We had a very nice, but very cold Christmas this year.
We visited Dad several days in a row, and he was alert enough to know the kids and be able to ask them questions about what was going on in their lives. Mom loved sitting in a chair in front of the fire, and and spent quite a bit of time looking at old photos on her new digital photo frame, a really great gift from Mark!
I feel like I made a ton of food, Appetizers on Christmas Eve and a Roast Dinner with Cranberries on Christmas Day. The leftovers have been good, and we're finally getting to the end of them. We haven't had much time for drinking wine this week, but we did sip on some champagne that Breanna brought, and toasted our time together.
Dad got a new Fedora Hat complete with Feather from the staff at the Care Center. I think he liked his new wildlife blanket, too.
And, I'm grateful that we had another holiday together.
Blessings and Peace to us all!
Loved the Fedora hat! Its très chic! :)
