maybe the sport coats match.

we had a great meal

We got ready to go home

Jacie was happy to have John home too.

A pianist played Christmas music as we ate
