A Very Merry Christmas Was Had!

Cool Starfish

Christmas came and went and with it came good food, lots of family and lots o' gifts. I didn't take as many photos as I wanted, but here are the highlights.

The catnip toys Le Doug's mom sent over we so strong that The Boys tried to chew right through the wrapping. That's some serious 'nip.

I made sure the stockings were hung by the chimmney with care.

I took no photos of myself on Christmas morning, except for this one with my new Baccarat necklace, courtesy of Le Doug. Gotta dig a guy who knows good jewelry.

Le Doug looks forward to a year of trout with his new trout calender. Apparently these sorts of fly fishing items are hot back in Colorado, where he's from. Go cut throats!

Soon it was time to head over to Frank and Sue's for more family fun. Here is her tree that housed some of the many gifts that would surface on Monday.

As well as this weird, life-like toy horse that actually moves and makes noises.


La Madre et Moi. My hair was doing strange things (a case of over-moussing, perhaps?) so I kept photos to a minimum. If only I had had such sense in middle school.

There were a lot of presents...and a lot of leftover wrapping paper.

Hope everyone had a great holiday!
