It's 2:22 on Christmas Day as I write this. Christmas has so far been a lovely, laid-back day.
Chuck, Melanie and I took Nick to visit his other grandparents yesterday -- a day spent in the car for the most part, long and tiring, but worth it for what we accomplished.
I love our Christmas. Tonight, we'll go to Melanie's house to celebrate Michael's birthday. A few years ago, he offered to cook his own birthday dinner with British foods, and that quickly became a holiday tradition. We will celebrate our formal family Christmas in a couple of days. I find I can always procrastinate making the home-made gifts that are part of that celebration to the last minute, no matter when it occurs.
Gotta go -- work to do, fun to have. Merry Christmas to all.
The Three Musketeers
Me (on the right), wtih two of my favorite people: daughter Melanie in the crazy hat and sunglasses; and grandson Nick, acting kind of goofy. The photo was taken while we were on a trip to Santa Barbara.
Nuclear Family
Photo taken on the occasion of Chuck's 60th birthday. Our three daughters, from left, Melanie, Holly and Nan, had just done a series of skits to mark each decade. It was hilarious!
My Grandkids
Nick and Ava, on the day Ava was born. Both precious.
