Here I sit at my favorite
B&B (my dad’s house) the day before Christmas Eve & I think that I’m
mostly ready for Christmas. Although it might just be that sense of resignation
that one gets after it’s too late to do more anyway. Ha!

It
was our 23rd anniversary & we celebrated by going to see the
Nutcracker at the Dayton Ballet. Fun! Dr. M took a few pictures of one of the
department store window displays they had in the lobby. They were pretty cool.

Our house is pretty hilarious to
me. Dr. M found a dog’s Christmas costume & put it on Polly Bug. And then
there’s the polar bear & penguin train…
The moon!

Pinky says, “Peace out man!”
We had our office Christmas
party today. I brought the (bought) decorated cake. Someone else brought her
famous homemade bourbon cake. Which one do you think was gone by the end of the
day? Ha!

Dr. M took a lot of really great
pictures today. If you haven’t already, you should
go check them out. In the meantime, I had a little bit of fun with one of
them.
This was my “dirty Santa” gift
from the office party. Pretty great, huh? I can’t wait to try out all the
different teas.

I love this yard!!
I was washing dishes & asked
Dr. M to tuck my hair behind my ears. This is what he did – ha!

Today
we drove down to NC, but since it was rainy & dreary the whole way we didn’t
take any pictures. Fortunately, I took one before we left the house. When we
moved in we took the closet doors off of one of the closets to give us easier
access to our clothes. I had the bright idea of dragging one of them into the
living room to put our Christmas cards on. Just call me Martha. Heh.
Go to Mamma Fran’s blog here
to see the blogs of all the other Project 365 participants. Have a great week!
Most of our photos are taken with a 12
megapixel Nikon D5000 DSLR, using a 55-200mm zoom lens. This is the camera that
Dr. M takes with him most days. He also takes pictures with our old reliable 7
megapixel Canon Powershot A710. The Bug uses our new Nikon Coolpix S6200 most of the
time. If you’re interested in which camera was used for a particular shot, just
ask!
Love what you did with the deer photograph. Take care and have a wonderful and very Merry Christmas.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, Stephen! She's a nut, that Bug :-)
DeleteGood stuff as always. Glad you made it "home" safely. I've never had bourbon cake, but it sounds interesting. Merry Christmas!

Hmmmm...methinks it was rum cake. I had a piece of it...yum!
DeleteOops :)
Deletei think you will like vanilla tea - i drink it quite a bit. The snoopy yard and the polar bear/penguin train are both great fun -= merry xmas bug xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Pixie - Merry Christmas to you & yours too!
DeleteWhat is a "dirty Santa"? I expected something more vulgar than tea!
ReplyDeleteOur version is that we drew numbers & the first person unwraps a gift & then the second person gets to steal that gift or select a new one under the tree. I was the last person so I got to have my pick of all the gifts :)
DeleteAnything that involves Snoopy rocks.
ReplyDeleteIt DOES!
DeleteLove the closet door idea! Merry Christmas to you and Dr M!
ReplyDeleteShe was inspired! Merry Christmas!
DeleteHappy anniversary to you and Dr. M! I love the idea with the Christmas cards on the door. I'm always debating where to put our cards.
ReplyDeleteIf I had been at your office party, I would have had a big piece of both cakes.
Thanks! Yes, she was inspired, and yes to both cakes!
DeleteCatching up on all the posts I missed while I was being a good girl and actually getting my work done instead of goofing off on the web. Love the polar bear/penguin train and the dressed to impress deer.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ellen! I hate when work gets in the way of goofing off on the web :-)
DeleteLove the closet idea. Love all the shots. So very festive
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sweet Pea! My Bug has her moments :-)
