*^*^*^Merry Christmas*^*^*^

We worked our arses off yesterday, baking, wrapping, cleaning...entertaining wild and excited children.

We were rewarded with an evening of fun. And you will NOT BELIEVE the gift I got from my brother. More on that later...

This morning, because we have the Best. Children. Ever. We didn't get up until NINE O'Clock in the morning. That's 9:00 am...on CHRISTMAS MORNING. Who are these children and what did I do to be blessed with them?

We opened gifts, I got two of the four things I wanted...plus a few things I didn't know I wanted. The kids proved once again that Christmas is for kids, Pants proved it's also for lovers...and having Christmas with all of them is a blessing.

Pants also proved that sometimes he can have obsessions that never seem to die.

We had snow and toys and cinnamon rolls and pajamas well past noon and visits from friends and Bloody Mary's and, a little later, tropical drinks in Tiki Mugs....

I love Christmas and I love it even more with my very own family.

Merry Christmas Everyone.
