New Year's Fireworks

"Over Christmas I had basketball practice, but it was slow because all my girls weren't here. We also helped sponsor the men's basketball tourney that was held here in Marshall. I went to the Christmas programs, and they were okay, but since none of the students wanted to play Barney, I had to. My family had Christmas dinner at both Lena's house and at my mom's house. On New Year's we just exploded fireworks with the kids. After that I went to Pilot Station to watch the tournament. For only one day I went moose hunting with Roy and Aaron, but all we saw was fresh tracks. During Slavi the star came to our house. We also went to Russian Mission for a day to visit and check out their Slavi."
