Sunday night, we took our annual drive around neighborhoods to see the lights. We get a milk shake first and then enjoy the Christmas music on the car radio/Falco's phone and the lights.
Monday, I took the boys down the conservatory to see the trains and the flower displays. I wanted to take them to the art museum too, but the museum is closed on Mondays/
I did not realize I got the boys in the background. They are definitely brothers, they spent most of the day picking on each other, which irritated me.
The Tyler-Davidson fountain
the boys found some ice to skate on- they were too funny.
"I am king of the world"

Saturday morning at the movie theater. We saw SING. Don't go see it, it is not worth the ticket price.

Rocket got a tie!

Fitbit type trackers for Rocket and me. Thanks to Falco's parents for showing me that we could find knock off brands on Amazon- Rocket has wanted one of these for at least a year.
New slippers for me- work will be so much warmer this winter.
Rocket got a Sega genesis. I sold these game systems when I worked at Software Etc after college. Rocket looked at the graphics on the TV and asked what was wrong. As the dates of the games came up on the screen (1990/1991), he was shocked. I can't believe how far video games have come since then.
Pablo got a new baby now named Krumpus and a new bone.
Give me the krumpus

HUMMMM- what did Falco get
Dory themed food- cereal, mac and cheese, fruit snacks, cookies and the drink cup. He was really happy with this present.
See-happy!
S fell asleep and then Dave fell asleep- too funny
The family, except Mam, left around 2. Falco and I worked on making Beef Wellington for dinner. he is a great chef. I like cooking with him.

It was a good Christmas. Thanks for sharing the day with us. We wish you a Happy holiday season and a joyous new year.
Love and hugs,
Deb
