Merry Christmas to all of our Family & Friends!
Winter has come early this year in New England! We will certainly have a White Christmas this year. We didn’t get a chance to get out the Christmas Lights due to all the storms we have had on the weekends but it is bright and cheery inside our home as our children make their way back home for this special holiday celebrating our Lord’s birth.
Tommy lives here year round and has had quite an adventurous fall starting at a new school that emphasizes math & science. He continues to enjoy Scouts, Youth Group and his new found favorite pastime …Skateboarding. Heather is just home from her first semester at Westmont College in Santa Barbara, CA. She is just loving seeing the snow and doesn’t seem to mind the cold although she is having trouble getting up early……
Brook moved back home temporarily until she can find a home of her own. She really enjoys her work in the accounting dept at ElizaCorp in Beverly, MA and is going to school part time. We are very proud of her. Marcy is now a teacher in the Boston Public Schools teaching Biology & Chemistry. She has a lovely apartment with her best friend from high school in Cambridge. It has been fun exploring Boston with our very knowledgeable tour guide. Tammy & Matt will arrive tomorrow from Nappanee, Ontario for Christmas. They continue to live in their cozy apartment saving for a house. Matt enjoys programming and Tammy is working & going back to school for teaching. Tom & I celebrated that our older three are all employed and have their own health insurance! So you can see the house will be full again & the festivities are about to begin. I am only able to stop for a moment to write this short update because I took a vacation week from work at the emergency room at Holy Family Hospital. It has already been 4 years that I have been back to work. This may well become my new Christmas tradition. Somehow I have managed to get Tom to slow down abit from his hectic work schedule at Eliza while I have been on vacation and we have gone off to breakfast and had some time to rearrange the kitchen. We have to keep the kids guessing when they come home.
Our prayer for all of you is to relax and enjoy your time with your loved ones. Continue to be a blessing in their lives. Merry Christmas!
Love, Colleen for the Ostberg family
