REINDEER SIGHTING!!!!
Yes I bought reindeer antlers for Cooper! He even allowed me to take his pic but we compromised...Snoopy had to stay in his mouth!!!
We had Christmas Eve with my family and Christmas Day we visited with Dave's Mom and Sister, here are a look at some of my pictures...the stockings were hung with a wintery blast of snow in the background...
Then one of the girls posing by the tree...
Then one of Angie and Mike... ok Mike was goofing around in this pic so had to take another one! Yep, this one is better of him! But that is Mike ALWAYS being goofy!
These are of my family and their pets, yes we had three dogs here this Christmas Eve... Lois is holding Izzy and Margie (the one in gold is holding Maxi), Maxi is really Nancy's dog so here is one of Nancy - opps Nancy has her eyes closed and the man behind her is her hubby Jim, so let me give you another one of Nancy..
Cooper thinks Izzie and Maxie are toys, so keeping them apart was a real joy!!
Here is hubby and my brother in law, Jim sharing some bubbly, my sister Lois in munching on some goodies in the background! (caught her) And, here is our tree with all it's presents underneath - you could say we love to give or this is commercialism at it's best!
This one is of Dave and me.. Yes I am "squishing him" and what is with the eye makeup Mary, and the hair - I think I was channeling "Dolly Parton" oh well too tired to care at that point.
And if you want a real "treat" watch this video of my 86 yr old Mom reciting "Twas the Night Before Christmas" and then what is this???
I am "getting" a quilt for Christmas?????? Dave's nephew's, Wife, Sam (remember Ryan and Sam, I made them a baby quilt a while ago, well Sam is quilting now and she made this for me, it is supposed to be used on a table, but it is too precious for a table, so I draped it over my couch in Living Room - I just can't believe I finally have a Christmas Quilt that someone made actually for me!!!Thank you Sam!!!!!!! The colors in the quilt are just perfect for our home and she even made her binding and you should see how perfectly she put the binding on! I am in awe! Sam is such a sweety , thank you sooooooooooooooooooooo much, Sam, Love Ya!!
Well, that is Christmas at the Burns', until next time....
Happy New Year everyone and God Bless All of You,
Many, Many Grateful Hugs,
Mary
