Merry Christmas Eve!

 On a wintery Christmas Eve, with just three of us, there was no need to rush or scurry.  We just did what we wanted to do.

Step 1:  Bake cookies for Santa!

Do NOT miss any of the batter - get every ounce of it!!

Step 2: Take lots of pictures!

Even if your husband thinks you're a weirdo and hates having his picture taken!   Take 'em anyway!!

Someday, we'll have the wonderful photos to remember happy times.

Step 3:  Open presents!!

Of the gifts I gave Eric, this one was the best.  ha!

Aaaaaand, here's a gun.  I think it was a toy M16.  I dunno.  Ask Ramsey.

A beautiful onyx chess set was in this box.  Nice!  I used to play on a tan/beige and cream onyx chess set with my grandmother when I was young.  I loved it!

Hmm.. what could this be.. in a long skinny box?

Ya, another gun. ...some sort of toy long rifle.  Again, no idea what it is... ask the kid.

Cold hard cash!

Ramsey loves him some cash.

And a check for mo money!

The kiddo brought in a good haul, with Army and Delta Force t-shirts, a Delta Force baseball hat, some pants, camo Dude shoes, a pair of new tennies, boxing gloves, a new gaming controller, socks, plus two new board games for his teacher (how sweet was that?!)

Jango got a chew toy.... and a beef stick.

Eric helped Ramsey put his AK-47 together.

Step 4:  Put out cookies and milk for Santa, plus carrots for the reindeer.  We left them on the table this year so Jango wouldn't try to eat the cookies.

Step 5: More pictures before bedtime!!!

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!
