Merry Christmas 2005!

Over the years we've filled your ears

of moves, jobs and travel

Preschool days to college ways

time can be a gavel

Family trips and funny quips 

 are part of our regalia

May this rhyme save you time 

from reading a long saga.  

Environmental clean-ups

keep Jeffery on the go

            But on the days he gets to play

he should be a pro!

Exhorting daily those who seek 

 Judy shares the key

The Christmas story of Christ's glory

God's love given free

Ryan needs great expertise- to realize his vision

He's fixed his gaze to train his days -

Air Force is his mission

Elizabeth still seeks to earn - a BSN degree

 Her days are filled with study skills -

And friends she loves to see!

Carpet, counters, sinks & paint -

All windows we replaced

At Home Depot we're famous

for fixing up our place

A silky thread we spin and pin

the stories we could tell  

Fabric teeming thick with life

but now we'll say farewell

We pray this little sonnet -

Will share our thoughts sincere

May God's deep love pursue you .-

Throughout the coming year!

Love,

 Jeff & Judy Bauman
