Christmas this year was - as always - exciting!
We finished painting and rearranging our living room just in time!
Our dining room, too....
Lauren and Leslie gave Mom their first afghan that they're making together.
Mom and Dad's main gift to the kids was a wonderful collection of Lamplighter books. We all love evenings when Mom reads out loud to us for sometimes an hour or more at a time. It's so cozy and homey!
Some friends sent each of the ladies in our family a lovely apron. (Thank you, Zimmermans!)
Dad took everyone on a lovely boat trip to a nearby island on Christmas Eve. We didn't even come close to having a white Christmas this year, since the temperatures were in the lower 70's almost everyday the second half of December!
This was the first day that we had Paton. Mom arranged to pick Paton up from her (Paton's) "birthplace" a few days before Christmas, and we kept her at a neighbor's house until Christmas Eve. The surprise for Dad was a complete success!
Isn't she perfectly adorable?
Don't let that innocent expression fool you! She's really a pain at times, but none of us can stay mad at her for long. Could anyone?
Mom is planning on posting our {belated} Christmas newsletter up here in the next few days.
Wishing each of you a very belated very merry Christmas from our family to yours!

Oh, I love the apron picture! The aprons are so very pretty but the ladies wearing them are even more beautiful. :)
