Christmas 2007

This was our 2nd married Christmas, but our first Christmas where we celebrated just the two of us...we loved having Chris' parents with us last holiday season, but it was also nice to have the morning just to ourselves. We had a fire and opened a few gifts. Our main gift to ourselves was a very nice new digital camera, which we have already gotten plenty of good use out of! The kitties - Shadow & Lacey got some treats & new toys that they are enjoying. The dogs - Abby & Ellie got new toys and some rawhide that they quickly went to work on. After opening gifts at our house, we had brunch at my parents house and later that evening had Christmas dinner with the extended family. Dad's "twin" Betty Hogsett made him his own Southern style Coconut Pie - that he reluctantly shared with us later in the evening. Here are some pictures to share...

Decorated for Christmas

It only took a couple weeks to get it all done, but we are finally decorated for the Holidays! At least the weather has cooperated with some nice snow! Here are some pictures...
