December Part 2

Our yearly trip to the Christmas tree farm followed up with weiners, beans and hot chocolate

The boys aren’t deterred by a little snow

Christmas Eve: Joey the entertainer showed up for his annual performance on Christmas eve.  Being Jewish he has adopted our family to take in the holiday.  We always love having him as it encourages us to pull out the guitars.  This year proved to be a bit tougher on the system as the boys are not sleeping great.  The result was that we were a bit rusty on Christmas morning and therefore have no documentation of Jack opening gifts.

The deciding mistake was that I took a Jamie Oliver drink recipe and put it to use…tequila and pomegranate seeds…tasty but a big kick

Kath and Rob came for a visit.  Our family was sick so they decided not to enter our house.  Maudies if you are reading this you would be proud.  At any rate, we had to make our outdoor visit fun so out came the scooters and jump shots
