MERRY CHRISTMAS

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE

Have a great big, wonderful, happy day where ever you may be.

Christmas Day

Christmas dawned very cold and with a dusting of snow. But that didn't impact the day at all







































Lots and lots of presents.



















My brother acting silly. The bow is his Christmas goiter.























I got these from Ed and Jennifer. They're mittens but the top part of the mitten comes off and you have your fingers in a half glove. This way if you're out in the cold you can talk on your cell phone without taking anything off.








































This is the wind chimes I got. It's going to look very cool on my front porch.










































The chocolate extravaganza. So good you could eat it without opening the bag.

















Jennifer celebrates her Missouri State hoody sweatshirt.






































A great collection of Peanuts items.

Christmas Eve Fire

The weather turned cold and rainy. The rain eventually turned into sleet and freezing rain and then finally into snow. This all happened on Christmas Eve. We stayed in and had a nice dinner and a very nice fire. We opened our stockings. A great deal of candy; a great deal.

Apple Pie

We made an apple pie for Christmas dinner. I'll let you know how it turns out. But it sure looks good.

Out Buying Wine

My Christmas present to my brother was a shopping trip to the local wine store. The first picture is before we went out. The next two show what we got.

Decorations At O'Hare

There were some very spectacular decorations at O'Hare. I admired them while I waited for my plan to Springfield.
