The Hulse Haven

Alright all you naughty little elves, we will be a gatherin at around 10:00A.M. on Christmas Eve morn and we will have a brunch for the bunch. It may make the time go a little faster for those who are so anxious they can hardly stand it. (Like me) I am making 4 kinds of muffins and fritatas. Bring anything that goes with breakfast.Fruit or juice or bacon. Salsa for the fritatas, butter, milk, cocoa powder.(We have water.) Sausage goes good,too. I don't know if we need biscuits and gravy, but if that is your favorite, let me know. We will have some breakfast cereal for the little kids who wont eat anything else. SEE YOU THERE AND WE DO MEAN YOU. Love, Grandpa and Grandma Hulse

Let's try this again ...

Let's try this again ...

Here is our tree. Becky ... I couldn't post this to your blog for some reason.

I am seriously thinking about either having an Open House on the 18th or maybe having a fun brunch on the 24th. Please let me know your feelings. Mystie, I hope that you share this with your sibs and parents. I will call all those that I don't hear from.We sure love getting together with our beloved family anytime, but especially at Christmas.

We were powerless against the force of nature like everyone else, but we did not sustain any appreciable damage, and for that we are most grateful. What was touching to the point of bringing tears was the way in which we were looked after by the angelic members of our ward! First our faithful ward teacher came, then the High Priest group leader came, with a group of helpers to clean up the limbs. We were called by the Relief Society and all our neat family called to see how we were. On Thursday,we were cold as the power was off, so we went in our car to keep warm. When we got hom we built a fire and about 5:00 the power came back on.Today after Sacrament meeting, the angels flew in again to pick up the large stack of limbs in front of our house. There is nothing like these experiences to make one truly grateful for the comforts and necesities of life, and the wonderful people in our ward. Thankfully, our loved ones made it through safely!
