Happy Birthday, Chris!

Today is my eldest son's 49th birthday. Chris was the best Christmas present I could ever receive. On Christmas Day 1965, I had a brand new baby boy and a candy cane on my breakfast tray.

It's been a lovely day here, blue skies and a high of 65°, great weather for our walks, and a prelude to even better weather Christmas Day.

It has been cooler in the evenings. We had homemade chicken soup for supper. After dinner we did some prep work for the veggies we're taking to Christmas dinner tomorrow. We watched White Christmas that we had recorded. It was made in 1954, but the version we saw has been digitally enhanced and is in HD. Somehow this takes a bit away from its nostalgia effect, but it's still fun to watch.
