7:30 am we got started on our presents in our Christmas jammies

This was Christmas Eve at T & M's house. These are the ribbonettes waving in that famous Queen Anne style.

Our three grown women.

Oh boy are they a H generation or what.

Four M generations.

Boston couldn't understand the peanut butter and jelly dance.

T & M at their tree

The three Christmas elves

The three Mrs. Clauses

Cortney's gift to T & M was to continue the blue spruce tree Christmas tree lights at their new house.

One of the funniest parts of our day was looking out our window and seeing our neighbor plowing up his garden on Dec 25th
Kathy's Christmas flowers from Jason.

From our house to yours

MERRY CHRISTMAS:)

Hope your Christmas was just as fun.

Love D&D

Our viewing of the lights

They had light displays that took an hour to drive through and see

Just hugh

Our latest company

Cuz Ray from Tenn. got here on Sunday.

He and Beepa went through old family photo's to figure out who is who.We had the best time with Ray and his Daughter Priscilla.

Planning a visit over to her house in January.
Kathy just had to show off the warm temps we had on Friday. (68 degrees)While everyone was getting bombed with snow over the weekend, she was wearing her sleeveless shirt and flip flops.

Well Boston is adjusting fairly well to life in a house full of women. But his bladder has some issues. As I'm not getting much sleep due to the puppy Kathy gave me the night off last night. But her patience ran thin when he had his second "accident".

So back he came to meThursday was Christmas Cookie making day.

This family tradition dates back to 4 or more generations.

This rolling pin was Beepa's mother. Fourth generation cookie master.

Kathy is trained by the do joe Christmas cookie master Beepa!

A little wine while you work is a good thing.

NAUGHTY

NICE (Hee Hee)

Caught in the act

Now we let the icing dry over night

Do Joe Christmas Cookie Master Beepa has wild Beckie Two socks, who has recently gotten her tubes removed, living in this do joe so to save the cookies from destruction we had to let them dry in the guest room and shut the doors.

We are getting company this Sunday as Beepa's cuz Ray from Tenn. is visiting with his daughter. And we have the famous Christmas cookies baked and frosted for all to enjoy.

With Christmas just next week and shopping all done I have time to thank you for being my friend, my sister. my brother, my parents and loving me just the way I am. So many blessing we received this past year that I don't even need a present under the tree. (that's not true I love presents)

Merry Christmas everyone.
