under the magnolia tree

 It was a very happy holiday season around here...

 I snapped these photos right before the gingerbread party

 and decided they would be as good as it gets for a christmas card.

 So, even though they were a bit blurry and George's shirt is soaking wet with water,

 they sum up the holiday season for us...

music, dancing, laughter, silliness, and fun!

And, these are the crazy trees George made for me.  I love them.  :)

 It was a holly jolly christmas!
