Dear Family and Friends,
Merry Christmas! Each year we try to choose a selection of
stories from the short story column Daris writes called Life’s
Outtakes. It is always hard to decide which of the 52 weeks’
stories to choose, but we hope you like our selection and that it will
be inspiring, as well as make your Christmas brighter. Each year
we consider not doing booklets at all, in case someone finds them
boring, but so many of you have told us you look forward to
sitting down and reading them that we have continued.
If you would like read more feel free to go to

If you get to Idaho, drop by. We love to have friends and
family come visit.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from all of us at
the Howard home.
Sincerely,
Daris and Donna Howard and Family.
