The Elephant Was White















The annual White Elephant gift exchange saw some interesting presents this year! From an old sock with a sewing kit, unusually shaped candle, ancient cell phone and a banana in two parts...there were some clever ideas. Good times!

Christmas at Gram & Gramps




























Christmas came early at Grandma and Grandpa's house this year! Everyone piled in to the living room for a raucous present-opening session, which saw a lot of happy faces. Cole and Bobby got to experience their first Christmas and added a cutie-patootie element to the day! Merry Christmas to all!

Shop City













Jay and Emily came up for a day of shopping in the Mission. We hit up MultiKulti, Therapy, Aldea, Ruby, Currents and Paxton Gate...and came away with super good presents! Lunch at Taqueria Cancun was bombata; we'll have to make that a regular stop. When Ad and Emily headed home, Jay and Lil kept shopping, stopping at Bi Rite for some flowers and the creamery for some ice cream. Mmmmmm! What a great day!
