MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM THE HELMBERGERS!!
Ye ole' Christmas Tree and Bella.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!
Glad tidings to you and much holiday cheer.
Before we get started I have to forewarn -
Kyle's a real driver -- Keep yo' hands on yo' horns.
Not only that he shot his first deer -
Just in time for this letter of holiday cheer.
It wasn't real big...Oh, but it was a buck.
Hockey starts this week so he's moved on to pucks.
Our year was a full one with things good and bad.
And some heartbreak too - In March we lost my dad.
"Cancer," they said when the tests all came in.
We've spent most of this year - all missing him.
Kayla announced that this time next year -
She'll graduate college (And, man, we'll ALL cheer).
She just bought new wheels. A car sleek and new.
With a few bells and whistles and car payments too.
Kirstin is still taking classes and such -
But her life will soon change -ever so much.
We're all planning and primping and doing things now
For New Years when she and Ben say their vows.
We've added a puppy to our house, too, this fall.
His name is Miller - and he comes when we call.
Not after the beer!! Jeeze...Holy Moly!
Kyle named him (sigh) after a goalie.
Merry Christmas! Here's wishing you all of the best!
And a year that is nothing, nothing but blessed.
