Merry Christmas!

 

We were expecting a few inches of snow this week, but the only "white" arrival was the " Elephant" on Saturday!  The forecast is for snow on Christmas day, but we will believe that when it happens! We can hope though.
The Frost family got home safely on Tuesday night and were glad to be back. (And we were glad to have them back.)
Brad went with Curt to look at a job that same day and felt good about being partially back in the work force and seeing some familiar faces.  He is still very tired and continues to take naps nearly every afternoon.  We are hoping that when we see Dr Nye next week (the neuro-oncologist) he will reduce the amount of anti-seizure meds.
Friday night brought Sarah and Travis to us for our hair appointments and for them to take our tickets for the Bronco game.  They left their kids with the two grandmothers, whom I imagine had a great time with them.

Saturday brought our first real seasonal entertaining with the White Elephant party.  We made a huge pot of pasole and some guacamole and were ready.  Pam and John and Alex and Laura (his girlfriend) arrived first... (we decided it had been at least a couple of years since we had seen Alex), with John coming from Iowa.  Great seeing all of them!

Sunday was spent initially with Amie and Curt having their family Christmas celebration with Susan, Roger, Heather and Matt, and Eli and Ashley.  We had an amazing brunch with enough food for twice the number of guests.

Later, Carrie & Spencer, Sarah and Travis left for the Bronco game.  The weather was awesome and apparently so was the game.  Gabi and Corbin stayed with us and we caught up on some "crafting".
