Act II
Next up in the lead up to Christmas is our annual Tomlinson/Perry night or (as we called it on facebook and got responses from people who thought Red and I were up to no good toilet-papering yards), TP night. The rules are simple-- there are none! My and Phil's best friends, Lamar and Rhonda Perry, get together for some laidback snacking and a rousing game of choice with as many of our collective kids and their respective spouses and/or friends that can make it. In the past years we've played everything from Pictionary to Jinga or Win, Lose and Draw! This year we played Chain Reaction, girls against the boys. Is it really necessary for me to say the girls won?

Okay, I realize this isn't our best look, but I thought
it's be fun to show total exhaustion turned giddy.
Old friends are a special kind of joy. If you don't have any, I pray that you would begin today to forge a new friendship and nurture it daily. Remember, the best way to have friends is to be one!

I love Love. There is nothing better than good old fashion love of family and friends and passing a good time. That there is much love in these families is abundantly evident. Thank you Shellie (and Rhonda) for sharing that love with the rest of us.
