Christmas in Fargo, ND

Christmas in Fargo was such fun this year! I really wanted a white Christmas, since we don't get many in Georgia and I have been here nearly 5 years, but it was not to be. They did get snow shortly after we left, but that doesn't really count, does it? At least, not to me.

We spent Christmas Eve at my sister, Kat's, place and had 18 adults and 7 children. Those missing were Gayle and her guy and Robin's family, which would have brought us up to 22 adults and 10 children. We did our annual pass-around and the hot items people were 'stealing' were a sort of dust-buster and a canister set. Erin shared big news that she is expecting and her dad, Dave, was able to join us this year. He had to shovel out of a snowstorm in Colorado to get here.

We spent the evening on Christmas Day with Jeremy and Tracy, exchanging gifts and eating her yummy supper. It was great fun to be able to spend so much time with them. I think we got to see them every day!

It was great to see Mom and Ken, too. They are both looking so good and much easier to understand! We went to a matinee of "A Night At the Museum" and had lots of laughs. On another night we went out to Red Lobster, Mom's favorite restaurant.

Driving back to the Minneapolis airport, we stopped off for a short visit with Rod and Nashell in Woodbury. I am sorry we couldn't see more of you, but when we come for such a short time, family is really our main purpose in Fargo. I will be back for a longer time in May, when Tracy has her baby, and can maybe see more of you all then.

I pray your Christmas'es were as wonderful as mine! Love and blessings!
