Hope you had a great Christmas!  Attached are photos from our Christmas out here in the Hills.  On Christmas Eve, all of us were together (Barb, Ann, Wendy, Merida, and all our spouses, kids, and grandkids).  Wendy cooked Italian on Christmas Eve, making Cioppino and Chicken Carbonara - yummy!  After supper we unwrapped presents.  Barb received a puppy for Christmas - she was so good!  Barb and Wendy got me a gift certificate for a tattoo - I probably turned 6 sheets of red.  Originally I thought I would get it on my birthday, but since the girls will be in Eureka, I think I will do it on St. Patrick's Day instead (since I want a shamrock). 
 
We sat down to the traditional Christmas dinner - ham, mashed potatoes, etc. I have to admit it was all good.  We are still full today (the 26th).   CLICK TO ENLARGE
