Random Holiday fun

Ashleigh and Kyle met Billie and I up at Big Bear for a few days. It rained the day we got there, then snowed the entire following day. Billie was sick with a bad cold virus, fever included, so we didn't do much but still had a fabulous time.

Burro Canyon shooting range, Christmas eve.

Woops, one of the links on my chains broke, good thing there was no more snow on the road.

The creatures in the cabin...

Digging my car out after a long day of snow.

Billie was too sick to do anything so we stayed in and played lots of games! Very fun and cozy.

The brave snowboarders (or not so much)

Sushi at our favorite revolving sushi bar, thanks Kura!

Hi, I am 12 and I have all sorts of aTiTude.

Christmas

Christmas was spent at my teeny tiny house this year. Mom, Dad, Ashleigh, Kyle, Billie, Ronny, and I were in attendance. We debated whether to stick some people in a hotel due to my lack of space but thought it would be more fun to stay together, and we were right! Had a wonderful time with everyone. The boys spent Christmas eve at the shooting range while us girls managed to purchase myself a new couch at Costco. That was fun. Right. Rented a van at Home Depot, two trips to Costco, and wallllla, we have a couch. Back was a little sore after all the hauling of furniture, thank goodness I am buff ;-)

The stockings were hung on the....door with care.

Modeling our new jammies.

Several times Mom and Ashleigh broke into dance moves, they are weird.

Christmas Eve Dinner

The spread: fresh crab, ham, potatoes, and bread. Salad was planned but we didn't have the appetite for another dish so we skipped the veggies (college degree worthless??)

The cooks! Asheigh and I did the shopping and the cooking, so fun, and a first for the two of us.

Teensy tiny table for the 7 of us. Someday I will live in a larger house and have a larger table, someday....

New Couch

And my cute little key thingy....hangs next to the front door.

My glorious Pier One clearance pillows!
