Family and Christmas

Well Christmas was very special at our house except that my husband got sick on Christmas day at about 9:30 or so in the morning. He had written a special prayer, blessing, speech to give at the table that he never got to give. He was basically in bed for 3 days and on the coach for the fourth. He is feeling some better today. Then my oldest son and I got sick on Thursday night and spent most of Friday in bed. My daughter-in-law though the best thing to do was to get her and kids out of here to see if they could escape what ever it was we had. So far according to the conversation I had with them today she has. Gary pulled together the strength to get him and our son returned to Abilene. It has not been the homecoming we were anticipating nor the way we had anticipated spending Christmas. So on that note, how was everyone else's holiday. We are going to spend the New Year celebrations in much the same as we have every other year, at home eating chips and dips and watching movies.
