I knew I was in for a special Christmas when I was given my Nanna’s beautiful red wine glasses
The perfect addition to our table Christmas Day
After the Melbourne shows were done
I was lucky enough to be able to squeeze in a quick trip (1 day) in Perth before I headed back to Chicago
I got to see my brother and his family, my girlfriends
But the main purpose, was to see Nan & Pop
Pop’s isĀ living in the nursing home now with Nanna
My Aunty and cousin had decorated their room for them
Nanna has always loved Christmas. She always wears festive clothes, Christmasssy jewelry and this year is no exception
She was showing me her new Christmas outfit and jewelry
I loved looking around their room and recognising some of their ornaments from when I was a kid, spending Christmas at their house
Nanna didn’t have her teeth in, and Pop wouldn’t put his pants on
So yeah, no photos of them
You’re welcome
I cried when I said goodbye – I always do
But I know how lucky I am, to have grandparents who are both in their nineties
That remember me, can have a great chat with me, and even joke with me
And getting to hug them both hard – and tell them just how much I love them
Has already made this the best Christmas
