A wonderful Christmas

Merry Christmas to you all!!! And best wishes for a wonderful, healthy, and happy new year!

We have had a great family Christmas in Roanoke this year.  Dad and my daughters Heather and Nikki are all here.  We started with a traditional unhealthy breakfast - cinnamon rolls. Yum!  Nikki and dad are waiting, only somewhat patiently.


After a quick breakfast, we gathered in the living room to exchange presents.  Nikki helped me sort them out while Luke built a fire (not really cold enough for one, but it IS Christmas!)


It is good to have dad here.



Heather is slowing off new bull riding earrings with the roaring fire as a back drop.



Smokey has kept a low profile - too many people in her house.  She couldn't stay away completely, though, and watched the gift opening from a safe distance.



Santa Luke enjoyed Christmas, too!



Nikki and Heather are in Ronaoke now, visiting family on their dad's side of the tree.  We are relaxing (aka napping for dad) and will have left-overs later.  Tomorrow Heather will return to NC and I'll take dad back to Charlotte.  Tuesday will be preparation day and hopefully we'll be able to leave for Latitudes on Wednesday.

Again, a Merry Christmas and love to all!!!
