This Christmas I’m thankful for many miracles, the coming of a Savior who changed our lives, and the blessings of this life. \u00a0Family, friends, faith, and the joy of being a photographer. \u00a0Brian Stefl and his family stopped though Corbin, and had breakfast with Stephen Hart, Wesley and I and then I got this wonderful Christmas Card from him and his wife Carrie! \u00a0It just reminded me of the greatest joy, people like him, and Jim Begley, Jim Haverstock, Richard Small, Jack Graham, Carl Turner, Snake, and Chuck, Raymond, Ted, Ron, Susan, and Lynn, Don, well you get it, lots and lots of great people that make this life, here worth while!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Then there is the new lives that join us! \u00a0We welcome into this world Olivia, born to John and Sarah Walrath. \u00a0They are blessed this Christmas.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The next blessing I’m enjoying this Christmas season is a renewed love for photography! Retiring has helped me focus on the more pure aspect of seeing, searching and enjoying the process. \u00a0The switch to a lighter system has lifted my spirits as well! \u00a0I’m loving the freedom it brings!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Merry Christmas,<\/p>\n
