Christmas 2013

We went to vigil mass on Christmas Eve.  My Cadet was looking pretty handsome in his freshly dry cleaned uniform.
Peanut waited patiently until about 8:30.  We walked Buddy then woke up Pumpkin.  Merry Christmas!
 Buddy was a trooper.  He wore his Christmas stripes all day!
Pumpkin gave Peanut a swimming brief wrapped in a cardboard tube.  Pumpkin claims that "real" swimmers wear briefs.  Peanut wore his to practice this morning.  We will see if he ever wears it again!
Pumpkin got lots of practical gifts.  Our challenge is to figure out the best way to get them back to the Academy.  He might have to schlep them on the plane via Florida.

We finished off the day having family over for dinner.  My FIL requested hot dogs with chili last year. It stuck for this year.  It was very simple.  I think we got off easy.  Wonderful holidays!
Now…my prayer is to slow down the clock and enjoy every minute of these two days!!
