...along with much happiness and cheer.
I was worried going into Christmas. The snow had gotten pretty bad; we were pretty well stuck at home for a few days.
We put the best face on it, but I was worried the Portland clan would not make it. But they did, braving snow and ice and giving us the first full Heinrich family Christmas in many years.
There was good food and drink (and I mean really good food), poker and live music, flurries of wrapping paper, a thousand little chocolates and good times in great company.
Plus, it was nephew Leo's first Christmas. He is almost 7 months old, so it clearly meant more to us than to him.... but still he made out like the proverbial bandit with Christmas loot.
And then today, Trish and I went and got our Christmas gift to each other. Her name is Gracie and she is a 2 year old coon hound mix.
And she is making herself at home already. I hope all of you had as much fun the past few days as we did.
