A Look Back and Forward

I begrudgingly completed my most dreaded task yesterday afternoon: disrobing the Christmas tree of its splendor, delicately packing away the ornaments, and yanking the lights from the branches. I swept up the needles, took the boxes to basement, and gazed at our little tree. Next year will here all too soon. For now, I'll relish the promise of a fresh new year and leave you with one last glimpse of Rudolph. 

happy boy

ripping paper is so much fun! 

whoa! is this for me?!
