Christmas and the aftermath





These are few of the photos to mark more of the Christmas I survived. Remember the Christmas Special for the Christmas that almost didn't happen. Okay, most of them are about that. But the one with Mr. Heat Miser and his other evil brother, in which the odds had to be won over by faith and love and belief. Well, with my open heart procedure, that is sort of how I felt being able to make it to Williamsburg. We all had our issues this year, so I am grateful we were able to come together as a family. I am sorry that Tommy, Sandy and Little T were not able to be there Christmas morning, but they were certainly there in our hearts.
So, there are a few photos. Not in order, of course. Well, bottom up.
There is the lonely Penguin across the street up on the balcony. I like him up there. Although I am not sure if he is contemplating jumping or not.
Laura doing her tech thing in front of the 4 foot tree we assembled down at Williamsburg. We did not have Wi fi in the time share condos, but the iPhone certainly helped us get info needed fast. Such as, music trivia, bagel locations,(though they had already closed) and weather conditions.
Then William and Edvard being the loungers on the sofa. There have been similar shots before, but I like this because of the lighting and you can see the tree in the reflective window.
And lastly, the photo I took at Wayne and Terry's New Years day Party. It seems very much the same as what would have been at our cousin's house during a get together in Rockford, IL so many years ago. Enjoy the Pics and the memories.

... and how is your new iPhone treating you?
well done (but not over done) write-up, but if you aren't going to use your bragging rights, why should the judges bestow them on you?

Being all together is the best part of Christmas. Winning second and third is the next best - wrote the second place winner to the third place winner.

see, now that's using bragging rights in a modest way - wait did you plan that? getting sibs to brag on you/for you?
