Pictures from Christmas Eve

Better late than never I say.



I wish I'd taken more pictures, and I managed (once again) to leave myself completely out of the pictures again (I'm sure Freud would have something to say about this practice).



Sierra's friend Roger came, and my good friend Tom ( [livejournal.com profile] texasts  ) blessed us with his presence. Marcel's daughter Felicitas and her baby Kalob (not shown - how did I not take that doll-babies picture?).

We ate southwestern corn chowder, drop biscuits, Turkey, dressing, spicy sweet potato wedges, and braised greens - and for dessert.... Marcel made an authentic Black Forest cake. We drank Albarino - a Spanish white wine that was new to me, but everyone agreed it's a keeper.

Nice! I do the same thing with pictures :)

Your ornaments are beautiful too. Will they last after this year or do they have to be re-made again next year?

Blessed? Blessed?!?

I think it was the other way around, darlin'...

I love that first one of the table with food and drink and the Christmas tree behind.

That's so great that Tom is there and I love his smile :)

Your handmade tree decorations are special -especially that Gingerbread Man.

Roger looks nice :)

I see your cat!

I guess you're not in the shots because you were behind the camera. And probably holding the baby :)
