I don't know if Ginger is looking for Santa or watching the turkey flock in the back yard. She did like her gifts, especially the quacking pull toy Chris, Tim and Maya gave her.
Here's a glamor shot of the cutest puppy in the world.
Our cousin, Jo Ann, was almost a Christmas baby, so we started the festivities on her birthday two days before Christmas. (Although we really started with a Cajun dinner my sister prepared the day before--we just didn't have anything specific to celebrate yet.)
My sister, Becky, was able to get here for the holidays (that's her on the left with my mom and Tim).
Uncle Ron read to Maya while we waited for dinner.
Our best Christmas present might have been the news that Chris got tenure at the University of Texas. She's worked very hard and certainly deserves this honor.
In addition to engineering software, she also acts as a sous chef for Tim. Usually he does all the work himself, but this Christmas there were so many dishes he enlisted Chris, his brother Arthur, and his mom, Audrey.
Here's Audrey.
We not only had a lot of people at Chris and Tim's but also a lot of dogs. Here's a subset of the six that came to dinner.
Becky brought Maya a tea set, so Maya had a tea party with Becky and her aunt Jocelyn.
We got Maya a scooter (with the appropriate safety gear) and she took to it like a champ. Note the cute boots she got for Christmas.
And of course, there was turkey.
