Christmas 2011

It's time again to wish you all

a Merry Christmas day.

We also hope that this New Year

brings happiness your way.

We Robbinses are going to try

to keep you all abreast

of what's been happening in our lives

from snug within our nest.

Our Christmas tree is beautiful.

Our Santas are in place.

In fact, all 43 of them

use up far too much space!

Still I couldn't spare a single one.

In fact, I must admit...

Each year, I buy a new one and

Dick doesn't mind a bit.

We're in the midst of baking still,

the same old things each year.

The cookies and the Danish seem

to bring a lot of cheer.

And so the Robbins Bakery

will do its best to stay

in business just as long as we

enjoy good health each day.

There's just one thing that's new with me;

I had my hair cut short.

No more perms or rollers for me.

I'm looking quite the sport.

I love my hair, 'cause all I do

is wash and brush it out.

I even have some natural curl

that this haircut brought about.

With Dick, let's see; what's new with him?

He bought a new iPhone

to keep up with technology.

These skills he now can hone.

He loves that almost every day

he finds out something new.

That tiny little instrument

shows him what it can do.

I've rambled on quite long enough.

It's time for us to say:

May your Christmas and your New Year

be great in every way.

And please, let's all remember

that very first Christmas morn,

for on that day in Bethlehem

the dear Christ Child was born.

With love,

Darlene & Dick
