Christmas in the country

We had a wonderful Christmas weekend at the cabin. Thanks Mom and Dad!!!
Here are some photos from Christmas Eve Day.

We all decided to go up to the ridge to see if Santa would be feeding the "reindeer" like he has in years past. Sure enough, there he was. It was very exciting!!!

As the oven went on early to cook the prime rib roast so did the smoke detector...for almost 2 hours!!! To get out of the house we decided to do a photo shoot with the girls. It was a gorgeous day but very cold. I don't remember when their coats and hats came off but I think all the modeling must have made them hot. ;)

There were 10 adults, 4 kids, 5 dogs, 3 cats, and a partridge in a pear tree in the house.
One-Eyed Willie sought refuge outside in the sun.

Hoping everyone had a wonderful Christmas!!!
