With the family gatherings over, we took the day off and had our own personal Christmas today. Here’s a tiny sampling of the day:







BUT the best gift was my new Peanuts Christmas Train:


SQUEEEEE! Jeffrey is the most generous spouse and never fails to bring me to tears with his amazing gifts.
Sure, I got Jeffrey lots of gifts, but he outdid me once again, and has been doing so for 25 years. Although I think I won the consolation prize for this little personalized item:

Tomorrow, the BFJ arrives for Christmas: Take 3, then his hubby will join us on Saturday to celebrate New Year’s Eve together.
I’m exhausted from all this celebrating and will probably sleep for the entire month of February.
My cup runneth over…
Oh my gosh. The “25 years” ornament is precious!!!

It looks like this is take 2 of take 2? Many of your posts have been doubled recently.
Uh oh. It looks like Harvey is hitting the bottle. You may need to stage an intervention. You know what happens when folks get into the gin.
The ornament is adorable, but five years from now you are going to look at it and think you were both clean-shaven in 2022.

Those are awesome gifts! Hey, please be careful when you’re out having fun. I don’t know if you read my last entry, but my BFF got COVID for Christmas. 😦

We’re still masking as much as possible, avoiding crowds, and staying home more often than not.
