Due to illness and busy schedules, the Ponkas celebrated a disjointed Christmas. Mom and dad sent their gifts to Joey and his family, and watched them open the gifts over a video call. We gave Steve his Christmas presents when we went to Chicago for Blue Man Group in February. We exchanged gifts with my parents in late January around my dad's birthday. It was all over the place. The last Christmas gift exchange happened when Joey, Christine, Caleb, Emily, and Uncle Steve were in town for Easter - hence Chreaster.

a decent picture
Finally, at the end of March, we wrapped up Christmas🎄, and celebrated Easter 🥚in a timely fashion. It was a fun, quick visit with our Chicago family. I regret that I don't have any Easter pics of Mom & Dad, but rest assured there were there, and were gracious, generous hosts. Onward into spring 2024...
