Christmas Lights

Mornin' y'all and Merry Christmas!  Ryan was Most Insistent that we all had to get up and go downstairs together to see what Santa brought us.  The hubs and I got chocolate oranges, Daphne got a toy, and Ryan got a bunch of things.  What was he most excited about?  DUCK UNDERWEAR.  My duck-obsessed child can now be fully outfitted in duck items:  duck socks and underwear, duck jammies, a duck hat.  And he can wrap himself up in multiple duck blankets to snuggle with his duck stuffies.  Ducks everywhere.

We opened Christmas presents last night and I got literary tea (can't wait to check that out!) and a book called To Die For:  A Cookbook of Gravestone Recipes which the hubs thinks is terribly weird (it was from my mom) but for reals I am looking forward to reading it.  Ryan got lots of duck things and lots of STEM/building-related things; the hubs got stuff for his RC plane and a new backpack to wear while skiing.  Best of all, none of us got eaten by the Yule Cat because we all got clothes.

Anyway, on to today's card:


I love the lights in the Merry & Bright bundle but I am hoarding the coordinating paper for scrapbook pages (...if I ever get back to making scrapbook pages, I made fewer than 50 this year and usually I'm well over 100), so I paired my lights with some fun stripes from the Snowy Scenes DSP.  This is another card the hubs took into work.

Well, I told the hubs I wanted to relax today, but...I still need to do the dishes.  Maybe sneak another Christmas cookie while I'm at it.  Cheers!
