“Mommy, Daddy…Santa came!\u00a0 He\u00a0bring me Transformer ‘puter!”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Sorry, son…Target was all sold out of them when Santa went shopping, but he did find a big ‘ole t-rex that roars.\u00a0 It seemed to be a good second choice…he still liked it.\u00a0 Anya was fairly happy getting her Dora doll with a seahorse chariot.<\/p>\n

We had a good Christmas Eve, as well.\u00a0 My mom’s side of the family came over, sans Great-grandma, who was sick. \ud83d\ude41\u00a0 We had a yummy dinner of goat cheese and cranberry stuffed pork loin, mashed potatoes and butternut squash, corn casserole and mixed veggies in a cream sauce.\u00a0 All low-fat, of course.\u00a0 It was a good time.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

My mom, dad and sister stayed over that night and we had some good family time.\u00a0 The kids got some nice presents and mommy got some cute pictures.<\/p>\n

Anya had a tough time, though.\u00a0 When Grandpa, Grandma and Aunt Stephy came to stay overnight on Christmas Eve, they brought this with them:<\/p>\n

\"poor<\/p>\n

Poor, poor Jake.\u00a0 He has a busted toe, which no one knows how, and he can’t get along very well.\u00a0 Instead of leaving him in his kennel at the farm, alone to face the cold, they brought him with them.\u00a0 Anya was vexed…very, very vexed.\u00a0 She does not like dogs.\u00a0 At all.\u00a0 In fact, we are well accustomed to hearing hysterical screaming if they deign to sniff her body or breathe air too close to her.\u00a0 She is a little afraid of them.\u00a0 Of course, she didn’t want to be in the same room as poor Jake, even though poor Jake couldn’t hardly move off of his bed and only did so to eat, drink and pee.\u00a0 Not to socialize.<\/p>\n

They left around noon on Christmas Day, taking the poor doggy home, and we were all loaded up with presents.\u00a0 Then it started to snow big soft snowflakes for hours.\u00a0 A perfect ending to a relaxing Christmas Day!<\/p>\n
