Santa came to our house this year and dropped a load of loot....we must have been awful good!
Please note the amount of "Toys" that we had. Remember that there is no child under the age of 17 yrs in our home!!!!
Zach received his 'customary' nutcrakers. He is about to run us out of house and home with them. Each Christmas becomes a chore in where to place each one. He now has over 50!
Santa filled our Stockings with toys that poop jelly beans! They are hilarious. Mine is the cow.
She sings "Jingle Bells" as she poops her brown jellies!
Tony has started a collection of Bobble-head Star War Characters. Darth Vader will join the place of honor with Tony's Yoda Bobble Head.
Zach received his 'coveted' Playstation 3' this year. I am not sure why we had to get ANOTHER
game system. This one is placed in the living room with the TV. Ugh...now I'll never get to watch a TV program. Thank Goodness for DVR!!!
Zach was so enraptured with his Playstation that he couldn't even take the time to pose for the camera!
Zach and Tony received Jeff Dunham dolls. (Yes, I said dolls!) They talk and give their famous lines at the touch of a button. Tony's doll is Peanut and Zach's is Achmed the Terrorist.
Silence! I'll killlllllllll you:)
A closer look at the dolls. Can you believe that Zach and Tony are beyond thrilled to have these bad lil' boys??!!??! Men and their toys!
Zach recieved his normal grinch boxer shorts. This is a tradition. The only thing different is that he refused to model them for the camera! (Over his PJ's...where is your mind going?)
Kiss Army is alive and well in my house. Those boys love to ham it up. They play around with this kind of stuff all of the time!
Zach received his Senior Ring. He was elated. Unfortunately, it didn't fit well. This ring runs small. I am hoping and praying the company will let us resize it and not charge an additional fee.
A closer look.
Mamma got a ring, too!!!! I must have been gooooooooood!!!! I love it. Isn't it gorgeous?!
Look at the details on the shaft. Amazing! Tony is a freaking genious! He can have all of the toys in the world. Just bring me the jewelry!!!!:)
I also received this Bombay Chest as an Anniversary/Christmas/Birthday gift. When I told Alan that I received a chest for Christmas he said "Tony is getting you a boob job for Christmas?!?!?"
....that boy is a perv. Hee Hee!
That is all for now. I am closing down this book of a post. My fingers are tired and I am sleepy. I think a nap is in order.
I wish all of you a very Merry Christmas and the very best of New Years.
Love,
We have always taken great pride in our front yard. It's not a large space..but we attempt to make the most out of what we have. From the looks of it now...we have some work to do. Florida experienced a cold front for two weeks straight with the temps reaching the high of 35 degrees on a couple of days. This is what is left of that front....
This tree had large bannanna leaves that would completely shade the light into my kitchen window. It was relaxing to watch and to hear the rustle of the leaves rub against each other from the ocean breeze. I am not certain it is salvageable.
This is what is left of the plant grouping located under our flag. It looked idyllic at one time...I might be able to save the bush but the other plant is toast!
I think I will have to rip up all of the plants and purchase new ones. It's a shame these didn't survive. They were purchased as 88 cent starters 3 years ago. They were almost fully grown and encompassed the entire base of the tree. So sad.....
Looks like its time for new plantings for the entrance way.
