Merry Christmas, 2012...

Today is Christmas.  I tend to spend the day thinking about my family and friends, hoping those not nearby are having a wonderful day and missing our son Jake.  Last night we held our annual "Turner Family Christmas."  We usually rent the clubhouse at Hidden Springs because the family has grown so big, but this year we were able to host it because our main room is as big as the clubhouse.  It was a wonderful evening.






My wonderful mothers











We had a fox released at Jacob Springs the day before Christmas...



and today, the deer were down close...

Merry Christmas to all


and to all, a good night! 

I hope your day, whatever you celebrate, was beautiful...

  1. LOVE the pictures; looks like everyone had a wonderful time.

  2. My friend Shannon and her husband caught him on their property in town. I figured we could give him a good home with lots of room. He high tailed it up the sledding hill and we may never see him again!

  3. Love the pictures. It was a marvelous eve, Christmas Eve. Thank you !
    That fox will never know what a great home it passed up----it will never have it as good as life would have been at your "ranch". The deer love it---are quite content.

  4. You are such a blessed woman, Jodi - all that family and fun.

    I am impressed with the fox, too. We used to see them all around the Willamette Valley but I haven't seen one for probably 10 years. I keep looking. I am thankful you could provide that fellow with the wide open spaces to roam.
