It Was a Merry Christmas

Mark and I had breakfast and gifting in the morning. Mark got me some stuff from Victoria’s Secret (sorry, no pictures and some UGG boots (made in New Zealand!)

After noon, we headed out to my Mom’s place in Huson where there was more eating and gifting. Got some cool stuff for Christmas. One of the really cool things I got was an eco-sphere. It’s a totally enclosed glass ecosystem. There’s little shrimpies swimming around and everything is self-contained. It’s really pretty cool. I think all the gifts we got for people were well received.

After dinner of roast beef and yorkshire pudding, we watched A Christmas Story. It was a very nice afternoon/evening. More pictures are on Flickr.

I hope everyone else had a very Merry Christmas!

Nostalgia - Yule Log

OK, how many of you grew up with the Yule Log on TV? I don’t know if there is any around here in Missoula, but I found a sample of what we used to watch on KOFY TV20. The best part was when they tossed another log on. You’d see the hand reach in with the log. I don’t know why, but that cracked us up.

Well, I finally got the photos from the Christmas party put up. It was at a restaurant attached to the Hilton Garden Inn called Blue Canyon.
