Pre-Christmas festivities

My parents are here, Greta and Carey and Grandma are at a Morristown production of "The Nutcracker," the stockings are hung from the chimney with care, etc. A few shots from the last couple days.

Greta is starting to be more aware of my camera.

Carey said "her heart was full" Saturday afternoon as the entire family decorated sugar cookies. I said, yes, it's full of blood.

Lincoln serenaded us with a Paper Jamz rendition of "Born to be Wild"

Sunday early afternoon neighbor Liz and dog Nellie -- in Santa suit, natch -- came over to exchange gifts.

Lincoln and Jack enjoyed lots of Wii and TV time while their sisters watched The Nutcracker.
