It’s been a great Christmas week here at Tween Creeks! Gary arrived on Sunday and since then we have ventured out little. Mostly we have stayed here at the house, feasted on home cooked meals, chatted long-distance with our kids, watched Christmas movies, and just enjoyed one another’s company. We’ve also enjoyed several Christmas concerts on Qello. Gary particularly enjoyed the Faith Hill Christmas Concert. We were all tickled by a rendition of The Twelve Days of Christmas by the a cappella group Straight, No Chaser. Check it out here! The two of us participated in a beautiful Mass at Living Waters Reflection Center on Christmas morning. Then today we went into high gear getting ready to depart on a southbound trip early tomorrow. Besides packing, we had to de-Christmas the house. After all was packed up and stored away we found a few stragglers: 3 Santa statuettes, 2 Holiday towels, and a Christmas book on a coffee table. Oh, yes, and the Fraser Fir wreath from Bryson’s, but we intended to leave that hanging outdoors at least until we get home. Now to settle into a chair in the living room and raise a toast to a delightful Christmas visit!
Stotfold – A Family Adventure
With Karen’s sister, niece, and her family we visited Stotfold England to walk in the footsteps of ancestors and to explore a lovingly restored historic water mill.
Hope we’ll get to see you when you’re “down South”! Happy New Year!
