Izzy got up...9:00AM...that'll be the last year for that... This is at Izzy's house...our old "Stick-House"...it is a beautiful home!

Papa got huggs even before the presents got opened...You know...thete is nothing greater than the love of a child...totally unconditional...just pure love...














But then reality had to set in...there was a "Mermaid" kitchen, a " Dora, Pirate Ship" with costumes, and a "Barbie" quad... among miriads of other things...You know, kids get so "overwhelmed" (I hate that word, but here, it fits...) on Christmas...they don't even know what they got until about Spring...






Here is one of Izzy's trees...this pone has lots of her ornaments on it...the tree skirt was crocheted by her
Great Grandmother, "Grammy" ...




By the way...I want that Flamingo ornament!!!

This Christmas was very different for us as I am sure that it was for all of our new-found friends that have chosen "Full Time RVING" as a lifestyle...It was bitter sweet...No one does it like I did it...and that is probably a good thing...It is just really different...We had breakfast at Marilee, Dan and Izzy's...Marilee made a great breakfast casserole...I'm getting the recepie so I can try it out on some of you "down the road"...
