After a fun Christmas Eve of house guests, we were back at it for Christmas Day.
We were invited to Patty's (Anthony's mom) for Christmas brunch. The food was delicious and the company was fabulous, too.
After brunch, we made our way back home and Anthony's dad Paul paid us a visit. More gift unwrapping and fortunately, more eating of food. I was worried I wouldn't be able to eat all of the leftovers from Christmas Eve but everyone made a nice dent in what was still left. Anthony doesn't care much for leftovers so it's usually my responsibility to eat leftover food and I struggle to eat it fast enough before it spoils.
I'm posting this blog entry on Christmas night. It's quiet around our house now. Anthony's enjoying his new iPad, JoAnn has gone to her friend's house, and Lucky is wandering around the house somewhere with his new toy making it squeak.
It's supposed to be really cold the next few days in Tucson. It's a good thing Anthony got me warm new socks for Christmas. My feet are going to need the warm fluffiness.
Merry Christmas!

Anthony's friend Bianca delivered a box of honeybuns to our house during the night. |

These will provide breakfast for ol' Ken until the new year |

JoAnn bought Lucky a toy for Christmas |
|
He was a little scared of it at first but once he found out it had a squeaker inside he became very interested |
|
He took it to the bathroom where he would make it squeak and them whine in the same pitch as the squeaker. Adorable. |
|
I tried to get him to play fetch with the toy but he went and got it when I tossed it down the hall and then took it into the bathroom. Fetch game over. |
