This past week we celebrated Christmas - just as so many other folks around the world did. There were different traditions, different foods, different gifts....but mostly the same Christmas. The joy and happiness of the season permeated the entire world - well most of it anyway.
While we didn't decorate as effusively as in years past (we have a new kitten and didn't want him climbing the tree and knocking it down and breaking ornaments), we did put up a tree - with lights and a topper - and stockings; couldn't NOT put up stockings.
And while we were sleeping, Santa came!
And The Skipper cast himself as the Safekeeper of the Gifts!
He abdicated his job once the gifts started to be unwrapped.
Gilligan, on the other hand, is an Old Hand at Christmas....he simply couldn't be bothered.
We invited our neighbor and another couple to Christmas dinner. It was wonderful to spend a few hours with friends and catch up. We got to talk to the Grands that evening and our son and his amazing wife, too. Honestly, it doesn't get any better!
Well, 2018 is so close to being done that I'm going to call it a wrap! We only have 3 more days left and I don't see anything crazy or noteworthy happening to make me want to add a post.
We hope all of our family and friends (and anyone reading this is truly a friend!) have a safe and Happy New Year. May 2019 be better and happier and more filled with love and joy that years before.
Thanks for stopping by.
