A Christmas Post....

Its the eve of Christmas Eve. I've baked a pecan pie, made a coffee cake, did a bazillion loads of laundry and batches of cookies, wrapped gifts... All I have left is a half day of work tomorrow.
Here is what we've been up to lately:

Sink shampoos:





(Lulu has had a dry scalp due to the cold weather, so I had to put some oil on her head and she ended up looking like a greaser baby. At least her skin was soft.) And thanks to Lola for the hand me down jammies, comfiest ever.

The Tree:

Here I am attempting to photograph with a soft flash, candlelight setting, or no flash, to get that soft glow look and it never comes out quite right. But our tree is beautiful and has lots of Gus-made ornaments which are the best.

Lulu eating a pork chop and me coaxing her to talk:



Merry Christmas!

Its that time of year....

When I gather the little cherubs around the glowing Christmas tree.... and attempt to photograph them for the Christmas card.

Its always chaos.

Here are some of the "Fail" pics. enjoy. I hope someone gets a kick out of this, I wasn't so happy the other night.
