Merry Christmas To All My ActiveRain Friends In 2022.  Christmas has always been a day my wife and I have spent with our two son's, but now that my oldest son moved to Bonney Lake, WA we have had to get a little more creative in celebrating Christmas.

My youngest son alternates between spending Christmas with us, and his wife's parents.  This year is his in-laws turn, so he and his wife spent Christmas Eve with us at my house.  After they arrived we FaceTimed with my oldest son, and my gorgeous granddaughter, Elizabeth.  While FaceTiming we open the Christmas present we sent each other.  This is not the same as all of us being together, but it is still special in a different way.  After FaceTiming we had a special lunch/dinner. This year we had stuffed jumbo shrimp, filet mignon, and twice baked potatoes.

Here in ActiveRain we also have a different kind of relationship, but in many ways it is also a family in its own special way. So I would like to take this time to say thank you to all of you for your support during this past year.  This was a challenging year in many ways, but here on this site we still managed to make it a special year.  ActiveRain is a special community because all of you have made it so.

So in this time and season of joy, I want to say thank you for your friendship, and making me feeling like a part of your lives.  I hope that I have made you feel the same.

I hope this Christmas will be a very joyful and special one.  Merry Christmas To All My ActiveRain Friends In 2022.

We also have to get creative for our Christmas gatherings since it depends on when my brother that is divorced has the kids, haha.  Today will be our Christmas celebration, although we did have a nice dinner together without one brother and the kids last night.

Hi George:

A belated Merry Christmas to you and your family. Sounds like you had a wonderful time even though you were not all together in person. I bet with this year's weather there were many whose holiday plans were different than expected.

Happy New Year 2023!

Jeff
