Christmas Eve

Friends,

In typical Christmas Eve fashion we enjoyed

the day and evening at home.

 

Lily decided on a Native American Theme for our meal this year.

 

She was inspired after staying

 in Karen and Brian's Native American

office during Thanksgiving.

 

We decided on a Bison Roast,

which isn't an easy item to find,

but we were able to secure the last one in

the Chicagoland vicinity in the nick of time.

 

We wrote our letters to Santa.

 

 

Diligently reporting

how very, very good we have been

this year.

We snuggled in our Christmas jammies.

 

And enjoyed our home for the holidays.

While we waited...

...and waited for Santa.

And by some kind of miracle,

he arrived again this year.

 

I don't know how I keep pulling this off.

 

But I do.

 

I was rewarded the next morning

with a special surprise gift from Charlotte.

 

A box of marker-ed tissue paper and bows

from my wrapping station.

She was impressed with herself,

for pulling off such a surprise and impressive gift.

 

Merry Christmas to All.
