MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR
TO ALL OUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY

We want to wish all our friends and family a wonderful holiday season. May you all enjoy every day and may all your days be filled with love and joy!

As most of you may already know, I am in San Antonio, Texas staying with my mother. She had a fall in November, 2005 and was hospitalized for 3 months because of complications, My sister Mary came from Kentucky and we spent every day with her (in the 5 different hospital/rehabs she was in). Mom came home on February 24, 2006 and Mary stayed for another month until she felt I was able to handle things without her assistance. Mary is a nurse and Mom would not be here today if it wasn't for her expertise and help. Mary has come two more times to spend time with Mom while I went to visit my family. I have been staying with Mom for a year now and she is getting a little stronger each day.

Rick is living and working in Victoria, Texas. He is the General Manager of Victoria Electric Cooperative and really enjoys his job. He has been there for 2 years. I was still living in Carrollton and traveling back and forth from Carrollton to Victoria before Mom's fall. Rick has been training and participating in triatholons and it keeps him in good shape and very busy.

All 3 of our boys and their families live in the Dallas area. Chris and Heather have moved into our home in Carrollton and they are taking care of the house and dogs. They have helped us so much and we are so appreciative of all they do. Ben and Becky and our grandson Tyler also live in Carrollton. Tyler is a joy. He turned 3 in October and is keeping his mom and dad hopping. Matt and his wife Kristina live in Frisco, Texas. They have blessed us with our second grandson on November 1 this year. Braylon Edward Norton is a beautiful healthy baby. We are both looking forward to seeing all our children and grandchildren for Christmas. Grandma and I will go to Carrollton on Wednesday, December 20 and return on January 3, 2007. Rick will arrive in Carrollton on December 23rd. It will be wonderful to have us all together for the holidays.

I think of all our friends and family often.

MAY YOUR CHRISTMAS SEASON AND THE COMING NEW YEAR BE BLESSED WITH HAPPINESS, JOY AND LOVE.

Our love to all of you,
Kathy and Rick Norton
