Sunday, November 30, 2008 6:20 PM CST Altogether it's been a very blessed holiday weekend as we enjoyed Thanksgiving with friends and neighbors, had fun doing the holiday decorations & shopping, and our dear Marin has been feeling pretty well throughout. While she's not as expressive as she'd like to be, she certainly enjoyed visits from friends on Thursday and Friday and appreciates the small, brightly colored Christmas we've placed in the upstairs TV room for her, that's in addition to the beautiful angel tree she has continuously lit in her bedroom. She's actually brighter and more alert in recent days and her appetite remains strong. The nice weather here has allowed us to keep the windows open at times and the fresh air indoors is very energizing.
If boredom is a challenge, Marin continues to have a great attitude. We've enjoyed some good holiday movies on cable the last few days and things are destined to get a little more exciting here over the next 24-hours as we welcome a visit from Uncle Ron & Aunt Teryl and their three boys. Michael will be extra pumped with his three like-aged cousins in for a visit and Marin is sure to enjoy the excitement. We hope all of you have been able to enjoy family and friends this weekend as well. As always, we appreciate hearing from so many of you near and far.
Happy Holidays,
Marin & Nancy, Matt, Camlyn & Michael
