May Your Days Be Merry and Bright!

Here is my favorite picture from Christmas #2, which is Christmas morning at our house. Our furry babies open their stockings first, then David and I exchange presents and open our presents from Santa. After waffles and bacon, we watch the Disney parade and nap. We go celebrate with my Mimi this afternoon (#3), then David's family tomorrow (#4). Such a joyous time of year!

My sweet Maggie!

Poppy and her Christmas look!

Christmas Eve eve, we have dinner and open presents at my mom and dad's(#1). We have started a new tradition lately of playing LCR. 16 of us played this year, so my nephew went home with $48! He was happy, as you can see:

And Now, On With the Fun!

In the midst of the biopsy craziness, we had Thanksgiving and several birthdays. My sweet husband's 50th was one of them!

To celebrate, we went to dinner downtown and got a window seat for the annual parade of lights. It was so fun! At dinner, I presented him with a book of over 50 notes and memories from many friend, family, and his former and current theatre students. He was so surprised!

Little did he know, the following day a bigger surprise was coming...over 50 of us ambushed his rehearsal at school.

He had students past and present, colleagues, former college professors, and friends there to love on him and wish him another happy 50 + years!

I was so happy that I was able to pull it off. Thank goodness for Facebook and being able to form "secret" groups!!!
