Merry Christmas!!

Well Christmas this year was a little sad and very odd, but we did have a house-full and we pulled off the dinner feast! Our two neighbors are single (Liz and Jim) so we invited them both as well as Geoff's co-worker Ed and his wife, which was nice - we pulled crackers and ate too much and then played the train game for the afternoon!

We went through two trees this year, we got our live tree a little too early - he was very round and short, but a cute one in a Charlie Brown's Christmas kind of way! However he dropped all his needles about a week out and caused an awful mess so we bought a fake one on sale at the last minute to make sure we had one for Christmas day! (Can you tell which is which?!!)

Christmas eve was spent wrapping stocking gifts and tracking Santa's trip on Norad, and we saw him fly over you all right before heading to bed! We also watched It's a Wonderful Life (one of my favorites!) only to find out that Geoff has never seen it before!!

We missed you all terribly, Christmas without family and close friends around was just not the same.
