We just got the tree finished. Still have the rest of the house to go . . .
I found this really cool Thomas Kinkade Christmas tree.
The cat had to approve the work!
All done decorating. Here is the fireplace.
We actually had a few presents ready for the tree.
Ellen hung the "geek" garland around the patio door. It has all of my Star Wars and Star Trek ornaments.
Ellen had some really nice touches, including the tea set on the bar,
She will get the Christmas table cloth out later.
The old ceramic wreath brings back some nostalgic memories.
We had an early Christmas gathering with some friends from Canyon Country (California)
Mike, Judy and their son, Andy.
Ellen and Mike and Judy's other child, Kim
Game night! Woohoo!
The cherished self portrait!
The Munson's gave us a really cool candle holder set
