We love Christmas!

I hear Santa is coming...
Visions of sugar plums danced in his head...

Christmas cookies for breakfast

Hi, cousin Essence. I like your bow...

and your shoes...

I think we're like second cousins so this shouldn't be a problem.



We had the best holiday.

We started out at the Torrone's for Christmas Eve.
We had Tapas for dinner, watched Caddyshack, hung out
with Erin and George and Mary and Fred and
watched Will open gifts (he especially loved his ball
game from George and his easel from Noni and Fred).


We then crashed the McDougall party and loved watching
Santa's route on the NORAD website, playing baseball with
Henry and Tookie, eating their bread pudding and
checking out Santa's workshop which was LOADED with gifts.


Christmas morning we went to Lulu and Bomp's house.
We opened stockings and a few gifts (including my favorite
which was a painting done for me by my Tutu), played with
new toys and ate our first breakfast.


Grandma and Grandpa T.'s house was next.
We ate our second breakfast, hung out with Will's
great grandparents, opened a couple of gifts
and Will danced to the beat of the disney Christmas village.


Home for naps was our next stop (and boy did we need it).


Chris' mom's family party started at 3:30.
We noshed on pigs in a blanket, talked about Joe and
Renee's new baby who is due in a week or so, watched the kids
play, had a fantastic dinner and did our annual gift exchange.


We ended at my parent's house for our second dinner.


It is now 10:22 and Will although EXHAUSTED is still awake.

I think the candy canes straight into his blood stream
may have been a mistake.

Chris and I are the happy, walking dead.

Hope your day was as fun as ours!
