Christmas Day!
We spent another quiet day in Hemmingford today. After sleeping in late, Andrew and I walked around his parents’ yard. They live on an old horse farm and have about 5 acres, so we walked around and played with taking pictures of the snowy landscape. Then I made Andrew help me with a snowman:
After kicking around the house for a while, we popped over to Auntie’s house to visit with her, Uncle, Maggie, and Bob. Auntie gave Andrew and I a tour around her place, pointing out some of her favorite odds ‘n’ ends. She has a vast collection of dresses, along with treasures from every corner of the world. It’s a lot of fun to tour her place.
I also heard from Dad today. They sent him home from the hospital this morning, and he was able to make it to Christmas-morning church service. The doctor had told him that it was okay, and that he liked to get patients back to their normal schedule as soon as possible. He needs to watch his activity, but should be taking 10-15 minute walks every day. It was good to hear from him.
