Let the Christmas season begin!

Now that Thanksgiving has past, the Christmas season has begun. We participated in some of the "Black Friday" festivities, helping Michael's and Fred Meyer to have a profitable quarter. I starved myself for most of the day in order to ready myself for the meal I've waited all year for--a home made Club Sandwich. Four slices a of bacon, three slices of sourdough bread, leftover turkey, and what seemed to be at least a quarter cup of mayo. I ... felt ... sleepy ... in ... 5-4-3-2-1 minutes.

The evening was finished off with a beautiful fire and a family viewing of Wizard of Oz.

Today, the tacky inflatable Santa's are going up ...

Season's Greetings!
