Christmas Eve...

Was a great one. A 1/2 day at work started the day off but it quickly moved to a beautiful beach afternoon. YES, the beach. A break in the weather led to a lovely CALM afternoon playing in the sand and walking along the water for over an hour.

What came next was the most delish dinner you could hope for. When do you ever have to opportunity to have not only crab, but shark, halibut, and wild steelhead along with sauteed chantrelle mushrooms? Oh I salivate just thinking about it and I am one full lady!

Next came the anxious waiting for Santa's arrival....

cookies.....CHECK!!!

milkerrrrrrrcarrot juice for the reindeer....CHECK!!!

Grapes for the elves.....CHECK!!!!

And we have lift off. Or rather ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

Santa can finally come.

What a wonderful day!
