I'd Still Like To Go To Grandma's House For Christmas (2007)


In 2007 I used the song "I'd Still Like to Go To Grandmas House For Christmas" as sang by the Talleys for our Christmas video. I think it is my most popular Christmas video on Youtube.com? Of coarse I have great memories of Christmas at  my Grandmas- what great memories and what a great part of Christmas. 2007 was tough, as Jans mom was in her final days- the family has been called in and  we don't know if she will have Christmas with us or in Heaven that year. She would be 93 next February. This video was made 8 years ago and the Christmas Letter below the actual 2007 letter was written 28 years ago- it was one of our first Christmas letters written and we were just moving to East Wenatchee in 1987- in fact we moved on Christmas Day in a U-haul truck.


Christmas 2007 From The Hendricks
   It's been a twenty year tradition to send a verse about last year in review,
Hoping that we will receive a visit, call or letter from our friends like you.
Our tree is up, it's snowing outside and Christmas music sounds so great,
I must write a Christmas letter and a Christmas video,  before it's too late.
  We took our first week long cruise to Alaska with several friends last May,
In August we went to Silverwood Park for a annual fun filled Family Day.
October was so beautiful as we drove to Montana to visit family in Helena,
 We love the time we spend with 5 grandkids as a Grandma and Grandpa.
  Dennis still stripes state roads in summer and in winter he plows the snow,
Publishes humor books and on Youtube.com you can search for his video,
Teaches 4th /5th graders and re-elected for his final term as city councilman,
Pastimes are his 67 Cougar, computer, Tika our bird and our cat Madison.
  Janice does Abigail the Clown and next June a Royal Family Camp director,
Working on her 57 Metropolitan car, and over 15 years as children's pastor,
Time for sewing, knitting, tatting,  Mega Sports camp,  and camp counselor,
Aerobics, lunch with the girls, shopping, and has to watch CSI and Survivor.
Cody, 3, buckles his seat belt.   Caitlyn, 5 months, has teeth and rolls over,
Emilee, 5, loves animals,  kindergarten,  climbing,  swimming,  and soccer.
Grace, 8, takes piano and dance lessons,  is on JBQ,  and is always  busy.
Trent, 4, loves his donkey, making people laugh, preschool, his cat Baby.
  The Greatest Gift is Jesus, and his promise to come again for you and me
 We Pray God will Bless you, and you are always safe, healthy and happy.

In 2007 I actually made two videos- the one above is by Jake Hess and called Christmas. I will let you decide which one you like better. The hardest part of making a video is choosing the song.


In 2007 Darcie posted this video on Youtube- it has since been removed, but I saved it and am posting it as part of the 2007 Christmas Blog Videos. Hope you enjoy our grandkids.
