Merry Christmas!
We would have a small gathering
at our home today around this tree
Laurie had prepared our dining table
for the evening's festive meal
On this Christmas night it would just be Laurie and me sharing the day withVanessa, Michael, Mary and Jacob.
We first opened gifts
Most were for these two
irrepressible scallywags . . .
. . . but there were some for the adults
Simple pleasures . . .
. . . are often the best
This wine glass ornament . . .
. . . looked GREAT on Gigi's tree!
Michael liked the Maté infusion cup
that we got for him in Buenos Aires
Mary and Vanessa both loved these
collectible dolls from the Wicked movie
Proud Grandparents indeed
"You'll shoot your eye out!"
Both Michael and Jacob got one for Christmas but not from us.
They opted to get into partial
Civil War gear and use our backyard
as a shooting range
Not sure about his choice of
combat boots today
Jacob donned protective googles
that he bought at a war surplus store
in Oceanside outside of the U.S. Marine
Corps Camp Pendleton
The afternoon ended with all four of their eyes still healthy and in place.
From the net . . .

TOO BAD OREGON DUCK FANS!
We need this one!
Ollie Matson
RB, Los Angeles Rams, 1959-1962
This Hall of Fame RB also played for the Chicago Cardinals in 1952 and from 1954-1958, the Detroit Lions in 1963 and for the Philadelphia Eagles from 1964-1966.
In 1959, the Rams traded NINE players to the Cardinals for him.
A great player who was fun to watch in his prime.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
EVERYONE!
