Thanksgiving was a pretty quiet affair and pretty simple. Everything here was store bought, and there were 7 at the table-- with a glaring empty chair for Nanny. But Mom & Dad were here, along with Arnold, Mike, and Preslie (Pam's dad, brother, and Mike's daughter, our niece). Watched a little football and enjoyed the day.
The boys are flying in for Christmas! They will be here from December 21-28, so it will be a great time! Not sure when Mom & Dad will come in, but it will be nice to have the boys here! I'm sure we'll think up some fun things to do.
Mom had doctor appointments in early December and got back great reports and continued changes in therapy. Her knee doctor was very pleased, but did say the recovery may be slower than he originally thought ("it may take up to 3 years"), but he is please with the progress. He may consider a small surgery on the Achilles' tendon to help speed the stretching process along, but (as I understand), it would be in-house and not a huge deal.
We were able to go look at some of the Christmas lights in our area on Monday night (before the final appointment and trip back to Big Spring on Tuesday). One of our friends has a "computerized" light show with about 10,000 lights, so we went by for the show. They had a blast!
Not only that, it looks like Santa has already visited our Christmas tree! There are lots of presents that suddenly appeared!
