This year is the “in-law Christmas” which means all our married children are with their spouses families for the holiday. Since it was going to be a quiet Christmas, we invited a Korean family that is in Kathy’s conversational English to come and spend a few days with us. It was a long day of presents, food, and throwing an American football around, capped off with hot dogs roasted on a fire outdoors. We sat and talked, enjoying being able to be outdoors on such a beautiful night. It was around 9:30pm when we finally doused the remaining embers and went back inside.
So, a very slow Christmas topped of with a time of reflection, good friends and a fire. I think this may become my new Christmas tradition.
