Our day was Merry and Bright...and yes! Our Christmas was WHITE!

Not to sound like a sappy Bing Crosby record.. but MAN... oh MAN did we have a spectacular Christmas! We had a nice lazy morning and then took the dog for a walk at about 11:30. Coming back (it was a long one) at about 1pm, it started in snowing. It kept up, at times blizzard like, the rest of the day and into the evening. We felt so lucky- not only are we enjoying the first Christmas at the new house... but then... even more perfect....we get a WHITE Christmas! We were giddy.
Vil and Summit enjoying the fire and watching me cook our dinner. Look how beautiful the snow is out the window behind them....
And it just kept coming....
This picture just cracks me up. Traci, Mike and boys sent these great slippers and Summit grabbed ahold of the packaging on them. He tugged and tugged at it until I nearly slid across the floor. This was taken just after he managed to tear it off (and thankfully left the slippers in one piece). He's very good at opening gifts- we give him a wrapped present and he lays down with the gift perfectly in his paws and starts ripping the paper with his teeth. When the package is open, the paper is all ripped, but the gift is always in one piece. We didn't take any of him doing that this year, but Vil managed to get the camera for this picture.
More White Christmas! BRRRRRR.... One little Summit... and a partridge in a pear tree...

That's hilarious! I'll have to start saving the tags off any new clothes to send to Summit next year!

Thanks for sharing. :-) We're glad you had a good Christmas. We did too. Give Summit a scratch for us.
