Rehfeldt Christmas Eve- Part 3- Best Part
"I'M GOING TO BE A GRANDMA! I'M GOING TO BE A GRANDMA!" That's all I remember saying when I unwrapped a gift from our traditional Santa. Normally only the younger members of our families receive gifts from Santa, but somethimes we like to pull a prank on an older member. Well I did threw in a gift from Santa for Dr. Sturgill. At first I thought my sister was getting back at me. Mine was the last gift to be given out that evening.
Judi, my sister-in-law informed me that my mother begin to cry. Since I was standing and she was sitting behind me, I didn't know this. Then Charity, Colleen and Candice were crying. The whole family were so happy for Ann-Marie and Brett!
What a way to end our Rehfeldt Annual Christmas Eve Gathering. I'm still on cloud nine. And oh so thankful to the Lord for answered prayer.
Christmas with the Grandkids!
We met Dave, Camille, Andrew and Brigitte at Red Lobster for lunch on December 22, 2008. An earlier date had to be cancelled because of bad weather.
After lunch we came back to our home to open gifts. On the way over, Dave and Camille stopped and picked up two pies. One was pumpkin and the other was one of my favorite, Lemon Meringue.
We had such a wonderful relaxed time with them. Time always goes too fast when you are with your loved ones. I hope they enjoy their gifts as much as we will enjoy ours. Merry Christmas!
Fun Night With Great Niece & Nephews!
I'm so far behind in my blogging, but I will try to post events that have happened to me even it's for my own benefit.
On December 20th we had Megan, Caleb and Jacob stay with us while their mom and dad attended a Christmas Party at their church. I asked Tammy if they could bring some games they would enjoy playing. They came well prepared.
We all enjoyed a cup of hot chocolate with some cupcakes I had made in advance. Just enjoy the photos. It was a fun night.

2. In the summer of 1963 I lived in Manhattan, New York for about six months. That was the same year that President Kennedy was assassinated. Worked in Brooklyn, New Jersey for a government agency.
3. Met my first husband, Robert Lawrence Trotter at Moody Bible Institute. We were married for 32 wonderful years.
4. Believe it or not but I took piano lessons at MBI. Don't know why, but I did. Not at all good at playing the piano.
5. One sad event for me was a miscarriage when Ann-Marie was around five years old.
6. Thankful that Gary, my second husband was willing to take the plunge and marry me. We have been married for six years.
7. I never use to be a reader of books. Now I'm always reading something. Ranging from biographical to a simple love story. Of course the Bible is my favorite. It is God's Word and I am constantly growing in the things of the Lord.

Soup Weather
It's that time of year when you enjoy having soup. Since my sister, Jan was coming down along with her family...husband and dog, she asked my mother what she would like for supper. At first we thought we would just pick up some fast food items, but mother said that she would like some homemade potato soup. Being the wonderful daughter that she is, Jan made her delicious homemade potato soup....mmmm good.
We did not plan our outfits for that evening, but as you can see, our tops were all in different shades of red.
