Christmas Day 2020

A year like no other. For the first time ever in my adult life I spent Christmas without any extended family. We were with Beth and Debbie and Dave virtually. But it was just the 3 of us at home. 

Throw back to 2014.

Stockings for the pets!

For the people.

The tree!


Our virtual Christmas gift opening!

Ally loves stockings. She is so thrilled with all the little things. Jewelry, makeup, skin care. Just delighted.




Cloey was crazy so we crated her and let Daisy roam free.

Which meant she was never far from Ally.

Ally and I have been so excited to give Becky her gift. 

A PlayStation 5. Becky who loves video games has never had a game console. Ally has been really looking forward to playing with mama.

A new set of graphic novels from Grandma and Poppy.

Some cat paw socks from Daisy so they can be twins.

New pajamas for Cloey and Ugg slippers from Great Aunt Martha and Uncle Phil. 

Its was a sock filled Christmas. We each got cozy slipper socks from Debbie and hand knit socks from Beth.

Ally was thrilled with her new Air Jordan sneakers from Grandpa Frank.

Debbie felted us each something, Ally got a gorgeous Santa.

Handmade by Debbie. 

Beth knit me a scarf.

Ally was surprised and thrilled with a spa towel warmer.

We got a beautiful sign from Aunt Martha and Uncle Phil.


Ally was ecstatic to get a new IPad with an iPad pencil.

Playing Call of Duty on the new PlayStation!

Cloey dancing on 2 legs for her stocking treat.

Ally all settled in her bed with her new device holder from Beth watching her most favorite 2020 TV show Vampire Diaries.
