Christmas 2019

Mom, Chad w/ girlfriend Katie, and Mother-in-law Anna.

Christmas 2019 - a busy week with family! It was a full house on Christmas Eve (three boys and the girlfriends!) and we all managed to squeeze around the dining room table for a lasagna dinner. As usual, we had our fill of cookies, snacks, candy, a very good variety of cheese (thanks to Chad).

On Christmas morning, Mom went with Tom on his daily walk through Longview Park. All said and done, they put in over 2 miles of zig-zagging around the park while Tom picked up trash. A little while later, we decided to walk to Friendship Manor (an assisted living care facility) to say hello to Tom's mom, Ann. It was such a beautiful and balmy day for the Midwest so mom got plenty of steps for the Fitbit.

As 2019 comes to a close, we have a lot to be thankful for. Mom has had good health overall, and her doctor check-ups continue to show positive results. The cancer has been kept at bay, partly due to mom's great attitude and partly due to continued prayers by family and friends.

We are looking forward to 2020 and hoping for more of the same - good health and good times with family and friends!
