Christmas Card

 We got our Christmas cards out late this year.  Before Christmas, but probably not in time for them to be received before Christmas.

So, here's what we sent:

 

 

 

 

 

Christmas 2024

Dear Friends and Family

Another busy year has passed, and this year has brought us the exciting news of the birth of our first grandchild.    Our son Darcy and his wife Jody gave birth to a baby boy, Galileo Brewster Sherwood on June 17, 2024.  We went to North Carolina in July to meet the newest member of the Sherwood family.

In April, Nick, Nancy and Buddy our dog, drove to a KOA outside of Dayton, Ohio to witness the total eclipse of the sun.   Buddy was unimpressed, but we thought it was pretty awesome!

In May, Nancy went to Maine to visit Austin and then house/cat-sit while Austin’s travels west included his annual Burning Man pilgrimage.  There was so much travel by the 5 Sherwood children this year, we can’t remember everywhere they went.

While in Maine, Nancy was able to re-connect with her friend, Marti Daniels who she knew from when we lived in Tromsø, Norway in the 80s.  Nancy also enjoyed exploring Maine with Austin’s next-door neighbor and Nancy’s friend Sylvia.

In October, Nancy had knee replacement surgery on her right knee, so now she has a matching pair (her left knee was replaced a few years ago).

Nick went on a trans-Atlantic cruise from the UK to the States in December.   Nancy’s sister, Carol stayed with Nancy to help her with her recuperation.

We are looking forward to having a full house for Christmas this year with all five kids, their partners and spouses, and of course the new first-Christmas star of the show, Galileo!
