it always feels more like christmas once the tree is up and lit. we even have it hooked up to a wireless light switch! the top of it is an alien puppet known as "the probinator," especially appropriate when decorating while playing christmas carols as sung by the h.p. lovecraft historical sosciety.
gerrie was the first to send a christmas card, followed by presents from parents, a christmas letter from sven's mom, a picture postcard from leeann & dean, and the usual odd christmas letter from the gormwads (thanks, dan!). we went to joanne's holiday wine & cheese party last night and have been invited to an open house hosted by the parents of the girls who worked on our garden over the summer.
and as an extra special christmas present, michaelmas got his new computer tinuviel today! congratulations!
