Tilp Family Celebrates Christmas 2006!!!
The Tilp family portrait from 1958 and we are all alive and well! Thanks be to God. Our wonderful parents are in Essex, CT where they have developed a home and new friends at Essex Meadows. My father is known as the most mobile member of the residence, as he is completely reoriented to where he lives. He attends the early morning breakfast bunch, while my mother has made one foray to the gym and many--dressed to the nines-- to the dining room. They are both well. My sister Pam and her husband Bill and family are spending Christmas in Steamboat Springs. Robin and husband Lindsay and son, Robert, will be entertaining the McManii clan in New York. Niece Reeve and her husband Mike
and children are about to enjoy the white Christmas here in Santa Fe. Son Zeke is wired about a new Batman lego. I enjoyed opening our presents earlier this week in peace and tranquility. I ventured off to school this morning only to find yet another snow day closure and not the two hour delay reported on television. So off I went to the back of Mesa Verde to the beautiful landscape overlooking the Alameda and Santa Fe Mt. FINALLY all is white with about 10 inches of snow. I am not the only one enjoying the snow, though as the neighborhood dogs are on the loose and happy to be outdoors finally after yesterday's 10 hour snow. We have all gone our separate 
ways this Christmas but are united in spirit. Our most recent family portrait here from my niece Kate's wedding shows again the incredible beauty of this Southwest landscape...What a treasure this earth is and all of the people in it can be at this time of year when we celebrate light and life. May you and your family enjoy these holidays and the beauty around you which can be touched and felt with the heart. Peace on Earth and Happy 2007 to all.

Hi Meredith! Happy Holidays to you and yours! 10 inches of snow, huh?!
I'm sure you know it's been unseasonably warm here in NJ and I'm loving it!!
I Spoke with Graham about a month or so ago. My boss and Jordan Kassalow are both Draper Richards Social Entrepreneur Fellows. Graham and I have passed a couple of emails since he found my picture on my orgs website. Then I had to call the Scojo office for something and I got to speak with Graham. It was a really nice conversation.
So, it sounds like you're livin' the life - a life surrounded by beauty.
I wish you all the best in the coming year!!

Hi Meredith: what a nice way to send holiday greetings - via blog. Sounds like you've got a lot of good things going, especially the snow. My dog would love snow, I think; he's not seen much here in Dallas. I wish you the very best for 2007 and hope to get Santa Fe soon.

Hello Meredith.... Merry Christmas Greetings to you and yours. Your teaching year appears to be moving along well; I trust you are content with it. Your earlier words have been enlightening and admirable.
I do wish you the best one can hope for in the newest of 2007 and I hope to see you often during it.
Very happy thoughts to all your family. Peggy Hawkins
