Where, oh, where did December go? We had so many great activities and a few challenges during the month. We loved attending the annual Tabernacle Choir Christmas Concert with Mike and Katie...and the Little America dinner beforehand! What a night!! It was wonderful, but bone-cold!! We had to walk a couple of blocks to ride the Trax, so we all felt the chill of the night.
We were happy to have the little McKea children for a sleepover on Thanksgiving night. That allowed all of us to sleep while the crazy people shopped all night. Pancakes and decorating the tree were our activities. It was fun to have their enthusiastic help!! Thanks, kids!
Just before the big day, Gordon flew in to help us celebrate. We had his room all ready for him. We tried to help him have a good time with some baking, candy-making, hanging with the family and going on drives and visits. Katie's birthday was the usual fun celebration with the addition of a sealing at the Salt Lake Temple for Titan to his family - Dan and Annie. We didn't get to go to the sealing because we
spent about ten hours in the hospital. John had an attack of great pain and we needed to be sure it wasn't a heart attack. Near as I can figure, it may have been pericarditis....which still needs to be confirmed. Actually, we are still seeing the doctors for treatment and tests....
We went over to Mike and Katie's for pizza and the New Year; we cheated and left at ten, coming home for bed! I understand the little ones were up later than Grandma and Grandpa and they saw some exciting fireworks!!
So there it is - a busy December that just flew into 2012!! Happy New Year To One And All!!
