Christmas 2006

 

  This was a fun year, though we got a late start. The decorations were a year old so half didn't work. For Christmas Eve, we went to the Washington DC area for traditional family faire. Then, off to more family to sleep. Then to more family for Christmas Day gala. Finally, back to home for the final family fun fest. And we made cookies. Merry Christmas

  Buster with Gadget Merry Christmas from Buster 'en Ribbone (that's french for Buster in Ribbon).

  Happy Neices Christmas gifts always make people happy.

  The traditional Christmas Tree wading in Booty. Its a Douglas FIr - $60 worth. But its soft and easy to decorate. Tree makers could probably make them out of green cardboard. Xmas Tree

  Junior Like I said earlier - Christmas makes people happy. Here's junior swaddled in presents.

  The aftermath of booty explosion. Here we reflect in the joy of family, our gifts, our non-booty gifts, and, for some, what we will do with our gift cash. Aftermath
