I wish all my friends and ones that read my column a happy Christmas and a good New Year.

We welcomed a new member to our family on Dec. 21. Little Charlee Mac Winfree was born at 11:18 p.m. at Cookeville Regional Medical. She weighed 6lbs, 12 oz. and was 20 1/4 inches long. Proud parents Ryan and Lindsy Winfree are overjoyed with such a Christmas blessing.

Charlee Mac’s grandparents are Douglas and Barbara Ann Ervin of Smithville and Ward and Elaine Winfree of Brush Creek.
