Drawing names this year

To help with the gift buying this year, can we add a little bit to our name selection? When we put our name in, we should add to our slip around 3 things we like or want or enjoy doing or whatever. Would that work? I know some of you plan to rig it anyways...which is cool.

WHAT?

The Polar Express...who voted for the Polar Express?

How long has this baby been in this family?

Securely placed on the tree for another year. It has been 9 years that we have had this precious ornament and every year it gets a good laugh and placed lovingly on the tree..... Thank you

Uncle Eric for the years of fun.

Can you believe almost a year ago I suggested to Jamie that we should have a blog so that we can all communicate the fun and exciting trips, everyday activity and of coarse the taunting the Nilles' do continuously until perfection. Thank you all for taking part in posting, reading and enjoying "The Nilles Report".

Brett's New Xmas Creation

Quebec, Canada

This was the river walk. Still very pretty.

How about this one. I can see the comp was not the greatest. Here I have the columns as a frame. It's a little further back but give a little more sense of size. There is more on the sides that "fills" the view.

Notre-Dame-de-Bonsecours Church, Old Montreal

This was the church proper. Susan and I went to church here. There was only 10 people in attendance. It was very nice. This was an old sailors church.

Rue St. Paul Street, Old Montreal

They had the streets decorated for Christmas and the clear skies made for a nice deep blue. The domed building is the Market Square were ships would unload and trade would be completed.

Notre-Dame-de-Bonsecours Church, Old Montreal

This is the church Susan and I went too. We got lucky, Saturday Mass is said in English. Also, the good father was from Detriot.

Montreal, Quebec

Hey, Susan and I made it back safe and sound from Montreal. We had a wonderful time. Mark Twain was correct when he said, "you can't throw a rock in Montreal without hitting a church." This is the alter in Notre Dame Basilica. It was beautiful. Susan and I were going to go to church here but we ended up at Notre-Dame-de-Bonsecours Church in Old Montreal.

Change was only a word to win!!!!!!!

Funny how the only change we need is ones that benefit trial lawyers and raise the cost on all goods. Barack will change the courts to allow babies to be killed, our enemies to eat cake and kill Americans with no response, and redistribution of the wealth. Change is good for those who do not work, pay their bills, or want to take personal responsibility for their own success. Now I have to work more hours for less pay so other people can get their mortgages and gas paid for while not working. Thanks to the traitor in the family for allowing a new sense of entitlement for theses changed people. When the revenue goes down and your taxes go up for people working to put food on the table; Remember that we needed change, traitor.

Traitor in the Family

I will not name names, but we have a traitor in the family. This person needs to be brought into the open and told how bad a decision it was to vote for a democrat. People, people anyone who believes in socialism should go to another country and leave this one for people who believe in freedom. Democrats do not want people to try, but want them to live on the government; This must stop. So, call this family member out and tell them they are destroying this country.
