It was truly an epic Christmas.
Christmas Eve was great fun, visiting with friends we regard as family, and playing an utterly crazy poker game until all hours.
15 months from a near death experience and a double lung transplant, my husband Randy is doing incredibly well. Back to his old self!
My two children, Ally and Wes, 27 and 24, were both home with their fiances, Mike and Carisa. I had four kids this year! And four dogs. Chaos! One of my favorite things.
We are missing loved ones, that is true, but such is the tenor and measure of life itself. They are in our hearts and the very air we breathe. We have much to be grateful for.
Life moves on, the moving finger writes, and all that, and we lose touch with some while we strengthen our bonds with others. We are thankful for those we love in our lives, and even though so many very many of our friends and loved ones live at a distance, we know that friendship and family is not about geography. Besides, we love to travel!
I hope you had a holiday of joy and wonder, with many more to come. Season’s Greetings! 
I lovely look behind the curtains into your family holiday. A delight, Tam.
