Christmas 2005

I hope everyone had wonderful holidays!

Myself? I feel really fortunate and blessed to have had such a peaceful, enjoyable time with my family.

This is a picture of my parent's Christmas tree. This is really special to me because for the last 3 years I have not had my own Christmas tree - my cozy, NYC apartment can't quite hold 2 people, a cat and a tree on top of it.



Here I am on Christmas morn, unshowered, glasses and holding my "Pig Jacks" that I just opened. Yup, it is what it sounds like. Instead of picking up 'jacks" you pick up "pigs". I loved it. Hard to play though and I did end up leaving them at my folk's house. Sorry about that.



This is me with my dad and grandfather "Poppy".



My finance - love you, Stephen!



The Christmas Chicken - the true hit of the holiday. I only wish I could post a recording. You have to hear this chicken cry to believe it. So funny!




Here's to more celebration everyday in 2006!
