For my beautiful Friends here: 3 Minutes that will leave you grinning, I promise. [View all]

I wish I could gather you all and we'd head to a cabin in the snowy woods and light the fireplace, sing carols, tell crazy Christmas stories, make snow angels and drink lots of toddies. Colorado preferably

Your love and support have brought me through this year, to a much better place of hope and peace ( most days ) The boy is OKAY!!!!! Engaged to a beautiful woman - with a PhD I might add braggingly. She makes awesome home brewed beer and is an amazing person perfect for him - neither one of them can sit still.

Now, she is named the same thing as another son's wife, whom I also consider my daughter, ( she is as beloved as my son she married.) But..if all 5 sons pick someone with the same name, it might get interesting

Thank you for being there for some really bad moments. You lifted me up many times this past year, more than you know.



I hope all of your sweetest dreams are met this coming year.



Enjoy:
