We flew to Washington, D.C. the day after we returned from driving home from the graduation commencement in Nebraska. It was pretty helter-skelter for a bit, but now all of us are ensconced in Kelly’s beautiful and very festive apartment for Christmas. So far, we got to meet Kelly’s boyfriend, Adam for the first time (a very impressive and nice man) and held a party for several friends including Adam and his aunt and uncle who live here in D.C. Uncle Andy and I are running fans–watching not doing–and from the same era–he graduated high school in 1974, I in 1973–so we had a grand time talking about stuff only people from that era would understand. I really hope to see all of them again soon–maybe in Texas. Today, if we get out of bed in time, we are going out to lunch and then on to the Museum of the Bible. We plan to celebrate Christmas tomorrow evening because Lorena, Christian and I all fly out early Christmas morning.
