If I have your mailing address, you should have received a card in the mail… Regardless, I would like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas! I hope you are spending the holiday with family and/or friends and have some good food.

This year I feel my mom’s presence more than previous years. Her memorial rose is blooming! And we’re in the end of December! That is quite fantastic!

And not just with one flower, but with four! It really loves it’s place on my back porch and it is right outside my kitchen window so I can see it and think about mom all the time!

I got a really good Christmas picture of BamBam today! He is so hard to get a good picture of. He always looks weird and goofy so once you get one it’s just awesome!

Christmas will be quite calm in the Wichmann house. No major plans. Going to a friend on Christmas Day to have lunch and that’s about it. Try to spend as much time with the dogs as I possibly can. I found out today that the owner of the farm where the horses are, are also out of town so I have to feed the pigs which means two trips there a day. No biggie at all, it’s going to be cold and rainy at night so the horses will need hay twice a day anyway.

So from all of us, to all of you

MERRY CHRISTMAS!
