RE: Christmas At the Peninsula Hotel in Chicago

in Photo-essay11 months ago

Hi, Melinda.
I see that you had a wonderful Christmas! A wonderful place, it feels like the Christmas spirit has permeated the entire hotel and restaurant there.

I'm wishing I had food photos to share but remembering to take photos comes second when you are having a marvelous time!

I'm finding that you and I have more and more in common. I also forget to take pictures of food. My daughters remind me of this.

My granddaughter?

How old is your granddaughter? My eldest granddaughter turned 16 old 2 weeks ago. She's coming to my house for the holidays tomorrow, but I'm not at home yet.

How long do you have Christmas holidays? This year, our vacation starts from December 30th to January 8th.

Sort:  

My family holidays are mostly done after Jan. 1st. Although many that are Othodox celebrate on Jan. 7th. It's a festive time of year.

I am still having a hard time believing that my darling granddaughter is 17 and will be off to University next fall. It's seems like only yesterday she was sitting on my lap asking me to read books to her. They grow up so quickly!

You also have a leapfrog with holidays. :) Christmas lasts for 2 weeks.

Does the granddaughter not sit on her grandmother's lap now? 😂😂😂
I stayed with my daughter for 5 days between my trip to Abu Dhabi and hung out with my grandson. He is already over 6 months old! He starts to get to his feet holding onto me and he has also learned to sit on his own.

It's so fun to have a baby in the family! I miss that!
