‘Twas Four Days Before Christmas…

‘Twas four days before Christmas
At Manda’s we were
Momma Duma and Daniel
Also were there.

And with Cheetah Girls singing
The Turkey all gone
There was a great big surprise
About to go on.

While getting along gaily
Now who could have guessed?
That our Tyler and Hailey
Would wind up so blessed.

To have Santa Claus show up
His bag full of gifts
His arrival un-announced
His laughter so swift.

The Children were ecstatic
The Adults were too
It’s not hard to be Happy
With such a Great Crew!


Ok, so I’m not such a great poet, but I couldn't’t resist the temptation to pay tribute to Uncle Dan “the Man” Snyder who went above and beyond to make a visit from “you know who” a little bit early, since Amanda and Family are heading to Oregon on Monday, to be with Kyle’s Parents for a white Christmas.

Momma Duma (Bonnie Nelson) was kind enough to bring Dan, his two (wonderful) turkeys, the dancing music, news from the Universe, and a "Tiger’s Iron" Pyramid for yours truly. Earlier, I’d gotten a ride from Lahaina, with the “S” mans outfit and BAG from a Friend from Kula. What a great evening – the pictures should tell it all. Here’s wishing EVERYONE a Great Sunday, and be sure and take a moment or two, to THANK your GOD for our being here. Life is GOOD.


Santa's Visit Photo Album

Again, I'd like to express a special THANK YOU to Bonnie Nelson for the great photos & video of Santa's visit. Please check out her project Website The Cheetah Alliance to Unite the Children of the World, and to help save the Cheetahs, it's really quite interesting.

  1. WOW!!! It's been awhile since reading your blogs, all the encouraging words of your treatment have been good news to hear from Maui!
    You have a beauiful family (hard to believe Amanda has 2). Your blog is PRO...but no surprise, you are the very first person I knew to embrace and understand the computer... and now you can carry one in your hand!!!

    Best of Health for 2009!!!
