December 31, 2023 Quickshot: Happy McNew Year's Eve

 

Alas all good things must come to an end.  We dropped of #Z at the airport and drowned our tears in hot coffee and egg mcmuffins.  May God bless whoever designed Zurich airport to include this food court and Ray Kroc for staring McDonald's.  We sure needed that.  Grateful for the time with our boy.  Happy New Years Eve everyone.

December 25, 2023 Silent....morning.

 

It wasnt really THAT long ago that the #10littlefeet woke up earlier than duck hunters headed to their blinds on Christmas morning.  This morning, as I sit here sipping coffee out of D's Prague Starbucks mug, all those beautiful predawn memories are dancing like sugar plums in my head.  Bed heads, frumpy Christmas pajamas, where sleepy, puffy eyes meet unbridled anticipation.  What a treasury of holiday flashbacks.   Of course, this peaceful, hushed moment, with just the whisper of hymns caroling across the room, ain't bad either.  It will be loud enough later.  Whether yours is reticent or raucous, we wish you a very merry Christmas.
