CHrIStmAS LeTtEr





Merry Christmas 2018

Lea is a Freshman and made the varsity volleyball team.
She never stops moving, involved in everything it seems.
The voice of an angel, yet the attitude of a lil’ devil.
Her achievements this year would make anyone revel.

Giles loves fast cars and can tell you everything about their horsepower.
He watches videos on how to make his eclipse faster for hours.
His baseball season seemed to last forever
Which pitch he should throw, man he is clever.

Maya graduated from high school and journeyed off to college.
To fill her head with mush and maybe some knowledge.
Getting great grades, missing her family, she has had quite a quarter.
Coming back to work at the school, she decided to make the drive shorter

True graduates in December with his associates, Business for Ag.
If personality gets a job, he has it in the bag.
He spends most his days with Katlyn hunting and fishing.
You can only imagine the wish his mom has been wishing.

Cyrus and McKayla have been married more than a year.
Happiness in life is what they appear.
Making his decision on what to do with his degree
Getting a job or a Masters, his future is free.
McKayla spends her day taking your blood pressure.
Being part of our family, she’s quite a treasure.

Harlen grew onions this year but the bulls are always on his mind.
He is always out looking for the best herd bull he can find.
He spends his free time with the kids and teaching the Word.
He does all of this and still takes care of our herd.

Exciting year for me, coaching softball for more than fifteen years.
Maya & I coached, in the end there were cheers.
For the 1st time in our history we won the county championship.
Not to brag, but we just didn’t win we slaughtered. We whipped.

With Loughlin and Rhiannon not far from our thoughts.
Remembering the memories, there are really a lot.
Christmas time brings peace to our hearts.
The time we spend together are always the best parts.

We hope this letter finds you healthy and content.
Please know of our love and friendship that it’s sent.

Merry Christmas
The Garner Family

Chief
I buried my best friend today.
I know what you think, what you'll say.
When I was  depressed he never judged.
Just walked in front of me and gave me a nudge.
Loughlin used to tell me pet a dog everyday.
That will keep you happy and keep the sadness away.
He loved to play fetch with his toy shoe.
You might have been done but he was never through.
He didn't know he was a bird dig. He loved the cows.
He taught himself to herd them. I don't know how.
Memories fade I know after years.
But memories can't wipe away these tears

Fairy Godmother



Don't we all wish for that fairy godmother to come and make our lives easier. I have been so out of it for so long that even the smallest tasks take me forever. I am so out of shape. I am trying to clean my room. It is going to be a 3 day job. The tree is up though, not decorated yet, but up. 2 steps forward and one step back. I am fighting an ear infection also. I don't want to go to the Dr. again. I am tired of Dr.'s.
