Okay, alright. I’m cheating. It’s another collage. But what choice do I have when I visit the bustling metropolis of Cincinnati...or more precisely the suburb of Mainesville - which is the epitome of ‘bustling’. True that! 
1) our first flight in 13 months! ✈️Marvelous!
2) tiger cub Kamdem. 🐯Huggable!
3) Jami blew out 34 flammin' brookies.🍪 Sweet!
4) Chris hugs Danika, plays, flys, drove to Nashville to fly some more🚁. 2nd vaccine!
5) specialties: grilled mac'n'chee, flying pig (w kettle chips & bacon), grilled chee donut 🍩
6) Loveland castle 🏰
7) Purple People Pedestrian Bridge crosses the Ohio between Newport, Kentucky and Cincinnati. [Of 9 bridges over the Ohio River into Cincinnati only one is purple and only one for people💜]
8) Cincy is home of National Underground Railroad Freedom Museum. [Revealing stories of courage, cooperation, and perseverance] Tragically, unfreedom is still a thing to be overcome.
Lane & I focused on family this visit. But from a previous trip (2017) I can vouch for #5-8...and more!
Watch for a Tom'n'Chee sandwich coming to a Springhouse Village neighborhood near you.

Blast from the past!
1) I need better photographers
2) today we crossed paths with 4 outstanding Filipinos we met in 2011.
3) the occasion was Michiele's baby blessing
4) Michiele had been an impressive young teenager who played the piano or conducted hymns at church.
5) Cherry was inspired to serve a mission to Australia, migrate to America, start a family, teach Tagalog at the MTC and became a professor at BYU in Filipino studies this year.
6) Bro & Sis Ramilo flew to the USA for the blessing of their 1st g'child. Luis sacrificed time with his wife and 4 kids to work 8 month tours on cruise ships.
7) Luis cooks famous filipino sweet spaghetti.
8) Filipino Saints thrill to see church HQ's
9) they thought the roads were treacherous today. They forget we drove in their country. No contest!
10) Filipino's are gracious, humble, God-fearing and loving people. I'm impressed that they are the last who shall one day be FIRST.

Hello amigos and chicas,
Most of the photos I take are required proof of door dash deliveries. So I had to get creative with this one.
1) It’s Taco EVERYday!
2) It’s raining tacos, out of the sky. Just open your mouth and close your eyes.
3) The most important thing in life is life itself. False. Tacos.
4) I eat my tacos over an empty tortilla so when stuff falls out -BOOM- another taco.
5) Lane made guacamole today, we had NO chips so he got creative with the graham crackers. That man is loco!
6) My tacos arrived with a fork on the plate. I can only guess it’s there to stab taco thieves.
7) Chuck Norris called. If you have tacos, he will find them and he will eat them.
8) This is what happens when you don’t vote. DelTaco “Voted Best Mexican Restaurant 2020”
9) Taco Tuesday sends a horrible message to our children. They need to know that tacos are an option, no matter what day it is.
10) Ladies, if he:
- is hot
- always smells good
- makes you smack your lips
- leaves you feeling happy
He’s NOT your man. He’s a TACO.
Hee hee.
Now for one serious bit: Name a food that everyone loves but you do not. Me first…olives.
January 10th - Stephanie & Darren Hill celebrates 7 years of being married.
January 11th - Carlie is smart enough to not gamble at age 21.
January 14th - Meredith's ’twin’ is 47
January 14th - Cameron’s twin is 37
We still love you forever,

Okay peeps, yesterday we downed all CHRISTmas decorations...
1) I decorated my porch for g’kids
2) I think only Sophie, Savannah and Claire saw it. Oh, and Tom’s kids!
3) This porch decoration took 1st place in the Springhouse Village porch decoration contest.
4) pool noodles make swell candy canes.
5) the wind blew an eye off of the large gingerbread man.
6) next, the wind blew the entire gingerbread man into the dirt lot next door.
7) Run, run, as fast as you can. You can’t catch me, I’m the Gingerbread Man! (But I did.)
8) There were only 2 homes entered in the contest. The other porch took 1st place for Christmas lights.
9) I’m so glad my porch is back to normal.
10) I hope I see more of you ringing our doorbell in 2021.
Coming soon:
Jan 5th Sadie in an incredible 5 years old
Jan 6th Sarah Hill becomes Mrs. Lindeman (welcome Mathew)
Jan 9th Audrey is a totally terrific teenager
