Christmas With A Cast

A week and a half before Christmas I fell and pushed my left elbow out of joint ending up with a cast on my arm. Dawn came up and spent the week before Christmas helping me get combed and dressed, doing housework, and wrapping my Christmas presents. Despite what a first seemed like a huge disaster, it all worked out into a blessing as we got to be with our grandkids a whole week instead of a couple of days like planned. Here are some pictures of our Christmas.

The fellows (Dwight & Randy) show off one of their gifts.



Dana helping Case with one of his gifts.



The big smile says it all. William was so excited to get a real tool set like his dad's.


Matching hats and scaves that I crocheted for Annette and her doll.


Best buddies- William and Case with the hats and scarf that I crocheted for them.

  1. Dorcas,
    So happy to see your update! I've checked several times :o) I tried to leave a comment before, but it wouldn't go through for some reason, so I'm hoping this one will. Hopefully your arm is a lot better by now! You have a beautiful family and your grandchildren are adorable!! Trust you all have a wonderful and blessed New Year.
