Stylin'

We're all lookin' GOOD in our new Fulbright Thailand T-Shirts! Once again, Sam was the only one who took the time to touch up his hair in time for this photo.

Chritsmas Stocking Joy

Sam and Dad really couldn't contain themselves upon discovering that Santa filled their Christmas stockings.

Christmas in Review

Here we are - pictured by the tree just before opening our gifts. Dad was the only one who had showered by then, although Sam did take a moment to touch up his hair.

Tippy - look at the Camera! As if.

Even Tippy enjoyed his Christmas Stocking! We tried to capture his joy over receiving a special dog treat. I don't know what I was thinking yelling at him to look at the camera - like he can even hear me...

Christmas Across the Miles

In the midst of a very enjoyable Christmas Eve dinner at the Robnetts, we were happily surprised by an International Call from Thai Bubba! Her timing was perfect - so glad I brought my phone so that we could all chat with Becky on the speakerphone. For a complete photo essay of the Robnett dinner activity, check your email.

For the Girls...

The other night we ended up watching White Christmas. Becky probably won't have the opportunity to watch it, so I've included what I hope it still one of her favorite clips. I think that this was the first time I've watched the whole movie in a few years and I was pleasantly surprised by how it is still such good movie. My favorite scene is the same song as below, but with different performers...no, I am no weird.

Self-Entertaining during the Holiday Season

Speaking of achievements, I have been the sole winner of, "Where's the Pickle?" for the past 8 days. Saturday, after my multiple shots of Espresso, I hid and and found the pickle 6 times in a record 14 minutes! There really ought to be a trophy for that, too.
