Christmas and Stuff!

 This is not a reflection on how our Christmas went!  Well, maybe it is.  If you think about the Charlie Brown Christmas story (my favorite cartoon) Linus reminds the gang what Christmas is all about when he quotes Luke 2.  I love that part.  It makes me tear up every time.  Charlie Brown then takes his spindly tree and decides it is indeed enough, because the tree isn't what Christmas is about anyway.  My tomato is celebrating that as well!  On Christmas Day, one of the only traditions we continued was the reading of Luke 2.  It was a low-key, special day with Mom and Pat!  (I only wish I had more pictures of all the things we did while she was here!)

 While Mom was here, we went "moose-hunting."  The shots we took were of the digital kind opposed to the ballistic variety, but we had lot's of fun with our game!


 We also took time to enjoy the scenery with shimmering mountains and blazing sunsets.



And finally, Pat has discovered the ultimate slipper-warmer.  He is so smart.
