Yep, catching up. Don't judge me.

Merry Christmas!

Hey, the decorations are still up, right?

One more year!

I thought Andrew might be questioning Christmas mythology this year. Then he made this card for Sir Roger, our Elf on the Shelf. Looks like I have a one-year reprieve.

Hey, where's Perry?

Oh, there he is!

While we were at it, Matthew wanted me to photograph his favorite Christmas gifts this year.

Christmas Monsters

I just asked them to hug each other, not brutalize each other.

Andrew's Christmas

A bit baffled by the Silly Putty, but otherwise he had a wonderful morning.

A message from Santa

Note: Sir Roger is our Elf on the Shelf. I bet we're one of the few houses that has a knighted elf watching over us.

Breakfast with Santa

I'm a touch disappointed, they should know how to pose for a photo better than this.

Christmas tree decorating

Oh yeah. We make this look good.

The piece de resistance

Shhhh ... We're tree hunting.

I really don't want to complain.  We haven't seen significant rain around here in at least 9 months.  On the other hand, did the ground have to get soaked the very weekend we went trouncing around a farm?

By the time we were done, the boys' shoes were 3 times their normal size and weight.  Those were left in the trunk and Andrew and Matthew rode home without shoes on.  They're still talking about it.
