But wait! There's more!!

Yes, there's more! 
It was the day after Christmas and all through the house,
Not a critter was stirring, not even a mouse.
I'm at the 'puter, writing this blog,
I think I caught all the mice ... I moved the bird feeder so that the seeds that fall are in the alley!! 
And Robin is taking a nap, and Buddy is holding his new favorite toy/pillow Teddy Bear - see the photo below!
And Sophia is trying to get her hair untangled from putting on the sweater that we gave her. It is a very thick warm natural wool burr sweater made in Ecuador. All is normal.





Here is Buddy with Teddy Bear. Margaret and Cricket,  Buddy's girlfriends, gave this to him for Christmas. Thank-You!



The dinner table that Marnie and Mac set for all of us.
In the photo,
Robin, Margaret, Mac, Marnie and Chris. I'm taking the photo and Sophia is ..........

.. filling some stockings!

Prime Rib Roast beef
Mashed Potatoes and Gravy (two of them!)
Fresh Breads
Brussels Sprouts

Dried Corn
Celery Root Salad
Berry Pie
Yule Log Cake
Fresh Whipped Cream
And as the saying goes - at least my Dad used to say this, "Eat, drink and be Merry for tomorrow you will be dieting!"

Margaret and Chris are verbally sparring. See Chris' look? Interesting.

Sophia is modelling her sweater.

Such a beaming smile. It is itchy and full of burrs. It may win the ugly sweater contest next year, but Robin thinks it looks really nice on her.

We are getting close to going back to normal, or something like that. Tonight we've been invited to a Latke Cook-Off at Joe and Rachael Levitch's! Sounds like more wonderful food. Then a couple of days to re-group. A field trip to Nampa Owyhee Fiddle Shop Friday. Saturday, a New Year's Eve Dinner at La Cafe de Paris in Boise. Happy Holidays everyone! Wonder if my Doctor reads this blog.
