Down at the River!

Do you know how hard it is to get everyone to look the same direction at the same time?

An immature Bald Eagle!

The start to Christmas Day over at the Grandkids’ abode…letting sleeping dogs lie…

‘Stache got lots of games this year!

Skeeter seemed happy…

So did Toots!

Her again!

The Dailylife Wife made out with Prairie Chick stuff!

A general view of the chaos.

Mountie Up!

Lugnut got games too!

Dried fruit is in their future…

Mugs, mugs…

…and more mugs! Eight in total by the time the wrapping paper was disposed of.

More Chaos!

She found something she likes better than that purple T-shirt!

I didn’t get left out either. I got a couple of these babies!

A semi successful attempt at the annual Christmas Portrait of the Grandkids”.

And finally: our traditional Prime Rib dinner! Fabulous as always!

“I mean, I really like the horsey thing, but it seems like a lot of commotion just for a stick horse and a sugar cookie…”

DD#1 got an inspirational “don’t murder” sign from me!

And the Dailylife Wife got a Christmas Star ornament ‘Stache made at school!

Opening a present-a-piece…I think Skeeter is getting a Panzerfaust! Well, she seemed happy it was bigger than her, anyway…

Panzerfaust, Stickhorse: it is about the same thing!

Day 358 Part 2

Some strange looking guy showed up for Christmas Eve Dinner…but he brought his own Mountain Dew!

Have to try the hat on little Miss Elfette…

The last one of my stash from Arizona. Time to go back I guess!

Dreams of things to come!

Day 357

Saturday, December 24, 2022

I made a quick trip up to see the Dailylife Parents in Kalispell. A bit snowy! You can see through the haze and blowing snow a lot better through the camera than just with your eyeballs.

My dashboard!

A panorama of Swan Lake,

I got us a gourmet meal at Chik Fa’Lay! My folks are actually in better shape than this slightly distorted photo would lead you to believe…

I was suppose to go to Costco for cheap eggs, but they didn’t open until 10am…the storm was suppose to hit at 11am…I left at 9am. Cold, crunchy and snowy!
