These guys. We were over there today in the afternoon, socializing outside. This photo was taken last week of my sweet Miss O. And her brothers!

No in person church service, church on the phone. Santa was put back up again after the blizzard. Swedish meatballs! This distanced Christmas, we did not go to each others houses or any of that.
