Merry Christmas Eve

The Texas family is here in the 20 degree F weather.  Lucky for us it is sunny and dry and just cold.  Folks in other parts are dealing with snow and rain and ice.  Yuck.

For Scavenger Hunt from Life 50.

Number 4, figure - subbing Chewbacca (Chewie) who had his chin on the table.  (Not good!)  He woke up and moved of course.

Family in Kentucky dealing with weather problems.  Broken pipes and water in the grandson's home.  Yikes.  Hopefully they will get repairs and be home soon.  Brrr.

It is fun being together here.  Cards, cooking, eating and staying warm.  Hope your Christmas Eve is merry and you have fun and family nearby.

Cute sketch of Chewy! Glad you have family around to help you enjoy the crazy weather and that you are safe and warm. It has been bitterly cold here, so I'm only going out if I have to. Merry Christmas!

'Joan, I feel for you. This is probably our worst of winter. We are expecting the high 70s for New Years. Stay safe and warm. Thanks for checking in.

Shay, Lindsay and the babies came over along with Lindsay's mom. Also one of Shay's managers from the coffee shops came. It was a good time. We played games and ate fajitas and some tamales. The manager lady, Danika, is from Minnesota and had never heard of tamales. I think she liked them. They were pretty spicy.

bag blog, what a nice time! Our Christmas was super. Our tamales came out good, well all the food did. And having three of them for 4 days was really nice. And Joanna for a couple. I'm smiling.
